At the end of the harvest season there are generally surplus slaves on the estate, who were bought in during spring to deal with the planting, tending to the crops, and harvesting..... with the Government allowances for writing off capital expenditure, in makes more financial sense on large agricultural enterprises to buy slaves to cope with the anticipated workload, rather than to use rental agencies to supply the necessary labour.
At the end of season, though, many of these slaves are surplus to requirements, and the estate will not want the expense of having to feed the slaves throughout the winter; and lacking heavy work to do, slaves have time to brood, think about their situation, and generally become troublesome. Consequently surplus slaves are shipped off to the slave dealer for sale, and, interestingly, the estate often is able to sell them for more than their purchase price - the months of hard manual labour have generally toned and conditioned the slaves' bodies, making them a more attractive purchase.
Here we see one of the estate's surplus waiting for the shipper's truck to arrive. It's a further cost saving: the caged slave is considered to be perfectly secure and so can be sent by a normal carrier; if it were simply chained, a special slave transporter would be required at additional expense.
