container barges

Container barges are flat-bottomed boats designed to carry large shipping containers along rivers, canals, or coastal waters. They function like floating trucks, efficiently transporting goods over water routes where building extensive rail or road infrastructure might be impractical. Container barges can be towed or pushed by tugboats, enabling the movement of heavy cargo with reduced environmental impact and cost. They are especially useful for bulk goods, large quantities of products, or in regions with extensive inland waterways, helping to connect ports, factories, and distribution centers in an economical and sustainable manner.
