Preferred label	Transport; packaging and storage of goods; travel arrangement
Definition	Transport of anything or any person by any manner or means is classified in Class 39. From air transport to distribution of electricity, any service that has movement as its primary function is classified in this class. This is true even if the purpose of the transport is not simply travel. Thus, ambulance transport, armored-car transport and transport for rescue operations are in Class 39, rather than in the class of the ultimate purpose of the transport. This class also includes packaging of goods for the purpose of transport or storage. Storage of goods whether those goods are in transit or remain in the same location in which they are stored for future retrieval by the owner of the goods is in Class 39. Arrangement of travel itself is in Class 39. Thus, while most brokerage services are in Class 36, freight and transport brokerage is in Class 39 because it is the arrangement of transportation of goods. Also, the services of a travel agency that involves the arrangement of travel is in Class 39 while other services provided by a travel agency are in other services classes, such as issuance of travellers' checks in Class 36 and making arrangements for lodging or meals while travelling are in Class 43.
