freight services
Commercial goods hauling
Freight services are businesses that transport goods and cargo, typically over long distances.
The term covers trucking, shipping, rail, and air cargo operations—anything moving commercial goods rather than passengers.
Companies use freight services for everything from raw materials to finished products: We switched freight services to cut shipping costs.
