Containerships

Containerships are large ships designed to transport cargo in standardized steel containers, often called containers or shipping containers. These ships facilitate efficient, bulk movement of goods across oceans by loading and unloading these containers, which can hold anything from electronics to clothing. The standardized size allows containers to be easily transferred between ships, trucks, and trains, streamlining international trade. Containerships come in various sizes, from feeder ships serving regional routes to mega-vessels capable of carrying thousands of containers, playing a crucial role in global supply chains by enabling the cost-effective and reliable movement of large quantities of goods worldwide.
