Shipping Containers for Sale in Al Ain, Delivered to Your Site

Al Ain is the Abu Dhabi emirate's main inland city, on the border with Oman's Al Buraimi. It's a spread-out city of residential districts, government and university campuses, and a large belt of farms and date plantations.

Most container demand comes from three places. Al Ain Industrial Area (Sanaiya) is workshops, car repair, building materials and trading yards close to the city. Al Ain Industrial City is a planned industrial zone on the city's outskirts, with larger plots for manufacturers. Farms around the city and out into the desert need dry, lockable storage.

Northern districts such as Al Hili, and new villa and infrastructure projects across the city, add steady demand for site stores and offices.

• Farm owners who need a dry steel store for feed, tools, pumps and equipment. A sealed box also keeps out dust and pests better than a shed.
• Sanaiya workshops and traders who've run out of space on the plot.
• Contractors on villa, school and road projects who need a lockable site store or office.
• Manufacturers setting up in Al Ain Industrial City who need storage before the warehouse is finished.

Delivery to Al Ain is next day. A 20ft is the usual farm store and Sanaiya workshop box. A 40ft holds bulk feed, pumps and stock. An insulated office is what villa and school sites ask for in summer. Delivery is quoted on request.

• Farm plots are often soft sand. Send a photo of the spot so we can tell you whether it needs compacting, sleepers, or a crane lift.
• Check the farm or plot gate width and any low trees or cables on the track in.
• Inland Al Ain gets hotter in summer than the coast. For an office or cabin, ask for insulation and an AC opening. For storage, a light-coloured box with vents stays cooler.
• Date farms and fodder stores do well with a vented used box. Equipment and pumps do better in a cargo-worthy unit with a sound floor.

• 20ft container: Farm stores, villa plots and Sanaiya workshops. Used AED 3,900.
• 40ft Standard container: Bulk feed, equipment and stock, and the most space per delivery. Ask us, we offer 40HC.
• Container office or site cabin: Insulated and AC-ready for Al Ain summers.
