container terminals
Container terminals are specialized areas in ports where cargo containers are loaded, unloaded, stored, and transferred between ships and other transportation modes like trucks and trains. They consist of cranes, storage yards, and transportation infrastructure designed to efficiently handle large volumes of containerized freight. These terminals are crucial for global trade, enabling goods to move rapidly across countries and continents. The process involves meticulous planning to ensure containers are quickly and safely transferred, optimizing shipping operations and reducing delays in the supply chain.
