The last challenge that Broshuis took on was charged a machine at Van Wieren Special his regular customer SMT in Emmeloord. SMT, importer of Volvo and Sennebogen earthmoving machines, is close to the Van Wieren site. An L150H from the rental fleet of SMT may be brought directly on location.

The solution
On arrival at SMT, the barrier opens by means of remote control that Van Wieren drivers have in their car as standard. On arrival, the driver must first empty the wheel wells in order to lower the tires of the shovel. This lowers the shovel and allows this transport to be transported on a semi-low-loader instead of a low-loader. After the wheel wells are empty and the ramps are hooked on the back of the trailer, the driver of Van Wieren steps into the shovel to drive it on the trailer. This is where Van Wieren’s service comes into play.
After the machine has been loaded, the driver will start to secure the load. This clearly shows that the design has taken into account securing the various machines.
After a small tour, the team arrived at the destination. A sand quarry in Friesland. At the arrival, the site has already been deserted and after having unloaded the shovel, the operators returned home.
