For over 30 years, Alpha Express has been supporting Brussels-based companies with reliable, flexible, and 24/7 available B2B transport solutions.
Several years ago, we integrated cargo bikes into our fleet. This well-thought-out choice is not a passing trend — it’s a sustainable and deliberate logistics strategy, designed to optimize urban deliveries and provide our clients with a faster, greener, and more efficient experience.
In Brussels, last-mile delivery has become a real challenge. Traffic congestion, low-emission zones (LEZ), pedestrian areas, and traffic restrictions make transport operations increasingly complex.
According to mobility and cycle logistics experts Léa Raymakers and Melina Keroulis from the Groupe One, 30% of urban freight deliveries could be made by bike.
That’s exactly where we make the difference. Our cargo bikes enable:
Already using our Jet, Jet+ or Shuttle delivery options?
Good news — these services are also available by cargo bike, to fit all your time constraints!
Did you know that a bike delivery emits 40 times less CO₂ than a diesel van delivery, according to data highlighted by the Belgian Cycle Logistics Federation in their Yearly Cycle Logistics Barometer?
The cargo bike reflects our commitment to sustainable logistics.
Today, businesses aim to reduce their carbon footprint while maintaining performance. By entrusting their deliveries to Alpha Express, they take part in this responsible transition.
Brussels is actively supporting this evolution: expanding bike lanes, promoting alternatives to motorized transport, and adapting delivery zones.
Cargo bikes fit perfectly into this dynamic, adding real value for our clients, who can in turn highlight their own environmental commitment to their partners and customers.
The last mile can account for up to 30% of delivery costs. With cargo bikes, we reduce these expenses by cutting down on:
These savings directly benefit our clients. For regular or scheduled shipments — such as non-urgent deliveries — cargo bike delivery combines performance with cost efficiency.
The cargo bike complements our fleet, it does not replace it. For each need, we choose the most suitable solution:
This diversity ensures tailored logistics, whether it's a simple urgent document, a valuable package, or a more complex shipment like a pallet sale.
At Alpha Express, cargo bike delivery is not an experiment — it’s a proven strategy. For several years, it has been an integral part of our services, reflecting our commitment to providing ecological, economical, and efficient logistics in Brussels.
The integration of cargo bikes is part of our long-term vision to:
Moreover, delivery is not just about transport — it plays a key role in customer relationships and fosters closer connections with recipients. This choice reflects our core values: openness, accessibility, kindness, and professionalism.
By combining cargo bikes and utility vehicles, we offer a complete logistics solution.
