Volume transport

Years of experience with volume goods

Historically, our strength lies in the sustainable transport of volume goods. 

Volume goods, also called voluminous goods, are goods with a high volume versus their specific weight or products with large dimensions that cannot be stacked. As a result, not the weight but the available floor space determines the load factor. 

This is why we use equipment with extra height and/or length and material that can be extended and/or widened. With this flexible equipment, we can always offer the best possible sustainable transport solution.

EFFICIENT & SUSTAINABLE

The best-fitting transport solution

Your product gets the best-fitting transport solution. That's what Van der Wal goes for. 

We possess the knowledge and expertise to transport your products efficiently and sustainably, whether they are insulation materials, solar panels, other building and construction materials, second-hand clothing, pallets, or industrial packaging materials such as IBCs and drums.

Because we can and believe it's necessary to drive the world to a friendlier place.

NO SURPRISES ALONG THE WAY

Independent drivers

Your goods are in our safe hands with our experienced drivers. They have been doing this work for years and transport a wide range of bulk goods.

Every day, they drive large combinations such as LHVs and volume combis. They work with swap bodies; where required, they load and unload with our whisper-quiet electric truck-mounted forklifts or craylers.

This way, you avoid surprises, and your customers receive their products safely and on time.

EXPERTISE FOR SMART TRANSPORT

Optimal configuration

To transport your product cost-effectively and sustainably, we help you find the optimal configuration.

Think of trailers with a removable second floor for double-loading non-stackable cargo, and trailers with raised or sliding roofs for optimal utilisation of the loading volume when your cargo is loaded from the side or top.

The right composition makes your transport more sustainable and cheaper.

High quality, low prices & minimal impact

Do you want lower transport costs and a lower carbon footprint per product? Without compromising the quality of transport?

With our knowledge and equipment, we continually optimise for our customers. For example, we use long heavy vehicles (LHVs), such as B-doubles, for their extra length, and super-mega trailers for additional height. With an LHV, we transport 38% more volume compared to a volume combi, and the transport volume increases even 52% compared to a standard mega trailer.

Our fleet

In addition to LHVs and SECs, we utilise other equipment for volume transport, including mega trailerssuper megasvolume combis, and LCVs.

Together, we achieve more

Groenleven is one of the largest solar panel suppliers in the Netherlands. At an early stage, they involved Van der Wal in making transport to large-scale solar energy projects as sustainable as possible.

Working together in an intensive collaboration brings excellent results. For example, we drive with B-doubles instead of trailers (like the previous carrier). This enables the transportation of the same number of panels in fewer trips. This is a more efficient and sustainable approach. Thus, we have achieved a more sustainable (- 35% CO2, NOx, and ppm) transport with lower costs for Groenleven.

TOGETHER, WE MAKE TRANSPORT MORE SUSTAINABLE

For DYKA, one of the largest suppliers of plastic pipe systems, we have been providing transport and storage for many years. 

Good cooperation resulted in an annual CO2 saving of 11,762 kilos and lower transport costs for DYKA. This was a real win-win situation, for which we planted a symbolic tree.

In this post, you can read how this saving was realized.
