Walkingfloor bulk transport
Are you looking for walkingfloor bulk transport for large volumes of bulk goods? DTC is based in Friesland and operates daily with walkingfloor trailers throughout the Netherlands and to international destinations. This type of transport is well suited for volumetric, light to medium weight bulk flows such as waste, recyclable materials and biomass.
Because the trailer does not need to tip, unloading is also possible at locations where height restrictions, ground conditions or safety requirements apply. The load is discharged in a controlled manner without additional unloading equipment. This reduces downtime and lowers the risk of damage to buildings or installations.
Since 2009, we have supported waste processors, recyclers, agricultural companies and producers of secondary fuels with reliable walkingfloor bulk transport.

How does a walkingfloor trailer work?
A walkingfloor trailer is equipped with a hydraulic moving floor consisting of individual slats that move in groups. Due to friction, the load remains in place while the floor moves underneath, allowing the bulk material to be discharged gradually towards the rear.
Unloading takes place without tipping, making it suitable for low halls, bunkers or unloading under installations. The unloading speed can be adjusted very precisely.
Which bulk flows do we transport with walkingfloor trailers?
Walkingfloor bulk transport is mainly used for high volume materials with a lower density or materials that are difficult to unload with a tipper. We transport, among others:
- waste and recycling streams such as household waste, RDF, SRF, wood chips and mixed fractions
- green list waste and red list waste in accordance with European regulations
- ADR waste requiring additional attention to safety and documentation
- biomass and agricultural bulk such as wood chips, sawdust, compost, manure, animal feed and beet pulp
- raw materials and semi finished products such as paper and cardboard, plastic streams and tyre shreds
Are you dealing with wetter loads? We deploy Semi-Leak walkingfloor trailers. These can retain up to 650 liters and reduce the risk of leakage during transport.
By slightly compacting the load, you make better use of the loading volume. You can also combine return loads, such as pallets or big bags. Not sure about your bulk material or the right floor type?

Key advantages:
- suitable for bulk transport at locations where tipping is not possible
- high loading capacity for light to medium weight bulk

Frequently asked questions about bulk transport
Yes, with leak proof walkingfloor trailers. Please mention this when submitting your request.
Distance, volume, type of bulk, waiting times and any specific trailer requirements. You will receive a tailored proposal within 24 hours.
A walkingfloor is suitable for large volumes of loose bulk and situations where tipping is not possible, such as in warehouses or under installations.
For palletised cargo loaded via a dock, a tautliner is more practical.
If you work with fixed containers or have extremely limited space on site, a container truck may be a better option.
