Cambro GoBoxes: Styles, Options, and Applications
While many models of Cam GoBoxes are highly versatile, some are a bit more specialized, so we'll walk you through all the features and specifications that Cambro offers.
Top Loaders
Top-loading GoBoxes come in full and half sizes, including models with extra-large, ergonomic handles or a carrying strap. The open interior allows for versatility in use, and accessories are available to customize the GoBox's internal configuration.
Front Loaders
Front-loaded GoBoxes feature a hinged door on the front of the unit that opens to allow packaged meals or trays to be slid inside. These can be outfitted with shelves, Camchillers®, or Camwarmers® depending on the needs of your operation.
Half-size Cam GoBoxes
The top-loading GoBoxes are also available in half-size models. All half-size models can accommodate one half-size food pan, which is perfect for smaller deliveries. Some include a carrying strap for easier transport.
GoBox for Meal Trays
Ideal for schools, relief agencies, and central kitchens, these top-loading GoBoxes are designed to hold stacked trays of food for efficient distribution. The varying capacities allow for different numbers of trays, and these trays can be further configured in the GoBox based on size and arrangement.
Tall Beverage Box
For streamlined beverage service, these containers are constructed to accommodate tall bottles, such as wine or water bottles. As many as 12 standard wine bottles can fit securely inside the container to prevent breakage; this model can also fit certain trays and takeaway containers.
Milk Crate Box
Perfect for school lunch lines, the milk crate box is designed to hold a 13-inch by 13-inch milk crate, which typically holds 50 half-pint milk cartons. These boxes feature a top-loading construction, molded-in handles, and an adjustable carrying strap.

Choosing Your Cam GoBox Accessories
There are a range of accessories and add-ons you can purchase to customize the functionality of your Cam GoBox. Some accessories are only compatible with certain GoBox models, so make sure you read the product descriptions before purchasing to confirm the accessory is compatible with your particular GoBox.
- Beverage Holder: These interlocking units are made to hold three cups each and can accommodate cups ranging from 8 ounces to 32 ounces in capacity. These are suitable for either hot or cold drinks, and they can be used to hold six drinks in a half-size, top-loading GoBox, or as many as 15 drinks in a full-size, top-loading GoBox.
- Camchiller: Keep food chilled for longer periods by adding a Camchiller to a front- or top-loading Cam GoBox. Freeze your Camchiller overnight, then slide it into a front loader, or set it on top of food containers inside a top loader. Camchiller insert kits are compatible with certain models and can boost the effects of the Camchiller.
- Camwarmer: Place your Camwarmer in a hot water bath for 35 minutes, then set it in the bottom of your GoBox to keep food at an appetizing temperature while it's waiting to be served. Camwarmers are available to suit particular GoBox models, including some half-size models.
- ThermoBarrier®: Specifically designed for front-loading GoBoxes, ThermoBarriers slide into the unit to create a barrier between hot and cold food. These are perfect for delivering multiple kinds of food in one Cam GoBox while keeping all items at their intended temperature.
- Flip Lids: Made to fit most top-loading GoBoxes, a flip lid allows for quick, convenient stocking or serving without needing to fully remove the lid. This helps retain temperature and prevent contamination; flip lids are suitable for both hot and cold temperatures.
- Plastic ID Labels: To enable quick identification of each container's contents, ID labels available in different colors slide into grooves on the outside of a GoBox. This allows you to know what's stored inside of the GoBox without disturbing the temperature by removing the lid or dismantling a stack of GoBoxes.
- Cam GoBox Extenders: Extenders fit onto a top-loading GoBox to add 4 inches of height – a great choice for establishments frequently dealing with large delivery volumes.
- Camdolly® Compact: The Camdolly is made of durable ABS plastic and features four swivel casters, two of which are outfitted with brakes. It's capable of holding 300 pounds, so it can be used to efficiently transport stacks of loaded GoBoxes.
Why Choose the Cam GoBox?
A Cambro Cam GoBox allows you to keep food cold or warm without the use of electricity, cutting down on energy costs in addition to the weight of the container. Most models are safe to support temperatures between -40 and 190 degrees Fahrenheit and are made of expanded polypropylene foam that's 100-percent recyclable, dishwasher safe, and resistant to staining and damage from many types of oil, grease, and chemicals. Most models can also be stacked for further convenience when it comes to storage and transportation.
