 For in-depth information about volumes, refer to [manage data in containers](https://docs.docker.com/engine/tutorials/dockervolumes/)
 
+### Add bin-mounts or volumes using the --mounts flag
+
+The `--mounts` flag allows you to mount volumes, host-directories and `tmpfs`
+mounts in a container.
+
+The `--mount` flag supports most options that are supported by the `-v` or the
+`--volume` flag, but uses a different syntax. For in-depth information on the
+`--mount` flag, and a comparison between `--volume` and `--mount`, refer to
+the [service create command reference](service_create.md#add-bind-mounts-or-volumes).
+
+Examples:
+
+    $ docker run --read-only --mount type=volume,target=/icanwrite busybox touch /icanwrite/here
+    $ docker run -t -i --mount type=bind,src=/data,dst=/data busybox sh
+
