Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a used 20ft container cost in Dubai?

Used 20ft containers at Jebel Ali range from AED 4,500–7,500 depending on condition grade. New (one-trip) units are priced higher. Contact us for a current price list — availability and rates change with market demand.

Can I buy a container and export it from Dubai?

Yes. Delta Global Cargo handles the full export process — container purchase, customs clearance at Jebel Ali, and loading onto your chosen vessel. We ship to over 80 destinations worldwide.

Do you offer container storage or depot services in Dubai?

Yes. Short-term and long-term container storage is available at our Jebel Ali-area depot. We also offer container stuffing, lashing, and survey services.

What is a one-trip container?

A one-trip container has been used just once — typically shipped from the factory in China to the UAE — making it essentially new condition. One-trip containers are the highest-quality used option available and are ideal for export or conversion projects.

What is a 20GP container and why is it the most traded?

A 20GP (20-foot General Purpose) container is the standard dry shipping container — the most widely traded container type globally. Internal dimensions: 5.9 m × 2.35 m × 2.39 m, with a 28,200 kg payload. It is the preferred unit for dense cargo, machinery, building materials, and bulk commercial goods. Delta Global holds 20GP stock in new (one-trip) and graded used condition at Jebel Ali.

Do you supply multiple 20GP or 40HC containers for commercial orders?

Yes. We regularly supply 5 to 200+ units of 20GP and 40HC containers to trading companies, construction firms, and storage facility operators. Commercial and fleet buyers receive volume pricing and priority depot release. Contact us for a bulk container quote.
