The Leg Before Everything Else
Collection From Supplier or Warehouse
Most shipments fail at the start rather than the end: the supplier is not ready, the vehicle is wrong for the loading bay, or nobody agreed who lifts the goods. First-mile collection is a job in its own right, and we treat it as one. Part of our land transportation services.
Where We Collect From
Any Origin Point in the UAE
Collection is arranged directly with the origin, so you are not relaying dates between your supplier and a transport company.
- Suppliers and manufacturers
- Free zone facilities and warehouses
- Ports and terminals
- Trade markets in Deira and Bur Dubai
- Retail and distribution sites
- Exhibition and project sites

Collection is rarely the whole job. It usually feeds one of these, and booking them together avoids a second company and a second handover.
Straight into storage
Goods go into one of our three Dubai facilities and wait there until they are needed. See warehousing and storage.
Onward by road
Collection feeds directly into a full truckload or a part load, domestically or cross-border.
Packing before it travels
Where the goods are not ready to move, they can be packed or crated first. See professional packing.
Export clearance
For goods leaving the country, collection runs into the export declaration prepared by our own customs team.
Arranged Around the Origin
What Makes a Collection Work
A collection that goes wrong usually went wrong before the truck arrived.
-
The right vehicle for the bay
Vehicle size matched to the access at the origin, so the truck that turns up can actually load.
-
Lifting agreed in advance
Whether the supplier loads, or whether we bring the equipment - decided at booking rather than at the gate.
-
Collection confirmed with the supplier
We deal directly with the origin on timing and readiness, instead of routing every question back through you.
Why Cannata
One Company From the First Leg Onwards
A separate collection contractor means a handover, and a handover means someone to chase when the goods are not where they should be. Space is available at any of our three Dubai facilities, so stock can sit where it is most useful rather than where there happens to be room.
Our own vehicles
Collection runs on our fleet, so the date you are given is one we control.
Three Dubai hubs
Deira, Umm Ramool and Jebel Ali Free Zone, so collected goods have somewhere to go immediately.
Straight into the next leg
Storage, onward transport, packing and customs are all ours, so collection does not end at a handover.
