What's the purpose of the little door on the back of a reefer trailer, and why are they sometimes open while in transit ?
Hey Bassman Ia. got a question for you ...
What's the purpose of the little door on the back of a reefer trailer, and why are they sometimes open while in transit ?
Ranting incoherently
They have one in front also, open them to let air go through the trailer and let gasses out. A lot of vegetables ripen on the trailer on the way to market.
Always figured it was for air circulation. I used to work around these a lot. Especially with older ones, when the trailers are full, the stuff closest to the reefer can freeze and the stuff in the back can get too warm.

I always told my daughters that it was to let the penguins out.

Yep, air circulation. Take a load of something like potatoes or onions, no need to run the reefer, but they need air circulation.
