A method of loading live poultry is described. Firstly, provide a transport vehicle having a plurality of empty poultry crates, a trailer having a two tiered trailer mounted conveyor, and a plurality of interconnectable two tiered conveyor sections. The trailer mounted conveyor and the conveyor sections both have a top tier and a bottom tier. Secondly, deploy the trailer mounted conveyor so that a first end extends into the freight compartment of the transport vehicle, and deploy the two tiered conveyor sections so that they extend from a second end of the trailer mounted conveyor into an enclosure containing live poultry. Thirdly, send poultry crates continuously along the trailer mounted conveyor and the conveyor sections from the freight compartment of the transport vehicle to the enclosure on one of the top tier and bottom tier. Fourthly, load the live poultry into the poultry crates at the enclosure and send the poultry crates containing live poultry continuously along the conveyor sections from the enclosure to the freight compartment of the transport vehicle on the other of the top tier and bottom tier.
