This part of the container handbook is divided into three main sections:
 
5.1 This section deals with modularized cargoes, which require a minimum of securing effort, but may very well consist of a variety of types of cargo.
5.2 This section contains instructions relating to the packing of individual cargoes and homogeneous container cargoes, i.e. those which consist of the same types of shipped goods or cargo units.
5.3 This section deals with the packing and securing of heterogeneous, i.e. different or dissimilar, shipped goods or cargo units. This variant occurs most frequently with grouped loads.

Each individual shipped item, or each cargo group makes specific demands on the type of cargo transport unit used and the manner of packing or securing. Differences arise due to the characteristics of the goods carried and the shipping presentation or packaging used, which determine, or at least influence, compatibility, shape, strength, packing and securing options.
