Delivery container is a container with the appropriate power to withstand shipping, storage, and handling. Delivery of containers ranging from large reusable steel boxes is used for intermodal delivery to wavy boxes everywhere. In the context of international shipping, "container" or "delivery container" is similar to "intermodal delivery container," a container designed to be moved from one mode of transportation to another without dismantling and reloading.

Cargo containers are reusable transport and storage units for moving products and raw materials between locations or countries. There are about seventeen million intermodal containers in the world, and most of the world long-distance shipments produced by international trade are transported in shipping containers. In addition, it is estimated that several million of these containers have now been discarded because shipping costs send them back to their home ports. Their discovery made a major contribution to the globalization of trade in the second half of the 20th century, which dramatically reduced the cost of freight transport and therefore long-distance trade.
Special delivery containers include: High cube containers (providing additional 1 foot (305 mm) height for standard shipping containers), pallets, open tops, side loaders, double doors or tunnel-tainers, and temperature controlled containers. Other special containers, known as Transtainers, are portable fuels and oil transport containers. Mass hybrid fuel tanks were originally intended for construction, mining, logging and agriculture sectors. Tanks can be used to transport and store bulk fuel and hazardous fluids, by road, rail and sea.
Corrugated box
Corrugated boxes are usually used as shipping containers (over 90% of all shipping containers are of this type). They are made of wavy fibers that are lightweight, recyclable, and powerful enough to deliver a variety of products.
Wooden box
Wooden boxes are often used for heavy and dense product shipments. They are sometimes specified for delivery of government or military shipments.
The
boxCrates are large containers, often made of wood, used for transporting large, heavy or strange items. The crate has a stand-alone structure, with or without a sheath.
Medium bulk delivery container
A large Intermediate container (IBC) is a container used for the transportation and storage of liquids and bulk materials. Construction may be plastic, composite, steel, stainless steel, etc. Some can be folded (folded).
Flexible Medium Bulk Container
Medium Flexible Bulk Container, FIBC , big bag , big bag , or super sack is a standard container in large dimensions to store and transport and store granular products. Often made of synthetic materials woven.
Bulkbox
The bulk bin, bulk bin, skid box, or tote box is a palette size box used for large amounts of storage and shipping.
Drum
Drum is a cylindrical delivery container made of steel, plastic or fiber. They are often used for liquid and granular materials.
Insulated
Insulated shipping containers are the type of packaging used to deliver temperature sensitive products such as food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. They are used as part of a cold chain to help maintain product freshness and efficacy.
Pail
Some buckets are used as shipping containers.
Unit load devices
Unit Loading Kit, or ULD, is a container used to transport cargo on commercial aircraft.
ULD can be a pallet or container used to load luggage, merchandise, and letters on wide-body aircraft and certain narrow-body aircraft. This allows a large number of cargo to be bundled into one unit. As this leads to fewer units to load, this saves the time and effort of the ground crew and helps prevent delayed flights. Each ULD has its own packaging list, manifest, or tracking identification to improve content control and tracking
Custom
Special containers are used for shipping products such as scientific instruments, weapons, and aviation components. Special bearings, blocking and strengthening, carrying handles, lifting rings, locks, etc. It is common to facilitate handling and protecting content. Often, these shipping containers can be reused.
Transit and flight case
Flight cases and transit cases are usually designed specifically for delivery and carrying fragile equipment: audio visuals, cameras, instruments, etc. Although generally light in construction, they tend to have reinforced edges and corners.
Road case
Road cases are often used for the delivery of musical instruments and theater props.

Reuse
The widespread and relatively inexpensive existence of the intermoda shipping containers used at the time made the architects begin to regard it as an alternative to traditional building materials. Used used containers are converted for residential use, and as retail and office space. Examples of its use include the student residential project CitÃÆ'à © A Docks in Le Havre, France; the container village Wenckehof in Amsterdam; Puma City portable stores in US cities; food and retail Boxpark in London; Bazaar Market in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan; and the temporary mall Re: START in Christchurch, New Zealand built after the Christchurch earthquake of 2011.
However, it has been shown there is a problem with recycling delivery containers, which may not be ecologically or cheaply cheaper as they may appear. Containers may be coated with hazardous chemicals such as chromate, phosphorus and lead paint, while wood floors can be treated with toxic insecticides, and some of the costs and effort involved in modifying the containers to make them habitable. Others have noted various problems such as space constraints, isolation, and structural weaknesses if too much steel is cut from the container.
