No containers are listed for sale in the Makkah Region today, so storage boxes, site offices and reefers for Jeddah, Mecca, Taif or KAEC have to be sourced another way for now. Buyers who send a purchase request reach verified sellers throughout Saudi Arabia, and those sellers can quote for delivery between regions. National stock is on the containers for sale page, with separate pages for Riyadh and the Dammam Eastern Province.
A container listing gives the type, the length, the condition and the seller's phone and WhatsApp number, plus a price in SAR when the seller chooses to show it. From there the deal is between the two parties: a viewing in the yard or by video call, an agreed price and a delivery date. Buyers pay EquipmentsFinder nothing at any stage.
Plain steel boxes with lockable doors. On building sites in Jeddah and Taif they serve as tool and material stores, and traders place them in yards as low-cost warehousing.
Insulated units fitted with windows, a door, lighting, sockets and usually an air-conditioning unit. They end up as site offices, security cabins and rest areas on projects from North Jeddah to Mecca.
A reefer carries its own cooling unit and needs a steady power supply. Caterers and food distributors working through the pilgrimage season in Mecca buy them as standalone cold rooms.
Boxes cut and fitted out as washrooms, kitchens, workshops, kiosks or sleeping quarters. Quality depends on the fabricator, so ask who did the conversion and look closely at the wiring and plumbing.
Length is the first decision: the shorter standard box fits a tight plot and a smaller truck, while the long box gives more floor space for each delivery and placement. High-cube boxes add headroom for shelving or an office ceiling. Along the Jeddah coast, humid salty air attacks roofs, door seals and floor cross-members, so those are the places to look on any used unit.
With no listings in the region, there is no SAR range to publish. Each seller prices their own stock and shows it on the listing or gives it on request. A used storage box is valued on its condition grade, from cargo-worthy through wind- and watertight to as-is; an office or converted unit on its fit-out; a reefer on the age of its cooling machinery. Delivery, offloading and VAT are settled with the seller.
When listings appear here, each will show where the container stands: in the yards around Jeddah Islamic Port and Al Balad, near Al Hamra and the Corniche, by the airport and North Jeddah, out at Obhur, or in Mecca and Taif. Sellers with stock can advertise it free, and the Makkah Region buying page links the other categories. Short-term needs are covered on the container hire page.
List the type, the length, the condition wanted, the quantity, a budget in SAR and the delivery address. Requests are shown to sellers on the inquiry board.
There is no local price to compare against today, because no containers are listed for sale in the region. A fair price depends on type and condition: an as-is storage box sits at the low end, while a fitted office or a reefer with a working cooling unit costs well above it. Asking two or three sellers to quote on the same specification is the quickest way to judge.
Start with the use. Storage needs a sound, watertight box; an office needs insulation, power and air conditioning; cold storage needs a reefer and a reliable power supply. Then pick the length that suits the plot and the access road, since a long box needs a bigger truck and more room to set down. High-cube boxes suit racking.
For storage, a used box in wind- and watertight condition usually does the job for far less than a new one. A new or one-trip container makes sense where appearance matters, such as a site office facing the public in central Jeddah, or for a conversion where a clean shell saves work. Reefers are a closer call, because the age of the cooling unit drives reliability.
Yes, most sellers will let a buyer see the container in their yard, and the contact details on the listing are the way to book it. Step inside with the doors shut to look for daylight through the roof or walls, check the floor for soft spots, and open and close both doors. For a reefer, ask to see the unit run down to temperature.
An invoice or sale agreement recording the container's identification number, the agreed price and the condition grade is the core document. Payment terms and the delivery date should be in writing too. For a refrigerated or converted unit, ask for any service records or electrical test reports, and confirm with the seller who arranges the crane truck for offloading.
Delivery is handled by the seller or a transport firm they work with, and whether it reaches a given site depends on the seller. The cost, the truck type and who offloads the box are stated on the listing or agreed when the buyer makes contact. Site access matters, because a crane truck or side-lifter needs room to position the container.
