International Relocation (From / To Dubai)

Survey & move planning (recommended)

• ●Video survey or in-home survey to estimate shipment size and requirements
• ●Route planning: air freight vs sea freight vs partial shipment
• ●Guidance on destination requirements and preparation steps (documents, timing, restrictions)

Professional export packing

• ●Export-grade packing using international removal cartons and reinforced protection
• ●Disassembly, wrapping, itemising, and preparation for international transit
• ●Optional: custom crating coordination (artwork, fragile items, specialty pieces)

Inventory & shipping documentation

• ●Detailed customs export packing list / inventory compiled for your shipment
• ●Shipment booking with sea or air carrier (through freight partners)
• ●Shipment tracking links where available

Freight coordination (sea or air)

• ●Full container (FCL) or shared container (LCL) depending on volume and destination lane
• ●Air freight for boxes / personal effects
• ●Sea freight for full home moves; air for urgent/smaller shipments

Customs clearance & destination delivery

• ●Document checks and coordination to facilitate customs clearance at destination
• ●Destination delivery, unpacking, furniture placement, debris removal (when included)
• ●Optional storage at origin or destination (subject to availability and scope)

What you should prepare (customer checklist)

To reduce delays and unexpected charges, be ready with:

• Passport copy and visa/residency documents valid for destination
• Active inventory of items to be shipped
• Any destination-specific approvals (if needed)

UAE move-in: personal-use items may be duty-exempt; new/commercial quantities may incur duty. Documents typically include passport, residency visa, and inventory list.

Important restrictions (air/sea safety – avoid shipment holds)

Many shipments are delayed due to restricted or dangerous goods.

Common items that can cause problems:

• ●Aerosols, paints, solvents, certain cleaning chemicals
• ●Gas cylinders / flammables
• ●Li-ion batteries / hoverboards — battery packs can be high fire hazard

Best policy: If an item has a hazard symbol or contains chemicals/pressurised contents, tell us before packing so we can advise safely.

What's included (standard international relocation package)

• Survey (video/on-site) and shipment plan
• Export packing and furniture preparation
• Inventory / packing list for customs
• Pickup and transport to origin facility/port/airport (as per plan)
• Freight coordination via partner network
• Destination delivery (based on selected package)

Exact inclusions vary by lane (country), shipment size, and service level. We confirm scope and exclusions before booking.

Extras (quoted separately)

To keep pricing honest and controlled, these are typically add-ons:

• ●Storage at origin/destination
• ●Custom crating (artwork/fragile/special items)
• ●Special handling for high-value items
• ●Destination services beyond delivery/unpacking (where applicable)
• ●Any destination inspection fees, port/terminal fees, or customs charges (country-dependent)

Do you offer door-to-door international relocation?

Yes — we can arrange door-to-door handling through our partner network depending on destination.

Can I ship by air if I'm in a hurry?

Yes, for smaller/urgent shipments. Sea freight is usually more economical for full home moves.

Do you help with customs rules by country?

We guide you on documents and common requirements, but rules vary by country. Many movers reference country customs guides such as those published by FIDI (informational resource).

Is my shipment insured?

We offer guidance on coverage options and will explain what applies before booking (based on declared value and terms).

What items should not be shipped?

Hazardous/dangerous goods (chemicals, aerosols, some batteries) can be restricted—tell us in advance so we can advise.
