An army runs on it's stomach and trucks run on gas and artillery needs shells, and doctors need medical supplies. My collection includes supplies of all different types. I got some resin supplies from Fidelis Models and then added additional boxes, crates, bags, and barrels to them.
Take a bit of sheet styrene and cut it to the size of a truck bed. Fit the styrene to several different truck types and make sure it fits into the narrowest trucks. Then glue supplies to these sheets of styrene so that your cargoes are "palletized."
The HaT WWII Germans are seen here with a captured American supply base. These supplies can be unloaded from the trucks and stacked up to make very nice looking supply dumps. This Opel Blitz cargo truck from Roco holds a pallet of cargo that also fits a Roco 2 1/2 ton cargo truck.

Do you know where to get cheap plastic stowage? I remember somebody from Thailand selling stuff also made from resin in EBay, but like to have this in plastic.
Cheers
Fidelis Models sells resin cargo designed to fit into Roco vehicles, very cheap, durable and works like plastic. Model RR shops are good places to look for other bits of crates and boxes and barrels. Merten, Preiser, Faller all sell various small cargo items too.
