“Everybody is just looking for dry ice,” said Savenor.
Why is that? At a temperature of minus 109 degrees Fahrenheit, it’s cold enough to transport Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine which will be delivered to hospitals and long term care homes first.
“We’ve gotten requests from as far away as California, Seattle, Arkansas,” said Savenor. “You name it they called us.”
The dry ice either comes in pellets or blocks. Either way about 100,000 pounds of it gets shipped every day.
“We’re delivering to whomever calls us,” said Savenor.
