Solo transport from 7.5 t to 26 t GVWR

A solo truck operates without a trailer. This makes it more maneuverable than a full semi-trailer, better suited to city centers, narrow loading zones, and delivery points with restricted access. At the same time, a solo truck carries substantially more cargo than a light commercial vehicle – making it the right solution when gross vehicle weight requirements exceed the 3.5 t class but the route or destination makes a large trailer impractical.

MAKO TSL provides dedicated transport solutions for solo truck operations across all three Benelux countries. Our solo fleet covers the full 7.5 t to 26 t GVWR range, giving clients the flexibility to match vehicle capacity to cargo weight and route requirements. Solo trucks in this range can carry palletized goods, industrial equipment, and cargo types that require more volume or load capacity than a Sprinter can provide – without committing to a full trailer configuration.

The high maneuverability of the solo truck is a key operational advantage in the Benelux region. The Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg include major urban logistics environments – Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Brussels, Antwerp, Luxembourg City – where city center delivery restrictions, weight limits, and access conditions often make large vehicles unsuitable. MAKO’s solo trucks are designed for exactly these conditions. Experienced drivers who know the Benelux road network handle deliveries that require precision, not just power.

As a transportation company with 15 years in Benelux logistics, MAKO TSL selects the right solo truck configuration for each route and matches it with a driver qualified for the cargo type, the delivery conditions, and – where required – ADR regulations.

ADR compliant solo trucks – hazardous materials in Benelux

Solo transport in the 7.5 t to 26 t GVWR range is available in ADR compliant configuration for the carriage of hazardous materials. MAKO TSL operates ADR certified solo trucks with trained vehicle crews, compliant equipment, and full documentation support for dangerous goods transport across the Benelux region.

For clients that move hazardous materials in quantities that exceed the light commercial vehicle class, a solo truck ADR compliant configuration provides the right combination of capacity and compliance. Our dedicated transport solutions for ADR solo operations cover all relevant dangerous goods categories, with consignment documentation, packaging verification, and crew certification managed as part of the service.

As a transportation company with a dedicated ADR fleet across Benelux, MAKO TSL ensures that hazardous materials are transported safely, legally, and on time – whether the cargo is classified industrial goods, chemicals, or other materials requiring ADR compliance procedures. Our experienced drivers are trained in the carriage requirements applicable to each ADR class and operate under the same 98.5% on-time delivery standard as the rest of our fleet.

Solo trucks with lift gates – more independence at delivery points

MAKO TSL also offers solo truck equipped with lift gates for deliveries where access to a loading dock or ramp is limited. A lift gate allows cargo to be lowered from the vehicle bed to ground level, making loading and unloading safer, faster, and less dependent on infrastructure at the delivery point. This configuration is especially useful for heavier palletized goods, industrial components, or deliveries to locations where forklifts, ramps, or fixed unloading equipment are not available.

For companies operating across the Benelux region, solo trucks with lift gates provide a practical balance between capacity and flexibility. They carry more than light commercial vehicles while remaining easier to maneuver than full semi-trailer combinations. Alongside solo transport from 7.5 t to 26 t GVWR, MAKO TSL also offers light transport up to 3.5 t GVWR, including Sprinter configurations, and heavy transport with standard and mega 13.6 m trailers. This allows our team to select the right vehicle for the cargo, route, and unloading conditions, instead of forcing every shipment into one transport model.
