    Market overview

    Shipping containers in Ashdod

    Ashdod is the container port closest to Israel's central and southern population and industrial centres, with Tel Aviv about 40 km away and Jerusalem and Beersheba about 70 km. Container handling is split between two operators in the same port, the Ashdod Port Company and the TIL-built Hadarom terminal, so the terminal involved depends on the shipping line and service. Israel's container trade is concentrated on the Mediterranean: trade press reported that Eilat, on the Red Sea, handled no containers in 2025 because of the security situation in the Red Sea. Demand in Ashdod comes from importers and distributors, construction contractors, industrial plants in the northern industrial zone, which includes one of Israel's two oil refineries, and food processors. Inland delivery relies mainly on road haulage while rail links to the port are being extended, and reefers move by truck only. Buyers should define the type, grade, collection terminal and delivery address before requesting a quote, and confirm the customs treatment if the unit is to stay in Israel.

    Port & gateway status

    The Port of Ashdod, about 40 km south of Tel Aviv, is one of Israel's two main Mediterranean container gateways alongside Haifa. The state-owned Ashdod Port Company operates the established port, including the deep-water Eitan container quays, and handled 361,000 TEU in the first half of 2025, a 40.4% share of Israel's local container market. A second operator works in the same port: the Hadarom (South) Container Terminal, built for Terminal Investment Ltd (TIL) on two new quays of 800 m and 500 m and completed in 2021.

    Inland logistics

    Road haulage is the main way containers reach inland sites: Ashdod lies about 40 km from Tel Aviv and about 70 km from Jerusalem and Beersheba, and the port uses a central automated truck gate with 32 lanes. Israel Railways has been building a freight link, including a 2.2 km tunnel line, to the new southern terminal, and is doubling and electrifying the Rehovot–Pleshet line at the port entrance. Container terminals in the port's hinterland are operated by Overseas Commerce Ltd on 421,000 m² of open and covered space. Maersk lists a rail-served depot at Ashdod but notes that reefers in Israel move by truck only.

    Local industries served

    import distribution and wholesale, construction and building materials, oil refining and energy, pharmaceutical manufacturing, food and edible-oil processing, port and maritime services

    Typical buyer profile

    Importers and distributors serving central and southern Israel, construction contractors, plants in Ashdod's northern industrial zone and food businesses buy or lease containers here for export loading, site storage and temperature-controlled goods.

    Container type focus

    The 20DC and 40HC carry most demand, the 20DC for heavy goods and compact site storage and the 40HC for volume imports and distribution, while 40RF and 20RF reefers matter for food flows that must move by road in Israel.

    Condition focus

    Cargo Worthy and IICL units suit export loading and onward shipping, Brand New / One-Trip units suit long-term storage, conversions and site offices, and As-Is units suit static storage on construction and industrial sites after inspection.

    FAQ

    Questions about containers in Ashdod

    Container prices in Ashdod are quoted on request, because several factors change the final figure. The grade comes first: Brand New / One-Trip, Cargo Worthy, IICL and As-Is units are priced differently. Size and type follow, with 20DC, 40DC, 40HC and reefers each forming a separate market. The collection point matters, as units are released from a terminal or depot in or near the port, and road delivery to a site in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem or the Negev adds haulage and unloading. If the container is to remain in Israel for storage or site use, its customs treatment should be confirmed with a licensed customs broker. Availability of the requested type at the time is the last factor.
    Two operators handle containers in Ashdod. The state-owned Ashdod Port Company runs the established port, including the deep-water Eitan container quays, and handled 361,000 TEU in the first half of 2025. The Hadarom (South) Container Terminal was built for Terminal Investment Ltd (TIL) on two new quays of 800 m and 500 m and completed in 2021. Container terminals in the port's hinterland are operated by Overseas Commerce Ltd. Which facility is involved in a purchase or lease depends on where the unit is positioned and on the shipping line. The release reference and gate procedure are confirmed with each order.
    Yes, by road. Ashdod lies about 40 km from Tel Aviv and about 70 km from Jerusalem and Beersheba, and trucks enter and leave the port through a central automated gate with 32 lanes. Israel Railways is extending freight rail access to the port, including a 2.2 km tunnel line to the new southern terminal, but deliveries to a final site are made by truck. Reefers in Israel move by truck only. Before ordering, check that the delivery vehicle can reach the placement area, whether a side-loader or crane is needed, and that the ground is firm and level for a 20-foot or 40-foot unit.
    A reefer is needed when goods must be kept chilled or frozen, either in transit or in static storage. Ashdod's hinterland includes food processors and importers, and the long, hot Israeli summer makes a closed dry container unsuitable for perishable or heat-sensitive products. A 20RF suits smaller volumes or tight sites, a 40RF suits larger volumes, and a 40HC RF adds internal height for palletised loads. Reefers in Israel move by truck only, so delivery is always by road. For static use, confirm a suitable three-phase power supply on site before ordering, and choose a Cargo Worthy or newer unit if the reefer will be shipped again.
    The choice depends on the cargo, the site and the length of use. A 20DC suits heavy, dense goods such as building materials, machinery parts or bagged products, where weight rather than volume is the limit, and is easier to place on constrained urban or construction sites. A 40DC or 40HC suits lighter, bulkier goods and larger storage needs; the 40HC adds internal height, which helps with racking and with conversions into site offices. For export loading, choose Cargo Worthy or IICL units. For deliveries in dense areas of Tel Aviv or Jerusalem, confirm street access and truck manoeuvring space before choosing a 40-foot unit.
