Al Ahsa homes and furniture volume
Homes in Al Ahsa are often large: separate men's and women's majlis, several bedrooms, a big kitchen and sometimes an annex or storeroom. Your new home in Taif may be the same size or smaller, especially if it is an apartment. So:
- Compare the new home's room sizes with your furniture before packing; a piece that will not fit the new room is not worth 1,100 km.
- Large majlis seating needs measuring against the new majlis.
- Storeroom items need strict sorting; most can be let go.
Use our moving inventory list to organise this, and for majlis furniture see majlis furniture movers.
The road: Al Ahsa to Riyadh, then west
The usual route runs from Al Ahsa to Riyadh and then west to Taif, about 1,100 km depending on your Taif district. The last stretch climbs toward the highlands, and summer road heat is high, so:
| Concern | What we do |
|---|---|
| Heat inside the truck | Full wrapping for appliances and sensitive items, early-morning loading |
| Long-road vibration | Load strapped in stages, corners protected |
| Glass and mirrors | Foam and heavy cardboard, loaded upright |
| Wooden furniture | Full dismantling, pieces and fittings numbered |
Arriving in Taif
Some Taif districts sit on sloping ground and some side streets are narrow or steep. We ask for the new home location and a photo of the entrance so we know whether the truck can stop at the door. In summer Taif draws many visitors and some roads get busy, so we agree a suitable delivery time. After unloading we reassemble beds and wardrobes and place items in their rooms.
We do not use an external lifting crane. Large pieces are dismantled before loading and moved via stairs or elevator in Taif.
Loading in Al Ahsa: Hofuf, Al Mubarraz and villages
We load from Hofuf and Al Mubarraz districts and from Al Ahsa villages. In villages and older quarters streets can be narrower, so we choose the truck size after seeing the location. In newer schemes villas are larger and may need a bigger crew or an extra day for dismantling and packing. See movers in Al Ahsa and, for Al Mubarraz, movers in Al Mubarraz.
If your move is tied to a date
Many moves to Taif are linked to a new job or the start of a school year. Book a few days before that date and arrange to receive the new home before the furniture arrives. If the home is delayed, temporary storage is a practical option; see furniture storage. If you travel ahead of the truck, see moving while you are away.
From heat to mild weather: preparing the new home
Taif is higher than Al Ahsa, milder, and noticeably colder in winter. If you move before winter, keep blankets and winter clothes in clearly marked boxes that are easy to open first, not at the bottom of the load. If you have outdoor seating in Al Ahsa, consider whether you will use it in the new home before moving it so far. Pack an "open first" box with basic kitchen items, bed sheets, phone chargers and simple tools. For settling in, see unpacking after a move. We also move in the opposite direction, from Taif to Al Ahsa, with the same plan.
