The Nordics’ leading trailer rental company.

We are a family-owned company based on the values of responsibility and common sense. It has been that way since 1975 when Per Nelson Ørnstrand (PNO) founded the company. Since then, the next generation of the Ørnstrand family has now taken over, and today, Jacob Lee Ørnstrand is in charge.

PNO believes in long-term customer relationships based on trust, and the importance of taking responsibility as a company – not only in relation to our customers but also towards the environment and our employees.

Our purpose is to lead the transition to sustainable freight, and we strongly believe that PNO can be a key driver of change in the logistics industry.

We are investing in innovation and digitalization. PNO Ventures is our in-house, innovation hub dedicated to developing new ways to add value to customers, and how we continue to develop in an ever-changing market.

Based out of our head office in Copenhagen, and with branches in Helsinki, Oslo, Hamburg, Helsingborg in Sweden, Horsens in Denmark, Venlo in the Netherlands and Poland we have come to have the Nordics’ largest range of short and long-term trailer rentals.

PNO is a B Corp.
