about us

Our core values

#1 People First
We're not just talking about trucks and logistics. Above all, our company is about people and long-term relationships. Together with our colleagues, partners and customers, we strive for common goals.
#2 Let’s do this
We can talk all we want, but eventually something has to happen. And one way or another: we take care of it. In doing so, we always unburden our customers. They can count on that.
#3 We love furniture
We can only be excellent specialists in furniture logistics if we really know what we are doing. Our expertise is based on decades of experience, proven methods and even more; on the love of the product. That makes us unbeatable at what we do.

Mission & vision

At Van de Kamp we believe it is important to completely unburden the customer. The best drivers with a lot of expertise and experience will be used to transport your cargo. Reliability and safety are of paramount importance at Van de Kamp.
Our mission
In the 1950s we joined the rise of the furniture industry in our region, the Land of Maas and Waal. We built our right to exist during that period by transporting manufactured furniture from the region to the many buyers in the furniture industry.

Meanwhile, this industry has largely disappeared from our area. The disappearance of the direct market in the vicinity of our company did make our network larger step by step. By sticking to the things we are good at, we have built up an ever-growing clientele at home and abroad. In fact, we have carried on the expertise of the past into the present, thus expanding and strengthening our position.

As a result of the changes in Europe, such as the elimination of borders, we are now a partner for large and small furniture manufacturers throughout Western Europe. We are specialists in transporting semi-finished and finished products in the furniture, general cargo and groupage sectors by delivering to our customers' final destinations on time, safely, efficiently and without further intermediate storage.

Transporting high-quality furniture without damage is an art in itself. The accumulated experience of the past has been retained, secured and seamlessly transferred to the current generation of drivers, planners and warehouse staff. Our equipment is equipped to transport and handle fragile products of this industry. Double loading floors in the trucks ensure high efficiency and the air-suspended vehicles ensure safe, damage-free transportation. This has also become our trademark!
Our vision
Our future lies in building on the experience of the past 90 years. Securing practical knowledge is becoming increasingly important in the changing world. Craftsmanship will only remain in passing on the care and quality to newer generations. Our current management faces the task of maintaining the standards and values of the transport profession for the furniture industry and general cargo transport, but must also continue to compete with neighboring countries and cheaper Eastern European fellow transporters. This requires further professionalization, even greater efficiency and further training of current and future employees.

The family values, which have been carefully built up, are and will remain the spearhead of the policy to be pursued. The informal atmosphere and short lines in the organization that have led to the specific character of our company must be maintained for current and future generations.

History

Our company has its origins in the forage trade in the 1930s. At that time, the cane industry was an important economic resource in the Land of Maas and Waal. With the disappearance of this industry, the region was forced to develop new skills and the rise of the furniture industry owes its existence to that period. This development provided opportunities for our company to become a stable transportation partner for manufacturers and retailers in the furniture industry.
