Hinaus Haapanen solves heavy-vehicle tire issues in Finland with its new mobile tire service vehicle

Hinaus Haapanen has over 50 years of experience towing heavy vehicles and assisting in unexpected roadside situations in Uusimaa, Finland. The company has been part of the Road Mobility Services Group since 2024, among the first in Finland. The latest addition, the tire service vehicle, significantly reduces downtime caused by tire failures and brings to the roadside a service that traditionally requires a workshop visit.

The mobile tire service is an important add-on for the company in Finland. In the event of a tire failure, a heavy vehicle’s tire or complete wheel assembly can be replaced smoothly at the roadside, allowing the journey to continue quickly. The company can also store customers’ tires or wheels to be prepared for emergencies. Hinaus Haapanen’s service package has been developed under the guidance of RengasCenter professionals. The product portfolio is aligned with the owner-operated tire chain, enabling a wide and versatile selection of tires and rims for heavy-duty roadside service in Finland.

“We always strive to find the best solution for each customer and ensure that the journey and work tasks can continue as soon as possible. Our motto is Hinaus Haapanen keeps the wheels turning, and our tire service vehicle plays an important role in this,” says Jarmo Haapanen, CEO of Hinaus Haapanen Oy.

The company’s versatile fleet and experienced personnel make it possible to solve even the most demanding problems at the roadside. The company also has two TMA vehicles (Truck Mounted Attenuator), i.e., protective vehicles, which clearly mark an accident site for other traffic and protect the affected vehicle and road workers from potential collisions. TMA vehicles are deployed without delay, as the company always prioritizes safety.

Every roadside assistance and towing assignment is different and cannot be predicted. That is why it is important that Hinaus Haapanen has broad readiness to act and help drivers and vehicles continue their journey and mission. Returning customers testify to high service quality and strong results: over 90 percent of the company’s customers are regulars.

“Road Mobility Services’ goal is to help heavy-transport operators in Finland continue their journeys and carry out their tasks as quickly as possible when unexpected damage occurs. Hinaus Haapanen’s tire service vehicle supports our strategy and contributes to this goal in Finland’s logistically important Uusimaa region,” says Catarina Göthberg, CEO of the Road Mobility Services Group.
