3. Transport costs.
The main transports costs benefits of containerization are jointly the outcome of lower transshipment costs and economies of scale applied to maritime shipping and terminal operations. Since containerized cargo is subject to less damage as well as lower theft levels, insurance rates are generally lower. Another significant benefit is that the container itself becomes the minimal load unit, implying that a wider range of exporters and importers can get access to international markets as the minimal entry unit, a single container load, becomes affordable. .

4. Inventory costs.
A container is its own storage unit, implying that warehousing is blurred and therefore takes place during transport, at the terminal as well as in the conventional warehouse. Packing (stuffing) costs are reduced as well as the packaging of the goods being carried. All of this is linked with faster levels of inventory turnover and cash flow.

5. Service level.
Containerized transport chains tend to be more reliable since the modes involved are more consistent in their service timeframe. Intermodal operations are much faster, implying that the same assets can be used more frequently. Containerized services have therefore a higher service frequency, which facilitates supply chain management.
