Scope of this page: short-term furniture storage for people living in Khobar or moving to or from it. For the general service see furniture storage, and for Dammam furniture storage in Dammam.
When do people need storage?
The cases we hear most are a gap between handing over the old flat and receiving the new one, a renovation that needs rooms emptied, a long trip or a temporary job transfer, or a new flat too small for every piece. In each case storage is a temporary solution and needs a decision in advance: what goes in and when it comes out.
We discuss the storage place, its terms and duration with you before any agreement, and we do not promise details that have not been agreed.
What is stored, and what is better not stored
- Usually suitable: beds, wardrobes, sofas, tables, shelves, emptied appliances and closed boxes.
- Needs care: wooden furniture, soft furnishings, rugs, electronics, panels and frames.
- Better not stored: food, medicine, flammable materials, official papers and jewellery.
Tell us what you have so we can confirm it suits storage.
Preparing pieces before storage
Khobar is a coastal city, and humidity and dust do the most harm to stored items that are not wrapped well. We wrap furniture in protective covers and blankets and keep pieces off the floor, close and number boxes and note their contents. Empty the fridge and washer, dry them fully and leave their doors slightly open to prevent smells and mould. For wrapping detail see furniture packing in Khobar.
The inventory: what is not seen is forgotten
The biggest problem with long storage is forgetting what you put there. Make a list of boxes and their contents and photograph large pieces before closing. The list helps you recall what you need without opening everything. There is a ready template on moving inventory list.
How to decide the duration
If you are unsure of the duration, give us the shortest and longest you expect. A flexible term is better than a tight one that forces a rush. Ask what happens on extension and how items are taken out, and where they go when they leave: to your new home in Khobar or to another city. For moves between cities see movers Khobar to Riyadh or intercity movers in Saudi Arabia.
Cost
We do not quote a figure before knowing what will be stored. Cost changes with the volume of items, the duration, wrapping, and transport to and from storage. Send a rough list and photos and we will explain what the estimate includes. See movers in Khobar if you want moving together with storage.
