amandahirst2007 : why is it that when you ship something by vehicle 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 cause back in the day, bfeore 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.
