Packing for shipping and travel in Shawyah
Pack your furniture before shipping or a long trip, with stretch film and cardboard corner guards on the edges, so it stays protected on the road.
What sets Shawyah apart
If you are leaving Shawyah with your furniture or shipping it a long distance, our packing for shipping and travel covers each piece in stretch film and protects its corners with cardboard to keep it protected all the way. Call us or WhatsApp us with photos of the furniture.
Shawyah is a village in the wider Riyadh region where people live in scattered homes among farmland. Those leaving Shawyah for a city or further away take a whole home's furniture or part of it, and the journey is long and the road exposes pieces to rubbing and movement. Each piece is wrapped in stretch film and cardboard corners before it is loaded onto a dyna truck or pickup, so its edges do not knock against anything and it arrives as it left.
Shawyah is a village in the wider Riyadh region outside the city, near Rumah.
Furniture moved from a village to a distant location needs wrapping that protects every edge from rubbing and bumps on the road.

Questions about packing for shipping and travel
Why does furniture need stricter packing for shipping than for a local move?
A local move involves little handling and a short road. Shipping or long-distance travel means repeated loading and unloading, a long waiting period, and many hours of vibration on the road. That is why more layers of film and extra corner guards are used.
Should I dismantle large pieces before shipping or send them whole?
Large pieces like beds and wardrobes are better taken apart before shipping. They become smaller, easier to wrap and easier to fit inside the container or the truck. Send us photos and tell us the size of the largest piece, and we can confirm what needs to come apart.
How do I prepare my furniture before packing for shipping starts?
Empty all drawers and cabinets of personal items and put small things in sealed boxes. Photograph each large piece before it is taken apart, and put each piece's screws in a small bag taped to that piece. This preparation makes the work easier and the wrapping more thorough.
Which pieces need the most attention on a long journey?
Mirrors, glass panels and marble are most at risk when the road is long. They are wrapped in several layers of film and carried upright. Pieces with carved or painted edges need corner guards on every corner. Send us a photo of anything you are worried about and we will assess it.
Are dismantled parts wrapped with the piece or packed separately?
It is best if the parts of each piece stay with it: put the screws and fittings in a sealed bag and tie it to the piece itself, and write the piece's name on the bag. Photograph the piece before it is taken apart so you have a reference when you put it back together at the other end.
When is the right time to get in touch about packing for shipping?
The earlier the better, especially when there is a fixed shipping date to work around. Send a WhatsApp message with photos of your furniture, tell us how many pieces you have and the size of the largest one, and we will come back with a quote based on what you describe.
We need to wrap a single room of furniture for travel from Shawyah, do you do that?
Yes, we wrap a single room or a whole home in stretch film and cardboard corners. Send photos on WhatsApp or call us, and we will give you a quote after you tell us how much you have.
Do I need to take my furniture apart before you wrap it for shipping from Shawyah?
That depends on the type of furniture, the distance and the route. Send us photos on WhatsApp and we will tell you what needs to come apart and what does not.
