transport
'der Transport' and 'die Logistik' both belong to the area of goods and movement. 'Transport' specifically means that people or things are taken from one place to another. 'Logistik' is much broader: it means the planning and organization of goods, routes, schedules, and information. The words can be confused because transport can be part of logistics. If you only mean the driving or transporting, 'Transport' fits. If you mean the whole organization behind it, 'Logistik' is more precise.
