T HERE is today a renewed interest in the area of transportation and transportation packaging. A great deal of time and effort is being expended in the search for answers to problems of commodity movement. Much of this is being spent in efforts to secure lower freight rates in a rather conventional manner. At the same time there is a move toward greater efficiency and economy in transportation through new procedures and techniques. The latter is the area of greatest promise and is the subject of this discussion.
