Definition: The Transportation and Warehousing sector includes
industries providing transportation of passengers and cargo, warehousing and
storage for goods, scenic and sightseeing transportation, and support
activities related to modes of transportation. Establishments in these
industries use transportation equipment or transportation related facilities as
a productive asset. The type of equipment depends on the mode of
transportation. The modes of transportation are air, rail, water, road, and
pipeline.
Many of the establishments in this sector often operate on networks, with
physical facilities, labor forces, and equipment spread over an extensive
geographic area.
Excluded from this sector are establishments primarily engaged in providing
travel agent services that support transportation and other establishments,
such as hotels, businesses, and government agencies. These establishments are
classified in Sector 56, Administrative and Support, Waste Management, and
Remediation Services. Also, establishments primarily engaged in providing
rental and leasing of transportation equipment without operator are classified
in Subsector 532, Rental and Leasing Services.
