Why You Should Pack a Bag of Ice for a Road Trip

There’s nothing like the freedom of the open road—windows down, your favorite playlist on full blast, and snacks within arm’s reach. But if you’re heading out without a properly packed cooler, your adventure might turn lukewarm fast. Bringing a bag of high-quality ice can make or break your journey—and when it comes to long-lasting chill, Long Island Ice & Fuel’s packaged cylindrical ice is your road trip MVP.

Here’s why no backseat cooler should be without it:

Keep Drinks Cold (Without Constant Pit Stops)

Warm water or flat soda? No thanks. With slow-melting cylindrical ice, your favorite beverages stay perfectly chilled mile after mile. There’s no need to pull over for more ice or buy overpriced drinks at a rest stop—your cooler becomes a rolling fridge. Our dense, uniform ice lasts longer than homemade cubes, keeping your essentials crisp and refreshing.

Preserve Snacks, Meals & Medications

Whether you’re meal-prepping for the ride, storing fresh produce, or bringing along temperature-sensitive medications, Long Island Ice & Fuel’s ice ensures safe storage. Its cylindrical shape resists clumping and melts evenly, so your food stays dry and your items stay safe.

Bonus tip: Pack your cooler like a pro—ice on the bottom and top layers creates the ideal chill zone.

Beat the Heat Anytime, Anywhere

Stuck in traffic on I-95? Pulled over at a scenic overlook with no shade in sight? You’ll be glad you packed extra ice. From instant cold compresses to emergency chill-downs for kids or pets, ice is more than a luxury—a road trip survival tool.

Our clean, food-grade ice is sealed and ready for anything.
