Frequently asked questions
Is there a minimum storage period?
It depends on the cargo and your requirement. A small minimum storage and handling charge applies; we tell you exactly what it is in the quote.
How fast can I move in?
Usually very fast once space is confirmed. Container unloading times are on our container stuffing and destuffing page.
What is the difference between Jebel Ali and JAFZA?
Jebel Ali is the wider area around the port, including mainland industrial land. JAFZA is the free zone next to the port. Free-zone storage suits cargo for re-export; mainland storage suits goods sold in the UAE. We match the location to your plan.
Can storage include pickup and delivery?
Yes. We collect from the port or your premises and deliver on your instruction.
Can I visit my stock?
Yes, by appointment.
