Shipping container is a container with strength suitable to withstand shipment, storage, and handling. In the context of international shipping trade, shipping container is designed to be moved from one mode of transport to another without unloading and reloading.
Shipping container is a reusable transport and storage unit for moving products and raw materials between countries and locations. It is used for long distance trade and dramatically reduces the cost of transportation.
A shipping container is standardized, certified, configured, weather tight, and structurally sound for transportation of goods.
