Also referred to as semi-bulk, it includes all goods with loads that require special housing. These goods are generally packed, or at least contained (tied together or arranged in a specific order). It also includes so-called parcels, pallets, big cartons, rolls or barrels. As the load cannot normally be carried out with pumps or fully automated systems cranes operated by hold and quay personnel are required, which is obviously more costly than bulk transport.
