cargo barge
Flat freight vessel
A cargo barge is a flat-bottomed vessel designed to transport heavy goods on rivers, canals, and coastal waters.
Unlike ships, barges typically lack their own propulsion and are pushed or towed by tugboats.
They carry bulk materials like coal, grain, gravel, and shipping containers: A string of cargo barges moved slowly up the Mississippi.
