    Would anyone happen to know where I could get a roller bed installed inside a 53ft reefer trailer? Does anyone have an idea on how much that would cost? Its one of those rollers that lift up when needed and down when not needed. They work on air pressure not electronic. Thanks for any advice you could send my way

    If you want it installed I would start with calling the trailer manufacturer.

    And I don't know if this will help but when I worked for Cowan many years ago they had a lot of those trailers. If I remember correctly we used them for airports with mail.

    Their main office is in Baltimore Maryland. Maybe they have any of those trailers they would part with?

    They are used for air freight cargo boxes. Ours were fixed to the floor. Those trailers were designated roller bed. Never left the FedEx system.

    Here is one that stays in the floor and is pneumatically raised when needed.
