Across the Middle East, demand for secure and flexible storage continues to grow - from construction and energy projects to retail, logistics and events.
Shipping containers have become the go-to solution, offering durability, mobility, and scalability to meet diverse requirements.
But with several options available, the question remains: which container is right for your storage needs?
The Most Common Choices
20ft Containers

Compact yet efficient, the 20ft unit is ideal for sites with limited space. It provides reliable, secure storage for equipment, tools, and smaller-scale requirements, while remaining easy to position and transport.
40ft Containers

When larger capacity is needed, the 40ft container provides double the space, making it a practical choice for bulk goods or long-term storage. Many businesses in the region prefer this option as it reduces the need for multiple smaller units.
High Cube Containers
For oversized items or when additional vertical space is required, High Cube containers offer extra internal height. They are particularly useful in sectors where airflow, stacking, or bulky equipment are key considerations.
