Haegens and Nooteboom: a trusted combination for many years

Decades of trust in Nooteboom

Haegens is a family-owned company founded in 1982 by the parents of the current owner. Today, the third generation is ready to carry the business forward. What started with a single crane has grown into a versatile company with five business activities: crane rental, special transport, industrial relocations, steel road plate rental and a recently completed transshipment hall.

For heavier transport

The Haegens fleet includes a variety of Nooteboom trailers, ranging from flatbed trailers and semi low-loaders to EURO low-loaders and curtain-sided trailers. For the transport of heavy equipment, Haegens uses, among others, a 2+4 combination.

This trailer is used to transport the company’s own crawler cranes and crawler lifting cranes, as well as for third-party transport, including excavators, units and other heavy or high loads. According to Haegens, the 2+4 combination is particularly well suited to the heavier equipment transported on a daily basis.

Why Nooteboom?

The partnership with Nooteboom goes back many years. The first Nooteboom trailer purchased by Haegens was a semi low-loader, which also served as a ballast trailer for one of the company’s larger cranes at the time. Since then, the company has largely opted for Nooteboom.

According to Haegens, working with a single brand creates uniformity within the company. This makes it easier for drivers to switch between vehicles and also offers advantages for the workshop. In addition, the user-friendliness of the trailers is considered an important benefit.

“The controls are pretty much the same across the board. Nothing overly complicated or with loads of levers,” says Nick, one of the drivers. When Haegens thinks of Nooteboom, the qualities that stand out most are user-friendliness, reliability, quality and service. According to the family business, these qualities have played an important role in choosing Nooteboom for many years.

“For us, it has always been about reliability. The quality, the service and the user-friendliness.”
