The Full Form of TVEH is Transport Vehicle.
Transport vehicle means a cargo-carrying vehicle such as an automobile, van, tractor, truck, semitrailer, tank car or rail car used for the transportation of a cargo by any mode. Each cargo-carrying body (trailer, rail car, etc.) is a separate transport vehicle.
The Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) of the USDOT/PHMSA contain many packagings and vehicles used for the transport in commerce of hazardous materials (HazMat).

Some, though superficially simple, may require a more detailed explanation when considered along with other packaging types. One of these is the term transport vehicle.
A transport vehicle is defined at 49 CFR 171.8:
