Break-bulk cargo
"break-bulk cargo" refers to goods or commodities that are transported individually, rather than in bulk or containerized form. These are typically non-containerized or oversized items that cannot be easily loaded into standardized containers. Break-bulk cargo requires individual handling and stowage, often involving the use of pallets, crates, or other specialized packaging. Examples of break-bulk cargo include heavy machinery, vehicles, project cargo, and large equipment.
