Reefer Breakdown Coverage – What It Includes

Reefer breakdown coverage (often an endorsement on your cargo policy) protects against cargo spoilage when your refrigeration unit experiences a sudden mechanical or electrical failure. Key protections include:

• Cargo loss reimbursement for spoiled perishables due to reefer unit breakdowns (e.g., compressor failure, fan issues, electrical shorts, or power interruptions)
• Coverage for sudden, accidental temperature loss despite proper maintenance and care
• Potential inclusion of disposal costs for ruined goods (up to policy limits)

This safeguards your business from major financial hits when temperature-sensitive loads are compromised by equipment malfunction—not repairs to the reefer unit itself, gradual wear, fuel issues, or driver error (check policy details for exact terms).
