What affects a Utility 48ft Aluminum Reefer's value
Length (53 ft is the standard), type (dry van, reefer or flatbed), floor and roof condition, tire and suspension wear, and, on reefers, the age and hours of the refrigeration unit are the biggest value drivers.
Two Utility 48ft Aluminum Reefer trailers of the same year can differ by tens of thousands of dollars depending on condition, tires, floor and roof, suspension, and where they're sold. That's why a real market value has to come from actual comparable sales, not a formula.
