PDQ chooses Thermo King

Ice sculptures are just some of the many time critical, temperature sensitive items transported by refrigerated courier company, Pretty Darn Quick.

PDQ opted for Thermo King

The company specialises in urgent, temperature controlled deliveries, guaranteeing its customers that their consignment will reach its destination in the same condition as it left their premises.

In order to fulfil this guarantee, PDQ needs to have temperature control equipment that they can trust, which is why it chooses Thermo King. Operations Director, Brian Brennan, explained:
“We have used Thermo King for the past seven years as they provide good quality products and a national back-up service, which is second to none. We have recently purchased our fourth V-300 and also use the V-200 units. We deliver throughout the UK to food manufacturers, airlines and hospitals but we also deliver ice sculptures to big events such as the MTV Awards and the Champions League at Old Trafford. The sculptures only have a ten hour span so we need equipment that won’t let us down.”

PDQ operates a fleet of high specification refrigerated vehicles from Chester, Wakefield and Greenford, Middlesex, filling the gap that exists between the big freight movers who can’t deliver small and urgent consignments of temperature controlled goods, and the small local courier services that cannot guarantee a nationwide collection and delivery service.

The V-200 is a high performance refrigeration unit for small trucks and vans. It features high cooling capacity on the road and on electric standby, and is designed for deep frozen or chill applications.

Likewise the Thermo King V-300 has unmatched reliability and offers total versatility. The V-300 MAX is the most powerful unit on the market in its class with exceptional temperature pull-down and recovery capability essential when delivering to a number of customers in one day.
