transporters
Vehicles hauling cargo
Transporters are vehicles or devices that move people or goods from one place to another: cargo transporters, car transporters.
In biology, transporters are proteins that move molecules across cell membranes.
In science fiction, a transporter is a device that instantaneously relocates matter—most famously in Star Trek: Beam me up.
