== Why no T1 haulers? ==

T1 haulers fill a niche created by the fact that other ships simply cannot hold as much as [[haulers]]. If all you want to do is move a large amount of gas, ore, minerals, or planetary commodities from one station or structure within or to a nearby system, then you might consider training up the relevant faction's hauler to fly a [[Haulers#Specialized_transports|specialized hauler]]. For example, at {{Sk|Gallente Hauler|V}} the [[Miasmos]] can hold 63,000m3 which is almost as much as much as a Deep Space Transport's fleet hangar at max skills, but it has a paper tank that cannot hold up against any ganker. Moving anything valuable over longer distances~~, such as from Stacmon to Jita~~, puts your cargo at an unnecessary risk. Moving short distances in a T1 hauler in hisec is generally safe, ~~but beyond that~~ T2 haulers are necessary to prevent the loss of ~~all~~ your cargo.

If you are a member of EVE University and cannot train into T2 hauling ships because you are an {{clonestate|alpha}}, consider using the [[Hauling_Department|University Hauling Service]] to move your stuff around safely for free and the [[Buyback|University Buyback Program]] to sell goods for profit.
