commercial freight
Business transport loads
Commercial freight is goods transported for business purposes, typically in large quantities by truck, rail, ship, or air.
The term distinguishes business cargo from personal shipments or passenger transport: The port handles millions of tons of commercial freight annually.
Freight rates, shipping logistics, and supply chain management all center on moving commercial freight efficiently.
