Container shipping

Container transportation is a modern way of transporting goods, popular for its safety, economy and speed of delivery. Container transportation is characterized by one-dimensionality (20- and 40-foot containers), that is why there is the possibility for their transportation by various means of transport: road, sea, rail and air; reducing time spent on loading and unloading.
