SAN PABLO, CA, April 08, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- The shipping experts of West Coast Shipping are hoping to educate American consumers by explaining how to ship a vehicle to Jebel Ali from a Copart auction.
"If you want to get a good deal on a car then you should consider checking out a vehicle auction site such as Copart," notes Alex Naumov of WC Shipping.com. "However, if you need to have that vehicle shipped to an international location, such as port Jebel Ali in Dubai, then it can complication the process. However, as you can see from the article below shipping a car to Jebel Ali from a Copart auction does not need to be a stressful task."
Shipping an Automobile to Jebel Ali
According to Wikipedia, Jebel Ali is a port town, located 35 kilometres southwest of the city of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The port's construction began in the late 1970s along with Jebel Ali Village (built around 1977) which was used, initially, for the construction workers of the port. The village has a thriving expatriate community with over 300 residents. With 67 berths and a size of 134.68 square kilometer (52 square miles), Jebel Ali is the world's largest man-made harbour and the biggest port in the Middle East.
