Packing for shipping and travel in Shubra

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 Shubra apart

When you leave Shubra or ship your furniture to a new home, everything needs protection from movement and impact. Our packing for shipping and travel wraps your furniture in stretch film and protects the corners with cardboard before it leaves. Call or WhatsApp us.

Shubra is an established residential district in Riyadh where residents live in apartment blocks and varied villas. Those leaving Shubra or receiving furniture from elsewhere find that good wrapping prevents surface scratches and corner damage during loading, unloading and transport. Stretch film clings around each piece, and cardboard protects any protruding edges and corners.

Packing for shipping requires tighter wrapping than storage because furniture moves along 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.

Should I take apart my sofa before packing it for shipping?

Tell us the condition and location of your furniture, and we disassemble, transport and reassemble if needed. Each piece is wrapped before moving and corners are protected with cardboard.

How much wrapping does furniture from Shubra need?

The amount of wrapping depends on how many pieces you have, their size and where they are shipped. Call us and send furniture photos on WhatsApp so we can give you a quote.
