Not moving from the container terminal (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inert

'not moving' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'from the container terminal' is the wordplay.
'from' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'INERT' is hidden in the letters of 'container terminal'.

(Other definitions for inert that I've seen before include "(Chem.) not reactive" , "Not chemically active" , "Lifeless, sluggish" , "like nitrogen" , "Sluggish, inactive" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
