Context & challenge

Belgium is a strategic partner in European logistics.

  • Antwerp serves as a port city and international distribution point for ocean freight.
  • Brussels is the political and economic heart, with strong retail and pharma sectors.
  • Ghent is an industrial and chemical hotspot with excellent connections to the Benelux and France.

Daily transport to these regions requires fixed corridors, flexible capacity and sector-oriented expertise, exactly where Neele-Vat excels.

How is daily road transport to Brussels, Antwerp and Ghent?

Neele-Vat 's logistics process is optimized for speed, reliability and transparency.

  1. Booking and order registration

Customers report their shipment via the Neele-Vat customer portal or directly to transport planning. Based on destination, volume and type of goods (FTL, LTL or groupage), the most efficient route is selected.

  1. Collection from the customer

Goods are picked up in the Netherlands or Belgium - often the same day. Neele-Vat has an intricate network, which means that pickups can be scheduled quickly.

  1. Cross-docking and consolidation

In the hubs of Rotterdam, Venlo and Moerdijk, shipments are bundled by region. This increases the load factor and reduces the waiting time at departure.

  1. Daily departure corridors

Trucks depart daily from the Netherlands to:

  • Antwerp - transit time: 6-10 hours, several trips per day.
  • Brussels - transit time: 8-12 hours, including deliveries within city region.
  • Ghent - transit time: 10-14 hours, via direct corridor past Moerdijk.
  1. Delivery and POD

Delivery takes place within 24 hours, depending on service level and window. Through eCMR, the customer immediately receives a digital Proof of Delivery (POD).

  1. Monitoring and reporting

All transports are tracked in real time via GPS. Customers have full insight into location, ETA and CO₂ emissions per shipment via the Neele-Vat customer portal.
