Ah so my order from china is a consignment, then a shipment, then a consignment, then cargo, then a consignment, then a shipment again? Possibly with some time as freight too?

My head is now officially mashed. I just wanted to order a cheap knock-off Guchi handbag from Tian Xing from Shanghai.

Now I'm worried about all manner of statuses attached to my purchase.

Shipment is the process of movement. Cargo refers to the goods themselves

When does it become a load then

Because in transport if you brake to hard you can make the goods move and become dangerous, this is known as a shot load!!

I work for one of the largest transport companies in the world

Shipment usually refers to the process of moving goods. It can be made by road, sea or air, since it represents a group of items that will be transported from one place to another once. ... Cargo usually refers to the goods themselves, independently if they are moved by ground, sea or air.
