Freshly picked up: Current Actros Generation MP5 L

As part of the further modernization of our fleet, we have taken delivery of an Actros 2545 MP5 L at the Wörth plant. This truck will now improve the efficiency and safety of our fleet in the long term. Here, too, we are looking forward to the positive feedback after the first weeks of operation!

Food donation for the animal shelter Ransbach-Baumbach

A loud meow could be heard from the cat house when this delicious donation arrived at the Ransbach-Baumbach animal shelter: "Many thanks to Mr. Körting from Westerwald Logistik in Moschheim. Our residents as well as the team, were very happy about the support. Thank you that so many people think about the animals."

Now also in XXL

New in our container pool: Two XXL smooth wall containers for particularly demanding cargo requirements! Extra high and extra volume. These containers push the maximum possible loading capacity as well as the internal loading height of our vehicles to the limit in order to meet the increasing demands of our customers. We are happy to test the limits of our capabilities to inspire our customers!

Prevention the third, this time occupational health and safety!

After the first aider and fire protection aider training, another in-house training on occupational health and safety took place on 08.07.2023, again with speaker Thomas Wolf. Helpful tips on topics such as occupational health care, classification and control of workload and stress, as well as being healthy - staying fit, found an attentive audience among the staff of WWL Westerwaldlogistik. With the now completed training series with a focus on safety and prevention at the workplace and on the road, we have given our employees valuable knowledge with which they can organise their everyday working life as well as their leisure time in a safe and healthy way. We would like to thank Thomas Wolf once again for his efforts and the participants for their interest!

Mobile warehouse for kindergarten modernization

We recently began supporting the Wölferlingen kindergarten with a furniture container for the temporary storage of furniture that had to be moved out to modernize the rooms. We are pleased to be able to contribute to the success of the conversion and extension.

Full commitment to fire protection!

On 17.06.2023, 19 employees of WWL Westerwaldlogistik were able to learn impressively about the dangers of fires in theory and practice. Following the theoretical knowledge, demonstrations and exercises were used to put what had been learned directly into practice. Many thanks to Thomas Schwarz for the impressive and instructive moments and to all participants, who are now trained fire protection assistants who can fight fires in an emergency in a prudent, targeted and effective manner.

New thermal store in Krefeld

On behalf of the Orben company, we delivered two trailers, each with a 10 m³/h water treatment plant, together with equipment and consumables, to Krefeld for the initial filling of a newly constructed heat storage tank with ultrapure water. Heat revolution - we are already part of it! 😎

Fleet update

Two Mercedes Atego furniture boxes in WWL outfit are the latest additions to the fleet. Positive driver and customer feedbacks as well as initial experience with efficiency already make us very optimistic about the future with the vehicles. We wish you a safe journey!

Round trip to the inclusion labor market

MdB Dr. Tanja Machalet, Member of the German Parliament and member of the Committee for Labor and Social Affairs, visited with a delegation on 06/03/2023 the WWL Westerwaldlogistik^® GmbH. The Senior Citizens' and Disabled People's Council of Südlicher Westerwald (SBR-SÜW) had invited to this event. "Trip participants" were a dozen selected experts on disability and the labor market. Together they experienced a deep insight into practice at 5 stations in the Westerwald.

Change in the fleet

We say goodbye to four deserving Sprinters to the second use, together they have done 2,038,085 km without failure or major problems! Thank you and respect for the impressive performance of drivers and vehicles!

Addition to the fleet

Newly added are two more Renault Master with furniture box body, again in Mecklenburg design, so that now a total of three Renault Master strengthen our fleet.

Safety even in winter

From now on, heavy snowfalls can no longer endanger our safety and that of other road users by ice and snow boards falling from box bodies. On the premises of the Körting Group, our professional drivers can use an ice clearing scaffold to safely remove any snow that may have fallen overnight from the vehicle roofs before driving off.

Participation in the "Green Wave" contest

The WWL Westerwaldlogistik GmbH has participated in the contest "Green Wave" of the Economic Development Corporation Westerwaldkreis mbH. The aim of the event is to make visible good examples of sustainability that invite imitation. Companies, administrations, banks as well as institutions from the fields of education, research, health and social affairs with headquarters or branch offices in the Westerwald district were awarded.

Emergency operation for Orben water treatment

On behalf of the company Orben Wasseraufbereitung GmbH & CO. KG, WWL Westerwaldlogistik GmbH supplied equipment and consumables for a mobile water treatment plant with a capacity of 120m³ of ultrapure water per hour to secure the continued operation of an electricity power plant in Mannheim as part of a time-critical emergency operation. Ultrapure water is required in large quantities for the trouble-free operation of steam turbines in power plants. Being in the right place at the right time for customers is our maxim.

News from the fleet

Recently put into service: Renault Master with 20m³ lightweight furniture case, efficient, shapely and with a special outfit. In cooperation with our long-standing insurance partner Ingo Heinz, we implemented a sympathetic advertising concept on the rear of the vehicle, which now draws attention to the Mecklenburg Insurence Group family provision concepts on the streets of our service area. Many thanks also to Siebdruck Hastrich for the professional vehicle lettering in best quality!

Safety at work and on the road

In order to ensure safety and emergency management at work and on the road at all times, 12 employees and the management completed a training course for first aiders under the leadership of Maik Sauerwein (NCCR StEx) on May 21, 2022. We would like to thank our employees for their great performance and commitment during the training as well as Maik Sauerwein for the exciting and entertaining presentation of life-saving measures. We've learned a lot and hope we'll never have to apply our knowledge, but if, we'll do it! Due the over-mandatory number of company first aiders, we feel well equipped for emergencies in any case.

Sustainability in the fleet

Sustainability is very important to us in the vehicle fleet. It starts with acquiring high-quality vehicles and deploying them with continuously, professional maintance — as far as it is economically justifiable. The greatest CO2 emissions occur during the production of a vehicle. It is therefore consequent to use valuable resources over a long period of time. We would especially like to thank our mechanic Jörg for the professional support of the 5ton Sprinter over 500,000 trouble-free kilometers! Due to its good substance, the Sprinter will remain in the fleet. We will report future mileage "milestones" here.

Complex solutions for demanding customers

E.g. for Reber Logistik out of Germersheim.

Working resources: Ground-level loading of BDF swap bodies from WWL Westerwaldlogistik, Kamag Wiesel swap body transfer unit and a combi lift from Reber Logistik.

New Trunk swaps

Diesel surcharge

Due current fuel prices, we have to add a temporary diesel surcharge of 4.5% to our regular freight prices. We ask for your understanding and monitor developments closely to revise the surcharge as soon as possible. Thank you in advance!

The WWL Westerwaldlogistik^® GmbH has won the 3. place at the regional award for exemplary employment of severely disabled people. Social Affairs Minister Alexander Schweitzer and LSJV Vice Michael Scharping honored the winners at a ceremony.
