Pittsburgh, PA (November 4th, 2014) - Just in time for the winter shipping season PITT OHIO has announced enhancements to its Heat Track service offering which provides shippers with Protect From Freezing (PFF) LTL service. Shippers can safely ship their Protect From Freezing shipments with PITT OHIO Monday through Friday when temperatures range down to 15 degrees Fahrenheit. PITT OHIO shippers can use PITT OHIO´s Heat Track service to safely transport Protect From Freezing shipments to customers in PITT OHIO’s core service area, New England and Canada.

Heat Track Plus, the company´s newest LTL service offering, protects freezable shipments during periods of extreme cold when other LTL carriers would normally implement a protect from freeze shipment embargo. Heat Track Plus is a cost effective temperature protect solution which leverages lab tested thermal packaging and PITT OHIO’s reliable transit to safely speed protect from freeze shipments from origin to destination when temperatures fall to zero degrees Fahrenheit. Heat Track Plus service is available in PITT OHIO´s next-day service lanes. PITT OHIO provides Heat Track Plus shippers with extra claims insurance by offering protect from freeze damage coverage at no extra cost.
