What is Intermodal Transportation?

Intermodal transportation means the transportation of a load in a single transport unit (container, trailer, swap body, etc.) with more than one transport mode (e.g. train and truck) without handling. In other words, the load is transported from point A to point B without emptying the contents of the container, only by changing the transport vehicle.
