Yes. Chewy Fulfillment Center (3280 Lightner Rd, Vandalia) is a priority account. Dock-level emergencies, reefer compressor failures, air brake issues, electrical problems, see mobile tech response within 24–30 minutes. Coordinate with dock management or your carrier to notify RRN immediately. Pre-dock inspections are recommended to catch issues before entering the facility, especially during peak season (November–December, July–August).

July and August temperatures (85–92°F) cause peak engine and brake stress, especially on I-75 northbound grade through Beavercreek. Fully loaded reefers experience compressor strain and cooling system failures. Air brakes overheat and may fade on grades. Pre-summer inspection of cooling systems, reefer compressor charge, and brake condition is strongly recommended. RRN mobile techs carry specialized brake cooling and reefer diagnostic equipment.

April and May heavy rain swells Beaver Creek and tributary streams. ODOT may post height restrictions on I-70 eastbound near creek crossings, limiting double-stack container traffic. If posted, follow signs or plan alternate route via I-75/I-675. Water typically recedes within 1–2 days. RRN dispatch monitors ODOT alerts and notifies active carriers of restrictions and timeline estimates.

If you experience total or partial air brake loss northbound on I-75 grade, engage engine brake (if equipped), downshift to lowest gear, and use shoulder or off-ramp if available. Call RRN or 911 immediately. Do not continue on grade. RRN mobile air brake specialist will diagnose and repair on-site or arrange emergency tow. Emergency procedures and RRN phone number should be posted in your cab.

RRN operates 24/7/365, including holidays and peak seasons (November–December, summer produce rush). During peak season, we increase mobile tech staffing and pre-position units at Chewy, Caterpillar, and truck stops. Response times may be 1–3 minutes longer during peak due to high incident volume, but we maintain sub-35-minute guarantees. Pre-notification of high-volume loads helps us optimize dispatch.
