A sorting system comprises a number of sorting conveyors (1, 2 --- 12) each being capable of selectively discharging items fed onto the conveyor at an input thereto, from any one of a number of destination outlets and a plurality of aggregating conveyors (21, 22 --- 29) corresponding in number to that of the outlets of each sorting conveyor and extending transversely of the sorting conveyors, each aggregating conveyor being capable of receiving items from the respective sorting conveyors at a corresponding outlet in each case and of feeding the received items towards an output.
