In a transport container, at least one fuel assembly containing element including at least one fuel assembly is housed in a container having an inner surface portion to be fit to the at least one fuel assembly containing element. The inner surface portion has a predetermined shape substantially corresponding to a fit portion of the at least one fuel assembly containing element. The at least one fuel assembly containing element is pushed by a support against the inner surface portion of the container along a fixed support direction. Therefore, the fit portion of the at least one fuel assembly containing element is fit to the inner surface portion of the container so that the at least one fuel assembly containing element is fixedly supported to the container.
