Full container or buy from stock?

Big projects save by importing a whole container. Smaller jobs are better served from stock. Here is how to decide.

Container being loaded with timber
In short

Pre-book a full 40 ft container when your project needs large, predictable volumes of one or two products and you can wait for shipment and store the material; it gives the lowest unit price. Buy from ASU Trading’s Sharjah stock when you need material now, in mixed sizes, or in smaller quantities.
