When a shipment has to stay frozen, every minute and every degree counts. Red Fox Medical Courier provides cryogenic and dry ice medical transport for laboratories, research facilities, blood centers, and life sciences companies that move deep-frozen specimens, biologics, and temperature-critical materials. It is the same discipline behind our validated cold chain for refrigerated shipments, extended to the temperatures where a single excursion can destroy an irreplaceable sample.

What We Move on Dry Ice and Deep Cold

  • Frozen specimens and biological samples moving between labs, hospitals, and research sites
  • Biologics and temperature-critical therapies that must hold their frozen state from pickup to delivery
  • Cryopathology materials, a service line our Michigan network has run for years
  • Reference lab send-outs packed on dry ice for same-day airport handoffs to national laboratories

How Cold Chain Integrity Is Maintained

Deep-frozen transport is unforgiving, so the process is built around documentation rather than hope. Shipments move in validated packaging matched to the required temperature range, with dry ice quantities appropriate to the transit time. Temperature handling is documented from pickup through delivery, chain of custody is recorded at every handoff, and GPS tracking with proof of delivery is standard on every run, the same standards that govern our lab courier routes and STAT deliveries.

Drivers Trained for What They Carry

Our own W-2-style drivers, no subcontractors, handle every cryogenic run. They are trained in specimen handling, bloodborne pathogen safety, and HIPAA, HITECH, and PHI compliance, with a Business Associate Agreement in place before the first pickup. A frozen shipment gets the same accountability as everything else we carry: every package is a patient.

Coverage Across Eight States

Cryogenic and dry ice transport is available across our 45+ city, eight-state network, including Florida, Michigan, Wisconsin, and New York. Scheduled routes, on-demand pickups, and STAT dispatch all support frozen shipments.
