Moving between UAQ Free Trade Zone and nearby areas
Short hops inside Umm Al Quwain are some of the most common work we do here. UAQ Free Trade Zone borders Al Salamah, Al Ramlah, Al Maidan and Al Raas, and a move between any two of those is normally a single day because the drive is minutes rather than hours. The variable is the access at each end, not the distance: a gate pass is needed at each end, and communities that cap truck size force a second run with a smaller vehicle.
