Where we collect from in Qatif Governorate
We pick up from Qatif city, Saihat, Safwa, Tarout, Anak, Al Qudaih, Al Jish and other towns in the governorate. Each has its own character: older traditional houses and narrow lanes in some historic quarters and on Tarout, newer villas and apartment blocks elsewhere. Before the date we ask about street width and truck parking, because the large truck that suits a long trip may not fit every lane. If your house is older with narrow access, see moving from old houses and narrow streets.
Packing that survives a long road
A trip of roughly 1,300 km or more means many hours of vibration, so long-distance packing is heavier-duty than a local move:
- Reinforced boxes for crockery and books, with no empty space inside.
- Blankets and stretch wrap for wood and sofas, with edge guards.
- Glass, mirrors and TVs carried upright and strapped.
- Large appliances emptied with moving parts secured — see appliance movers.

Arriving in Jeddah: what is different
Humidity
Jeddah is a humid coastal city. Cardboard softens if boxes sit closed for long, so unpack clothes and bedding in the first days, and avoid keeping electronics sealed in plastic for weeks.
Apartment blocks and towers
Much of Jeddah housing is flats in buildings or towers, so book the lift in advance and tell us the floor. For managed towers, see high-rise tower movers.
Tip: if you are travelling before the furniture, arrange someone to receive it in Jeddah and send us their number and the location. See also moving while you are away.
Expected timeline
| Stage | What happens |
|---|---|
| Before the date | Photos, quote, loading and delivery dates agreed |

| On the road | A long drive, usually a day or more depending on loading time |
| Delivery day | Unloading in Jeddah and reassembly |
We agree exact timing before you book. For what affects the schedule, see how long a move takes.
Should everything go to Jeddah?
Long-distance cost tracks volume, so sort before you book: old or heavy furniture you do not need may be cheaper to sell in Qatif than to move. If you may come back to the Eastern Province, part of the household can go into furniture storage. Moving for a new job? See job relocation movers.
