Port drayage involves collecting and delivering containers from terminals (ECT, Eurogate, APM). The work is shift-based, physically demanding, and requires knowledge of terminal layouts and booking systems. Pay is among the highest in Dutch trucking.
Not for all positions, but ADR certification significantly increases your options and pay. The Europoort and Botlek petrochemical complexes require ADR for hazardous cargo transport.
Rotterdam is more affordable than Amsterdam, with good public transit and housing options. Many drivers live in nearby Dordrecht, Schiedam, or Barendrecht.
