Increase the feel-good factor in the truck
and end the search for truck drivers

Goodbye driver shortage - welcome comfort!

The search for truck drivers is often chal­len­ging. The reason: tough working condi­ti­ons, lack of reco­gni­tion from the public and regu­lar weekend shifts have led to a serious shortage and high staff fluc­tua­tion.

Many drivers complain about

  • the poor work-life balance, because their work­place also serves as their home
  • being constantly on the road with little comfort in the trucks
  • long waiting times between trans­ports orders
  • the poor condi­tion of many sani­tary faci­li­ties at motor­way rest areas

If you want to over­come the shortage of profes­sio­nal drivers and easily find new truck drivers for your company, our LIVING — Driver Single Cab equip­ment offers the opti­mal solu­tion for you. The comfor­ta­bly furnis­hed cabin with its self-suffi­ci­ent hygiene faci­li­ties allows drivers to spend their stan­ding times and breaks in a comfor­ta­ble way, impro­ving your image as an employer.

Do you want to find and retain truck drivers?

Then rely on LIVING!

If you want to attract good drivers today, you have to offer more than just a powerful truck. With LIVING you create a real home to go — and actively show appre­cia­tion for what your drivers do every day.

Our concept is based on the life­style of modern truckers:
A well-desi­gned cab with lounge corner, ambi­ent light­ing, folding table and plenty of storage space meets a fully equip­ped cooking and dining area with micro­wave, fridge and coffee machine. There is also a wash­ba­sin with fresh water tank and high-quality camper-style mate­ri­als — indi­vi­du­ally confi­gura­ble down to the wood decor.

The result: less fluc­tua­tion, higher satis­fac­tion and real compe­ti­tive advan­ta­ges when looking for drivers.

Voices from the driver community

What professional drivers really want!

Hardly any other vehicle concept has been discus­sed as inten­sely by profes­sio­nal drivers on social media as our Living. Hundreds of thou­sands of views and hundreds of comm­ents make it clear: The Living addres­ses exactly the chal­lenges that profes­sio­nal drivers face on the road every day.

Greater Appreciation for Professional Drivers
Many drivers see the Living as a clear sign that their daily work is taken seriously. Comfort and func­tion­a­lity are viewed not as luxu­ries, but as modern working condi­ti­ons.
A New Standard for Everyday Driving
Many profes­sio­nal drivers see the Living as much more than just a vehicle conver­sion. The comm­ents show that the concept is viewed as a contem­po­rary response to the demands of modern long-haul trucking—well-thought-out, prac­ti­cal, and consis­t­ently driver-orien­ted.
A Benefit for Female Drivers
Many female drivers asso­ciate the Living with grea­ter safety and auto­nomy in their daily work. Espe­ci­ally on long trips and at unfa­mi­liar rest stops, this well-thought-out design provi­des a sense of reassu­rance and grea­ter inde­pen­dence.

Hire the right truck and find lorry drivers as if by magic

Play it safe: Test the LIVING before you buy!

You also have the option of initi­ally test­ing the bene­fits of our LIVING Driver Single Cab by hiring one of our trucks with this equip­ment. This way, you can take your time to convince yours­elf of the bene­fits and quality of the conver­sion.

Questions? We have the answers!

Everything you need to know about the LIVING

  • What are the costs for the conversion?

    Thanks to our efficient series production, the conversion usually costs around €13,500*. Under certain conditions, funding under the “Environmental Protection and Safety” program (formerly De Minimis) can significantly reduce the investment. With funding of up to 80%, the out-of-pocket cost would be approximately €2,700*.

    *plus value added tax

  • How does the LIVING Driver Single Cab affect the resale value?

    Significantly. Vehicles with LIVING equipment are in high demand on the used market. The comfort, appearance and high-quality workmanship ensure more demand and better prices - even years later.

  • What do companies that already rely on LIVING say?

    Waldbach Fulfillment Logistik now has six LIVING trucks in use - both for long-distance and local transport. Managing Director Björn Waldbach puts it in a nutshell: "We want our drivers to feel comfortable with us - and the cab is their workplace. The focus is on people."

  • What do the drivers say about the equipment?

    The reactions are clear:

    • More peace and quiet.
    • More privacy.
    • More comfort.
    • Less stress.

    The lounge corner, the self-contained washbasin, microwave, fridge and coffee machine ensure that drivers can really relax - without the stress of rest stops.

  • What is the economic impact of the conversion?

    The full conversion costs are around €12,500 plus VAT - that equates to around €210 per month over five years. This is a small amount compared to the actual costs of driver turnover.

    Every lost driver quickly costs companies several thousand euros: through recruiting, training, idle time and declining productivity. A Living cab creates loyalty, ensures satisfaction and measurably reduces precisely these turnover costs.

    The conversion is therefore not only a gain in comfort, but also a clear economic advantage.

  • How much fresh water can be stored and how is the wastewater disposed of?

    This varies depending on the brand of the tractor-trailer, ranging from approximately 20 to 50 liters. The wastewater is disposed directly to the outside.

Just one of many satisfied customers

Waldbach drives LIVING!

Wald­bach Fulfill­ment Logis­tik is one of those compa­nies that don’t just mention driver comfort — they live it. With the decis­ion to buy six trucks with LIVING equip­ment from us, Wald­bach has set a clear signal.

“Our focus is on people,” empha­si­zes Mana­ging Direc­tor Björn Wald­bach. “We want our drivers to feel comfor­ta­ble with us and spend their breaks and waiting times in opti­mal condi­ti­ons.”

The equip­ment of the LIVING vehi­cles was deve­lo­ped precis­ely to meet this requi­re­ment: A well thought-out seating area, an inte­gra­ted wash­ba­sin with tap, a func­tional cooking area — comple­men­ted by a micro­wave, coffee machine, fridge and flat-screen TV. A fresh water tank is part of the stan­dard equip­ment, as are ergo­no­mic storage spaces and intel­li­gent room solu­ti­ons.

For Björn Wald­bach, one thing is clear: “A truck is not just a means of trans­por­ta­tion, but also a work­place and a place of retreat. Inves­t­ing in comfort is an invest­ment in driver satis­fac­tion, moti­va­tion and long-term loyalty.” The feed­back from the drivers speaks for itself — and confirms the added value of the LIVING equip­ment in ever­y­day life.
