portable container
Transportable storage vessel
A portable container is any vessel designed to be carried or moved easily while holding its contents—bags, boxes, bottles, bins, coolers, and the like.
The phrase appears most often in regulations and technical contexts: Portable containers must be labeled with their contents.
In everyday speech, people usually just say what kind of container they mean.
