cargo vessel
Goods-hauling ship
A cargo vessel is a ship designed to transport goods rather than passengers.
The term appears in maritime, legal, and commercial contexts where precision matters: The cargo vessel was detained at port for inspection.
Freighter and cargo ship mean the same thing but sound less formal.
