The directed movement of terpenoids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Terpenoids are a class of compounds characterized by an isoprenoid chemical structure and include derivatives with various functional groups. The directed movement of tetraterpenoids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Tetraterpenoids are terpenoids with eight isoprene units. The directed movement of carotenoids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Carotenoids are tetraterpenoid compounds in which two units of 4 isoprenoid residues joined head-to-tail are themselves joined tail-to-tail.
