containerload
Shipping unit quantity
A containerload is the quantity that fills a shipping container—typically the standard intermodal containers used in global freight transport.
The term measures cargo by container rather than by weight or volume: We ordered a containerload of electronics from Shenzhen.
Like truckload or shipload, it implies a large commercial quantity.
