Get free quotes from movers in Dubai

What you will pay for your moving service depends on the service level you require. Service quality and pricing for moving services show a fair amount of variation in Dubai.

Premium moving services are delivered by FIDI accredited moving companies. FIDI is an international organization that certifies moving companies based on a 200 point quality check list. The moving company would also be affiliated with an insurance company, meaning you would be able to get insurance for a particularly expensive item being moved. For a Premium move within Dubai, prices are usually in these ranges:

• Studio apartment: AED 1200-1400
• 1 BR apartment: AED 1500-1700
• 2 BR apartment: AED 2500-3000

Standard moving services are delivered by moving companies that meet important quality aspects such as packing your belongings using quality packing material and transporting them using covered trucks (to avoid damage from sun, dust and the occassional rain). For a Standard move within Dubai, prices are usually in these ranges:

• Studio apartment: AED 1000-1200
• 1 BR apartment: AED 1200-1400
• 2 BR apartment: AED 1800-2000

We do have Budget moving partners as partners for customers specifically looking for very cost efficient moves. Our customers may also request quotes from several moving companies to compare prices and service levels

Prices above are indicative and may vary a bit depending on the particular move. For bigger moves an onsite survey is usually required to correctly price the moving service.

Yes. Part of the cost of delivering a moving service is related to the truck transporting your goods. If you move within the same building you should expect a somewhat lower price. Please note that moving between buildings that are close to each other typically is not cheaper, as the moving company still needs to reserve the truck for the day of the move.

For bigger moves such as villas and big apartments, we recommend that you start looking for a moving company 2-4 weeks before your move. That will leave enough time for our moving partners to survey your home, discuss the details of your requirements with you and provide you with a competitive quote.

For smaller moves such as apartments up to 3 bedrooms, we recommend that you contact us 1-3 weeks in advance unless you have something in your home that would require special care (think a big aquarium or piano).

We are often able to help our customers at short notice, in some cases even with same day requests. In those cases, options may be limited. To avoid stress, let us know in advance!

In many cases, we are able to help our customers who need to move at short notice. That said, same day moving is dependent on availability and there are no guarantees. To inquire about moving services at short notice, please call our team to discuss your move over the phone (600 587 009).

After completing our online form explaining what moving service you are looking for, we will send your information to licensed and professional companies asking for a quote. Within 24 hours, you will receive at least three quotes from selected companies. You can then compare the different quotes and customer reviews, and hire the company of your choice.

For complex requests, the ServiceMarket team will call you first to understand your request, budget and specific requirements a bit better. We then collect your personalized quotes from up to 5 companies, and send them to you.

No. Our service is free to all our customers. Once you have received your personalized quotes, you have the freedom and flexibility to select a service provider that best suits your needs and purchase their services when you need it.

You can expect to receive quotes from around 3-5 companies

You can keep track of your quotes by logging in and checking out “My Quotes”.

You can pay the service provider directly after they’ve delivered the service to you.

There is no such thing as an expectation of a “standard tip” for moving services in Dubai. Some of our customers tip and some do not. In either case, you should expect a good service.

When customers wish to tip the moving crew they do so because they believe the service provided was of a high quality. In those cases, tips are usually within 5-10% of the cost of the move, and given to the team lead to distribute to the team at the end of the move.
