Movers From Abu Dhabi to Dubai, Packed, Moved and Reassembled by One Team

Moving from Abu Dhabi to Dubai is around 140 km of road with two sets of building rules, one at each end. The movers who pack your home in Abu Dhabi are the same people who drive it to Dubai, carry it in and reassemble the furniture in your new flat or villa. Apartments usually leave in the morning and are set up in Dubai the same day. We run the same move in the other direction for families coming to Abu Dhabi from Dubai.

Abu Dhabi to Dubai

One team from your Abu Dhabi door to your Dubai door

A move between the two cities goes wrong in the gaps: one company packs, another drives, and nobody at the Dubai end knows which bag of bolts belongs to which bed. We keep it with one team. Our movers pack and label every room, take the beds, wardrobes and dining table apart, load the truck, drive the E11 to Dubai and put everything back together in the rooms you choose.

We are based in Abu Dhabi, so the move is planned from this end. Your Abu Dhabi tower or compound is booked first, the truck is timed to reach Dubai inside the slot your new building gives you, and the Darb and Salik tolls on the way are part of your price.

Staying in the capital instead? Our movers and packers in Abu Dhabi handle moves inside the city, with separate pages for house movers in Abu Dhabi, villa movers in Abu Dhabi and furniture movers in Abu Dhabi.

Building rules

What each city asks for before the truck arrives

The paperwork is different at each end. Sort both sides a week ahead and move day is only lifting and driving.

Move-out permit or NOC from your tower or community management Service lift booked for the loading time Final water and electricity reading and bill Tenancy contract cancelled once the keys are returned Full moving out checklist for Abu Dhabi

Arriving in Dubai

Move-in permit from the building or community management, which most Dubai towers and gated communities require Tenancy contract registered with Ejari, or the title deed if you own DEWA account active so there is power and water on arrival Service lift slot and the hours moves are allowed

What we do

Send you the company documents your building asks for with the permit Time loading in Abu Dhabi so the truck reaches Dubai inside your slot Bring floor and lift protection where the building requires it Tell you a week ahead what is still missing
Ask your Dubai building one question firstWhich days and hours are moves allowed? Some buildings do not allow moves on certain days or after set hours, and that decides your moving date more than anything else.

Price

How an Abu Dhabi to Dubai move is priced

There is no flat rate for this route, because two homes of the same size can need very different trucks and time. You get one price in writing after we see the home.

Furniture is wrapped in blankets and stretch film, carried down in the booked lift and loaded so the heavy pieces ride low.

FAQ

Abu Dhabi to Dubai moving questions

Cost, timing and permits for a move between the two cities.

Have a moving date? Send both addresses and a video. We reply with one price for the whole move.

How much does it cost to move from Abu Dhabi to Dubai?

It depends on the volume of furniture, the floors and lifts at both buildings, how much has to be dismantled and where in Dubai you are going. Send photos or a short video and you get one price in writing that covers packing materials, dismantling and reassembly, transport and tolls.

How long does a move from Abu Dhabi to Dubai take?

The drive is around two hours for a loaded truck. A studio, 1 BHK or 2 BHK is usually packed, moved and set up in Dubai on the same day. Villas and larger homes often take a packing day followed by a moving day.

Do I need a permit to move into a building in Dubai?

Most Dubai towers and gated communities ask for a move-in permit from the building or community management before a truck is allowed in. You apply as the tenant or owner, and we send you the company documents the building asks for and arrive inside your approved slot.

Do you also move from Dubai to Abu Dhabi?

Yes. Our movers come to your Dubai home, pack and load, and deliver to any Abu Dhabi community, including Al Reem Island, Yas Island, Saadiyat Island, Khalifa City and Al Reef.

Can you move only a few pieces of furniture to Dubai?

Yes. A sofa set, a bed or a dining table can go to Dubai without a full move. The price comes from a photo of the pieces and the two addresses.

Can you store my furniture between the two homes?

Yes, through our storage partners. If your Dubai keys come after your Abu Dhabi handover, we collect, arrange the storage and deliver when the new home is ready.

Is packing included in an Abu Dhabi to Dubai move?

Yes. Boxes, wrapping and blankets are part of the price, and our movers pack every room. If you would rather pack your own clothes and kitchen, tell us and we price the move that way.

Do you move to other emirates as well?

Yes. We move homes from Abu Dhabi to Sharjah, Ajman and the other emirates, and to Al Ain, on the same basis: one team, one price, confirmed from photos or a video.
