Abstract

Rows of docking stations for storing containers or carts are provided along at least one side of the van cargo storage area, and aisles are provided for loading and unloading containers or carts individually or in groups from the rear of the van. Preferably, the docking station is automated. Interference with the storage and removal of containers or carts by the wheel wells of the van or other vehicle is eliminated. A motorized mechanism captures the container or cart and lifts the container or cart above the level of the wheel well for storage in the docking station, thereby maximizing the available storage area in addition to the available storage area on the floor of the cargo area. Individual containers or carts can remain in the docking station until needed.
