transportable

Can be carried

Transportable describes something that can be moved from one place to another.

The word emphasizes practical movability—a transportable generator is designed to be relocated, unlike a permanent installation.

Equipment marketed as transportable suggests it's lighter or more compact than standard versions: transportable ultrasound machines, transportable satellite dishes.

The term sits between portable (easily carried by hand) and mobile (capable of moving itself).
