The 1.5-Ton Chiller Van gives 12 m³ and six euro pallets at 0°C to +5°C, still on a light vehicle licence. It is the workhorse for hotel supply chains and central-kitchen-to-outlet distribution, where a route needs more volume than a 1-ton but cannot accept the access limits of a truck.

The Middle Ground That Most Routes Actually Need

Half of the operators who ask us for a 3-ton truck are better served by this van. At 12 m³ it carries fifty percent more than the 1-ton while remaining a light vehicle: no heavy licence, no truck-corridor timing restrictions, and no problem entering a hotel service yard or a multi-storey loading bay.

It is the standard choice for central production kitchens in Al Quoz, Ras Al Khor and Dubai Investment Park distributing to six to ten outlets a day, because that job needs volume in the morning and agility for the rest of the round.

  • 1,500 kg payload, ~12 m³ cooled volume
  • Six euro pallets
  • Light vehicle licence
  • Dual rear doors for full-width loading
  • Hanging rail configuration available
  • Multi-zone bulkhead option

Multi-Drop Loading Discipline

With six pallets and a long box, load sequence matters far more than it does in the 1-ton. Load in reverse drop order so the first delivery is nearest the doors; a driver who has to climb over four pallets to reach the first crate holds the door open for three minutes instead of forty seconds, and does that at every stop.

Where the load mixes product with different sensitivities, place the most temperature-critical items in the position the mapping favours, nearest the evaporator discharge, away from the door aperture. The rear metre of any refrigerated box is the warmest zone on a multi-drop route.

Hanging Rails, Bulkheads and Configuration Options

This class supports a hanging rail configuration for carcass and hanging meat work, which is a common requirement for Al Aweer market suppliers and butcher networks, and a movable bulkhead option for running a small frozen zone alongside the main chilled space.

Both need to be requested at booking so the vehicle is prepared and washed down before delivery rather than converted on arrival.

Hotel and Institutional Supply

Hotels are the most demanding receiving environment in Dubai: shared goods lifts, narrow service yards, fixed delivery windows and strict documentation at the receiving bay. A vehicle that holds temperature while stationary through a forty-minute ramp wait protects the load through the slot you actually get, not the one you were promised.

For institutional catering, schools, hospitals, staff canteens, the same van covers fixed morning windows comfortably and provides the timestamped delivery record that these contracts usually specify.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a heavy licence for the 1.5-ton chiller van?

No. It remains a light vehicle, so a standard UAE light licence covers it, and it is not subject to the peak-hour truck corridor restrictions that apply to 3-ton and larger vehicles.

Can it carry hanging meat?

Yes, a hanging rail configuration is available on this class. Request it at booking so the vehicle is prepared and washed down before delivery rather than converted on arrival.

How should I load a six-pallet multi-drop route?

Load in reverse drop order so the first delivery sits nearest the doors. A driver climbing over four pallets holds the door open for three minutes at every stop, which is where multi-drop cold chain fails.

Can it run a frozen compartment as well as chilled?

Yes, with the movable bulkhead option a small frozen zone can run alongside the main chilled space. It must be specified at booking.

Is it suitable for hotel deliveries?

It is our most common hotel supply vehicle. It fits standard service yards, holds temperature during ramp waits, and produces the timestamped delivery record that hotel and institutional contracts usually require.

Should I take this or a 3-ton truck?

If your route has more than three or four stops, or touches Downtown, Marina, Deira or older industrial blocks, take the 1.5-ton. The 3-ton wins only on bulk single drops into sites with proper dock access.

Need deep-freeze instead of chilled?

The 1.5-Ton Chiller Van runs at 0°C to +5°C for chilled cargo. For ice cream, frozen meat and seafood at -18°C to -25°C, use our deep-freeze fleet instead.
