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.
