transportables

Things carried easily

Things that can be moved from one place to another.

The term appears in logistics, military contexts, and legal documents to classify items by their movability: The manifest listed all transportables for the convoy.

In computing, transportables were early portable computers—smaller than desktops but larger than true laptops.
