When someone has a birthday, you want to give a nice gift! A puzzle for grandma, a Nintendo Switch for your nephew, a new bathrobe for your sister, but what do you give that one truck driver in the family? You can always ask of course, but the best thing is when it is a surprise! From accessories for the truck to suitable presents, in this article we have made a list of nice gifts for truck drivers. Which gift will you choose?
1. A nice scent
A gift that is always a hit is a perfume… A perfume for in the truck, that is! The most popular brand among truck drivers is Grace Mate Poppy, where the perfume pots in particular are a real hit. To give this gift an extra festive twist, you can even buy a hat for it: how nice is that!? Not sure which scent is nice? This is of course very personal, but perhaps the article we wrote earlier, the nicest scents for in the truck, will help you make a choice. This gift for truck drivers is always good!
2. A cleaning set
Okay, not everyone is happy when they get cleaning supplies during the holidays. But someone who cares a lot about the appearance of their truck will be happy with it! For many truck drivers, their truck is their pride and joy, their baby: and they want to keep it clean! For example, you can give the exterior basic package from Truckssupply as a gift. We also have a complete package for the interior. Do you want to go for a set that contains products for both the interior and the exterior? Then go for the complete package!
Are you on a slightly smaller budget? Then go for microfiber cloths, because they always come in handy! Our Microfiber cloths are of professional quality, have a long lifespan and are indispensable for every truck driver.
3. Trucker T-shirt
How nice is it when you, as a proud truck driver, can show everyone what your profession is: Even when you are not on the road! We have a number of super cool shirts in our webshop, such as the King of the Road shirt and the We Truckinn the World T-shirt. The shirts are available in sizes S, M, L, XL and XXL and are made of a high-quality fabric that is breathable and soft. View all T-shirts in our range here. In addition to T-shirts, you could also go for a hat or other merchandise! This way, the recipient of the gift can share his or her pride with everyone!
4. Thermos or insulated mug
Another great gift for truckers is a nice thermos or insulated mug. Just make sure it’s leak-proof (or you should throw in an interior cleaning kit ;) ). No one wants a leaky thermos in their cab! A good thermos or insulated mug will keep your beverages at the right temperature for hours, whether it’s hot coffee during early morning commutes or refreshing iced tea on a hot afternoon. Not sure if your recipient already has a thermos? We believe you can never have too many thermoses: one for coffee, one for tea, one for soda, and maybe even one for soup!
5. On-the-go package
A package of handy and tasty items for on the road is perhaps one of the best gifts to give to a truck driver during the holidays or for a birthday. Because you make a package of all kinds of items, there is always something that the recipient is very happy with.
This gift is also very nice to give if the trucker might not be home for the holidays, to still give a festive atmosphere on the road. For example, you can make a well-filled basket with tasty snacks for on the road (nuts, cookies, dried sausage), a nice beer (for after a day of work), warm socks, scent spray, nice shower gel, nice magazines and a gift card for his or her favorite (road) restaurant.
The best gift for a truck driver
Hopefully this list will help you choose a gift for a truck driver. Of course, tastes can differ and it is easiest to first ask if the truck driver has any wishes. It is possible that the person already has thermoses for coffee, tea, soup, soft drinks and water. Whatever gift you choose, the most important thing is that you have a nice time together full of fun! (In advance) very happy holidays!
