From the F88 to the FH, Van Waveren Transport recently proudly put the 75th Volvo into use.
Volvo FH tractor in ADR version
The latest addition is a Volvo FH tractor in ADR version with all conceivable safety options on board. Van Waveren specializes in tank transport of hazardous substances. Es van Waveren is assisted in the daily management by his daughters Marga, Esther and Annemarie. For Shell, the company works in shifts in the domestic fuel distribution, and the company also drives tank containers throughout Europe for various clients.
Focus on safety with driving, loading and unloading
Van Waveren offers added value through both people and equipment. All drivers are in possession of an ADR diploma, but have also followed courses in the field of incident control, safe driving (Behavior Based Safety) and safe loading and unloading. The strict requirements that the company must meet for fuel distribution have been passed on to other tank transport. In addition, at Van Waveren Transport, we are at the forefront of implementing safety systems. After all, safety, precision and expertise are of great importance in the transport of dangerous goods.
Good relationship with Volvo Truck Center
The fact that it has now reached the 75th Volvo is down to Volvo Trucks’ safety systems and its relationship with Volvo Truck Center. Es van Waveren: “Safety is very important in our work. We have equipped the new Volvos with all possible safety systems, such as ACC and Lane Keeping Support. If certain safety systems are available, I think we should just have them on our trucks. And of course Volvo has a good reputation in the field of safety. In addition, our relationship with Volvo Truck Center in Aalsmeer dates back to 1974. A band has grown. They know how we want it and are always there for us. ”
