How do you calculate my moving quote in Dubai ?

In order to calculate your moving quote, we must first understand your specific moving needs. Our fixed price quotes are determined by the following elements: 

1. Volume: The volume of furniture and boxes you have will affect the resources required, such as removal men, packing materials, and vehicles. Larger and heavier items will take more time and effort, while securely packed boxes are more manageable.

2. Distance: The longer the transport distance, the more time and fuel is needed to travel between properties.

3. Stairs & Lifts: Every box and piece of furniture must be moved by hand or trolleys. So we need to take into account any stairs or lifts. The more stairs the more men we might need. The smaller the lifts the more time we may need.

4. Parking: The closer we can park to your property, the easier and quicker it'll be to move your belongings in and out. Ideally, a driveway or parking spot right outside would be perfect. But if we have to park more than about 20 meters away, we will need to account for more lifting and carrying, which will take up extra time.

5. Dismantling and Reassembling: The number of items that need to be dismantled and reassembled must also be considered. Disassembling and preparing a 2 door wardrobe or a bed frame can take 30 minutes to 1 hour for 2 removal experts, depending on the complexity. Reassembling on the other side may take slightly longer.

in order to provide you with our best quote we recommend completing our quick quote form so we can contact you to to perform a quick onsite or video home survey. With all of the above information, we can calculate the number of men required, the time needed, and the size and number of vehicles needed.

Are there any prohibited items ?

For the safety of everyone involved, there are specific items we can't move due to health and safety guidelines. These include animals, statues, perishable goods, dangerous materials, drugs, guns, and explosives. Also, super heavy items or anything that could endanger our team or others are off-limits. If you think you might have something on this list, please let us know ahead of time so we can double-check.
