How Jongstra Transport developed its own container system based on the Double Deck trailer, thereby reducing costs and last-mile delivery times.

Jongstra Transport built an entirely proprietary logistics system around the Burgers Double Deck trailer. No wasted space, no wasted kilometers—from the warehouse to the front door.

Jongstra Transport specializes in furniture logistics and developed its own system entirely in-house: large aluminum bins and roller conveyors that fit perfectly into the Double Deck trailer and are custom-made to connect seamlessly to extended Iveco city vans.

At the warehouse in Emmeloord, furniture is loaded into five containers according to route sequence. This eliminates any reloading points within the supply chain. In the evening, the trailer departs for Belgium. The full containers are directly transferred into the city vans for last-mile delivery. The driver returns with a trailer full of empty containers. The cycle then repeats.

Nighttime transport eliminates traffic jams. Loading in route order means no reloading stops. The Double Deck maximizes capacity on every long-haul route. A scalable model for any retailer or logistics provider with high volumes on fixed routes.

The next step involves expansion in Venlo.
