Schlichtmann Transporte adds more DAF XG⁺ to its fleet
"Even the drivers who never wanted to drive a DAF are now very pleased to be driving a DAF XG⁺"
With its fleet of more than 75 powerful vehicles, including over 20 DAF XG+ for all common freight goods, Schlichtmann Transport GmbH assures smooth and cost-efficient transport processes. The owner-managed transport company from Wenzendorf – south of Hamburg – has been operating nationally and across Europe since 1965.

"We have included DAF vehicles in our fleet for already an extended period. DAF cabs have always been spacious, but with the XG+, they reach a new pinnacle. It is the largest cab available on the market. We now have 20 of the XG+ models in operation, and all the drivers are happy. Even those who never showed interest in driving a DAF, are now very satisfied to be driving a DAF XG+."
Carsten Schlichtmann, Managing Director and Owner
"The success of our company, which has been in existence for over 55 years, is not based on one individual, but on great, reliable, and motivated employees”, states Carsten Schlichtmann about the company's philosophy. "With our flat hierarchy, we work together as a team to make things happen." In our family business, we use only 'Du' (informal 'you') rather than 'Sie' (formal 'you'), fostering conversations on an equal footing. Only with a great team can we tackle the challenges every day. That is why our customers trust us with their goods; they appreciate our practical approach which results in prompt action."
The expert team of over 100 employees works day-in day-out to implement the promises Schlichtmann makes to its customers about reliability, punctuality and safety. The New Generation DAF trucks are available for transport activities in the areas of building materials, curtainsiders, sea containers, tank containers, tipping containers, moving floors and silos. Additionally, Schlichtmann Transport GmbH is also a certified waste disposal and feed specialist. Furthermore, the company offers storage space totaling 8,500m2 and truck services with vehicle, tank and silo cleaning.
