About us
The Mammoth – Power, strength and endurance: That’s exactly what Mammoet Ferry Transport has stood for since its foundation in 1983.
Formed in 1983 as a subsidiary company of Royal Dutch Nedlloyd Mammoet Ferry Transport provided support to the world renowned Mammoet Heavy Lift organization based in Rotterdam in The Netherlands. Mammoet Ferry Transport developed extensive business in its own right and whilst continuing to work closely with the Heavy Lift division, it forged relationships with businesses operating in other sectors and began to operate autonomously as a provider of part and full load trailer services across Europe. By 2000 Mammoet Ferry Transport was operating independently of the wider Mammoet Group and was sold as a management buyout with two of its senior Dutch Management Team (Krijn Torreman & Tom van der Enden) taking ownership. Shortly afterwards, Krijn Torreman became sole owner of the company. By 2018 the company had expanded its business significantly…and successfully. Its trailer fleet comprised over five hundred trailers, it’s network of office and warehouse facilities extended across Holland, Belgium, Germany, Austria, England and Scotland. In 2019 Mammoet Ferry was sold to one of its largest continental clients Neele-Vat and whilst continuing to trade autonomously, enjoys the support and opportunities that this dynamic and expanding Group provides.
Our distinctive fleet of red trailers, proudly carrying the Mammoet M Logo are maintained to the highest technical specification by our own team of engineers.
Covering many thousands of kilometers a year we make significant investment in safety, security and reliability.
All of our trailers are:
- Under five years old and included in a rolling replacement programme.
- Fitted with 24/7 Track & Trace GPS systems
- Highly robust with thermo-galvanised chassis and extensive safety features.

Information is key in modern business and speed of communication is becoming increasingly important.
Mammoet Ferry Transport uses a bespoke software programme “QFreight” at the core of its IT operating system. QFreight consolidates data from the customer booking, adds trailer equipment data, routing, shipping and scheduling information to form a consignment package which is visible to all colleagues as the consignment moves through transit. A series of process checks ensure that the consignment proceeds as planned.
Track & Trace
Mammoet Ferry Transport have made significant investment in ensuring that their trailer fleet is fitted with modern anti-tamper GPS Tracker devices that can identify the exact location of each trailer in real time. As well as being a potent deterrent to thieves the system provides our Planning Team with an overview of position and scheduling at all times.
