Fleet

Our leased fleet of delivery trucks has an average life of less than three years. All of our trucks are fully refrigerated and fitted with curtains that allow us to offer deliveries at the optimum temperatures which are monitored via real-time GPS technology. We pre-cool our trucks prior to loading and stack all products on pallets. This maximizes shelf life and the quality of product while securing the integrity of your delivery. All of our trucks are equipped with Nextel radios that are programmed with technology enabling our management team and customer service department to monitor the sequence of deliveries for each route. This improves communication with our customers if a truck happens to run into a delay due to traffic, or other unforeseen circumstances.

 

Facilities

We welcome all of our customers, both current and future, to tour our facility and see the difference as compared to our competition. You won’t find sprayed on insulation at Royal.
