Cargo Services / Freight Services

I think "Cargo Services" is more Generic.

There are several types of cargo services available, including air cargo, sea cargo, road cargo, rail cargo, and intermodal cargo services.

"There are four major types of freight transportation available for shippers to use in the world of freight shipping. The primary ones are by ground (road), rail, ocean, and air."

"Cargo and shipment are shipping terms that are sometimes used interchangeably but have slightly different meanings. It’s essential to understand the difference so you use the correct terms when you communicate about cargo vs. shipment with your eCommerce fulfillment service and other providers.
Today, cargo most often refers to the containers in ocean shipping, but shippers can transport cargo by airplane, truck, or train as well. Cargo is a generic term for all the items onboard a container ship or other form of transport.
Freight refers to shipments of bulk goods. Cargo and freight are generally the same."
