The deadline for reefer compliance was January 1, and California’s Air Resources Board (CARB) is already fining carriers for continuing to use non-compliant transport refrigeration units (TRU) within the state’s borders.

CarrierWatch gives you instant access to a list of carriers whose reefer fleets are fully CARB-compliant. You can search the DAT Registry for a compliant carrier by simply checking a box:

CarrierWatch makes it easy for you to find the right truck, including CARB-compliant reefers. Now, if you want to know more about the going rate per mile in that California-bound lane this week, search DAT RateView!
