Hauling containers involves transporting large shipping containers typically used in international and intermodal shipping, often from ports to warehouses. Hauling trucks generally refer to transporting various types of freight over roads, including different cargo types. While both roles require a CDL and involve freight movement, container hauling is more specialized in port and intermodal settings, whereas hauling trucks covers a broader range of freight routes and cargo types.
