English-Italian translations for shipment

• carico
  In questo modo, si eviterebbe che tali inquinanti presenti nei rifiuti siano esportati da paesi che invece potrebbero e dovrebbero farsene carico. This would help to avoid shipments of POPs in waste from countries that could and should deal with the waste themselves.
  In caso di manutenzione o riparazione insufficienti, le unità di carico possono mettere a rischio il trasporto delle merci, il trasbordo nelle aree portuali e così via. If loading units are not properly maintained and repaired, they can pose a danger in goods transportation, in port during trans-shipment etc.
  Di conseguenza possono passare mesi, o addirittura anni, prima che una procedura per un carico venga espletata o, come si dice in gergo, venga appurata. As a result, the completion - the discharge, as the jargon has it - of an individual procedure for an individual shipment can sometimes take months, or even years.
