English term or phrase: inanimate cargo
Inanimate cargo is the opposite of public transport really. Does anyone have a good expression for this?

Explanation:
in deze context lijkt me dit een eenvoudiger benadering. (Waarbij animate cargo dan iets al veevervoer wordt)

agree  Ron Willems: Het is het tegenovergestelde van "Levende have", dus inderdaad goederenvervoer van niet-levende lading. Of je het ook zo expliciet moet benoemen, lijkt me eerder van de context af te hangen. 1 serieuze Google is niet veel...
