Rent a 3 to 7 ton refrigerated truck for bulk chilled distribution with Refrigerated Truck Rental Dubai — holding 0°C to 8°C across higher pallet volumes than a van can carry, with tail-lift options for warehouse-style loading.
AED 480
per day · city rate, driver included
A refrigerated truck is a 3 to 7 ton chilled vehicle built for volume — bulk distribution runs between a distribution centre and multiple retail stores, rather than a single delivery stop. Our Refrigerated Truck Rental Dubai service is suitable for businesses that need to move larger chilled loads efficiently across multiple locations.
The tipping point from van to truck is usually pallet count. A 3 ton chiller truck can handle more cargo than a standard refrigerated van, while a 7 ton chiller truck is better suited to heavier or higher-volume distribution. Once a route regularly needs more than a van can carry, or the load is heavier per pallet than a van’s payload rating allows, a refrigerated truck is the more efficient choice — one truck run instead of two van trips.
Supermarket and retail distribution accounts for most of our refrigerated truck rental bookings, alongside catering companies supplying multiple event sites from a central kitchen on the same day. Businesses can also choose a chiller truck with driver when they need support with scheduled deliveries and multi-stop distribution.
Warehouses built around pallet trucks and dock levellers move faster with a tail-lift-equipped truck — cargo goes straight from the warehouse floor to the truck bed without hand-carrying. Not every site needs it: a store with street-level access and a small order often loads faster without one. Tell dispatch your loading setup and we’ll match the right configuration.

From, per day
Two sizes cover most bulk distribution routes, both driven by a licensed heavy-vehicle driver as standard.
3-Ton Refrigerated Truck
AED 480 /day
7-Ton Refrigerated Truck
Daily rates start at AED 480 for a 3-ton truck and AED 690 for a 7-ton truck, both with a licensed driver included as standard — unlike vans, refrigerated trucks are not offered as self-drive.
Per-pallet, a truck usually works out cheaper than running the equivalent volume across multiple van trips, once you account for the extra driver time and fuel two van runs would need. Monthly distribution contracts bring the day-rate down further, which is standard for supermarket and retail accounts running the same route on a fixed schedule.

Yes, tail-lift-equipped trucks are available on request. Mention your loading setup when you request a quote so dispatch can confirm the right configuration.
Up to 14 pallets on the 3-ton truck, or up to 22 pallets on the 7-ton truck, depending on pallet size and load weight.
Usually, once volume exceeds what one van trip can carry — you avoid the extra driver time and fuel a second van run would need. Ask dispatch to compare options for your specific route.

"We restock six branches from one distribution centre every morning. Switching from two vans to one 7-ton truck with a tail-lift cut our loading time in half and dropped the monthly bill."
"Our florist chain moves stock before 6am daily. The chiller van is always pre-cooled and on time — no wilted deliveries since we switched."
Tell us the pallet count, and dispatch confirms the right truck and a fixed price.
