Packing & Unpacking Services in Dubai, Sharjah & Ajman - SAMA Movers

Packing & Unpacking Services in Dubai, Sharjah & Ajman

Professional packing and unpacking with quality materials — full or partial homes from AED 499, female packers available on request

About Our Packing & Unpacking Services

Good packing is the difference between arriving with intact glassware and unboxing a cardboard tragedy. SAMA Movers offers standalone packing and unpacking — with or without our moving service — starting from AED 499 for a studio, using materials rated for hot-climate transit and long-haul shipping. A trained packing crew arrives with all materials, shrink wraps furniture on site, and labels every carton by room and fragility. You can book packing-only (we leave sealed cartons for your own truck), packing + transport, full pack-move-unpack, or unpacking on its own.

What We Pack

Everything a home holds — no item is too ordinary and no drawer too chaotic. Our house packing services cover apartments, townhouses and full villas alike. The usual list:

  • Clothes and wardrobes: wardrobe boxes with hanger rails keep suits, abayas and dresses on their hangers — no re-ironing — while folded clothes travel in cartons labelled by room
  • Shoes, bags and accessories: wrapped in pairs, boxed upright and labelled, so the right pair surfaces on day one
  • Kitchen and utensils: dish-pack cartons with cell dividers, individually wrapped stemware, sealed cutlery drawers, labelled spice boxes and padded cartons for small appliances
  • Fragile and high-value items: custom wooden crates for artwork, chandeliers, marble tops, TVs, mirrors and glass shelves
  • Personal items and the random stuff: books, toys, documents, ornaments, cables — the “drawer of everything” every home has. We sort, wrap and label it; nothing gets tipped loose into a box

Premium materials throughout: double-walled cartons, acid-free tissue, 5-ply bubble wrap, stretch film, foam corners and reinforced tape — plus colour-coded room labels, numbered cartons and an itemised inventory sheet for your records.

Unpacking Services

Our unpackers do the reverse of everything above: cartons opened, contents placed where you direct, wardrobes re-hung, the kitchen back in its cupboards, and furniture we disassembled reassembled — and the empty boxes, wrap and offcuts leave with the crew, so you are living in the new home rather than camping in it. Unpacking books as part of a move or completely on its own, including when you moved yourself or another company delivered the boxes. Most clients tell us professional unpacking saves them one to two days of work.

Female Packers and Unpackers

Many households prefer a woman handling wardrobes, personal effects and bedroom packing. Female packers and unpackers are available on request for clothes, personal items and dressing rooms — at the packing stage in your old home, the unpacking stage in the new one, or both. Mention it when you book so we schedule the right crew; a day or two of notice is usually enough.

Why Choose SAMA Movers for Professional Packing

Materials sold at a corner shop aren't engineered for UAE conditions — heat, humidity swings and long lift queues crush under-spec cartons fast. We use double-walled boxes and reinforced tape because a box that sits in a 45°C service lift for two hours will collapse if it's flimsy. Our packers are trained on international standards for fragile, electronics and art handling, which also makes our export-packing suitable if you later need to ship overseas. Unlike a day-labour packing crew, our team logs every carton on an inventory sheet you sign off, so every carton is accounted for at both ends of the move. For clients in villa communities with extensive kitchenware, we dedicate a crew specifically to china, crystal and appliances.

Because we are movers and packers under one roof — a packing company with its own trucks and crews — the team that packs your home can also load, transport and unpack it — one company, one inventory list, one accountable team from the first carton to the last empty box carried out.

Where We Pack

Our packing teams operate across the northern Emirates daily. In Dubai we regularly work in Palm Jumeirah, Emirates Hills, Arabian Ranches, Downtown, Dubai Marina, Business Bay, JBR, Al Barsha, JVC, JLT, Mirdif and Silicon Oasis. Sharjah coverage includes Al Zahia, Aljada, Masaar, Al Nahda, Al Majaz and Al Mamsha. Ajman service covers Al Mowaihat, Al Jurf, Al Nuaimiya and Ajman Corniche. Need only certain rooms packed (for example a kitchen and bedroom while you handle the rest)? That's a standard booking — see also apartment movers or our packing tips guide for a DIY checklist.

Buying Moving Boxes On Their Own

You do not have to book packing to get moving boxes and materials from us. Standard carton boxes are AED 10 each and wardrobe boxes with a hanging rail are AED 20, delivered to your door — delivery is quoted separately depending on your area. Bubble wrap, stretch film, masking tape, moving blankets and mattress covers can come on the same delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions About Packing & Unpacking Services

How much do packing services cost in Dubai? +
Professional packing services in Dubai start from AED 499 for a studio or 1-bedroom, AED 799 for a 2-bedroom, AED 1,199 for a 3-bedroom, and AED 1,499+ for villas. All materials (boxes, bubble wrap, tape, packing paper) are included. We also offer fragile-only packing from AED 299 if you want to pack most items yourself but need professional help with breakables.
What packing materials do professional movers use? +
SAMA Movers uses double-walled cardboard boxes (small, medium, large, and extra-large), bubble wrap in various thicknesses, acid-free packing paper, foam sheets, heavy-duty packing tape, stretch film, wardrobe boxes with hanging rails, dish cell dividers for glassware, and custom wooden crates for high-value or fragile items like mirrors and artwork.
Can I buy packing materials without booking a full packing service? +
Yes, we sell packing materials separately for DIY movers. Our moving box bundle (10 mixed-size boxes + tape + bubble wrap) starts from AED 149. Individual wardrobe boxes with a hanging rail are AED 20 each, and standard cartons are AED 10. We deliver materials to your door across Dubai, Sharjah, and Ajman — order at least 2 days before your move so we can be sure of stock.
How do you pack fragile items like glassware and artwork? +
Each glass item is individually wrapped in packing paper, then bubble wrap, and placed upright in cell-divided boxes. Plates are wrapped individually and stacked vertically (not flat) with foam dividers. Artwork and mirrors get corner protectors, bubble wrap, cardboard sandwiching, and custom wooden crating for pieces over 1 metre. Electronics are packed with anti-static wrap and original boxes when available.
How long does professional packing take? +
Packing time depends on home size: a studio takes 2-3 hours, a 1-bedroom takes 3-4 hours, a 2-bedroom takes 4-6 hours, and a 3-bedroom takes 6-8 hours. Kitchen packing is the most time-intensive — a well-stocked 3-bedroom kitchen alone can take 3-4 hours. We recommend booking packing for the day before your move to split the work across two days.
Do you offer unpacking services at the new home? +
Yes, our unpacking service includes removing items from boxes, placing them where you direct, assembling any items that were disassembled, and removing all packing materials and empty boxes from your new home. Unpacking is available as an add-on to any moving package or as a standalone service — even if another company handled the move. Most clients find that professional unpacking saves them 1-2 days of work.
Do you have female packers for clothes and personal items? +
Yes. Female packers and unpackers are available on request for wardrobes, clothes, personal effects and dressing rooms — at the packing stage, the unpacking stage, or both. Let us know when you book; a day or two of notice usually ensures the right crew is scheduled.
What items can you pack? +
Everything a home holds: clothes and shoes, kitchen utensils and crockery, books, toys, electronics, artwork and the miscellaneous household items every home collects. Clothes travel in wardrobe boxes on their hangers, shoes are wrapped in pairs, kitchens go into dish-pack cartons with dividers, and fragile pieces get custom crates. There is no minimum — packing a single kitchen or one wardrobe is a normal booking.
Can I book packing only, without moving? +
Yes — packing-only is a standard booking. The crew packs, seals and labels every carton and leaves you an itemised inventory list; you arrange transport however you like, or none at all. The reverse also works: we can unpack boxes we didn't pack, including after a DIY move.
