neutral  philgoddard: No, this doesn't cover "afvoer". It literally means "incoming and outgoing transport", but I'd like to see more context before suggesting a translation.

  -> Or 'supply and removal'. But yeah, I agree, more context would be welcome.
neutral  writeaway: more context definitely needed but if one can't wait and Asker has no time to bother providing any, then this will have to do

of course it might also mean 'supply and forwarding', 'flower transport logistics' or 'supply and delivery', but you need context!
