A refrigerated trailer must be pre-cooled and verified before loading temperature-sensitive product. This pre-trip checklist covers the reefer unit inspection per FSMA Sanitary Transportation Rule requirements: engine function test, set point programming in °F, pre-cool verification, defrost check, door seals, interior sanitation, and fuel level.

Completing this checklist before every trip ensures cold chain integrity from the start and creates documentation for shipper/carrier agreements and FDA compliance.
