4.2m Blue Plate Chick Truck for Hatchery Delivery
If you're running a hatchery and need a truck for short-distance chick delivery, the 4.2m blue plate option is worth a look. It runs on a standard light-duty chassis, GVW 4,495kg, so anyone with a C license can drive it. That alone makes hiring drivers a lot easier.
The body is built the same way refrigerated trucks are — FRP panels with 80mm of insulation on every side. Front air ducts and side intake vents create a natural airflow system that keeps things fresh inside. You can also add an AC unit if needed.
