Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004030836A1] Method according to which deliveries (3), which have been sorted with the aid of a sorting installation (1), are transferred from end locations (2) into delivery containers (5). Said installation comprises intermediate storage compartments (4) in the end locations (2) for a respective delivery container (5), which receives the deliveries (3) of the respective end location (2). An element confirming the presence of a delivery container (5) is provided for each intermediate storage compartment (4). After the removal of a full delivery container (5) from the respective intermediate storage compartment (4), an empty delivery container (5) is introduced into said compartment (4) and a signal triggered by the confirmation element causes the identification reference (9) of the delivery container (5), which has previously been read by a read device (12), to be assigned to the target address or the target address zone, which has been assigned to this end location (2) by the current sorting plan, and to be stored.
