amandahirst2007 : why is it that when you ship something by
car it's called shipment and when it's shipped by boat it's
called cargo
Vincent_Valentine9 : Cargo is simply a term to describe
something held on a ship, plane, truck or train. It has
nothing to do with what the cargo is actually used for. The
"Shipment" is an item being moved, it got it's name because
back in the day, before cars, ships and boats down rivers and
oceans were the main form of travel.
Vincent_Valentine9 : When Planes, trains and automobiles began
to be used, the term simply carried over.
