Al Fares Al Dhahabi is a furniture moving company in Riyadh that moves villas, flats and offices between Riyadh districts, from Al Malqa and Al Narjis in the north to Al Shifa and Al Aziziyah in the south, and from Riyadh to Al Kharj, Qassim, Dammam and Jeddah. We start with a survey, then the crew takes apart bedrooms, wardrobes and kitchens, wraps majlis seating, rugs and appliances, and loads them into a closed-box dyna or lorry that shields the furniture from Riyadh’s heat and dust.
Moving a one-room flat inside Riyadh starts from SAR 460, and we give you the final price after seeing the furniture or photos of it, before moving day. To book, call or WhatsApp us on 0553923364.
What our furniture moving company in Riyadh does
Most homes in Riyadh are villas and duplexes with large majlis rooms, spacious kitchens and annexes, which makes moves here bigger than in most cities. Our services cover all of it:
- Villa and duplex moves: with several vehicles and a large crew in one day
- Flat moves: in apartment buildings and residential compounds
- Dismantling: bedrooms, wardrobes, kitchens and bookcases
- Majlis and rug packing: thick film, rugs rolled and tied
- Appliances and air conditioners: ACs removed by a technician, fridges and washers prepared
- Rest house moves: outdoor seating, air conditioners and fridges
- Office and company moves: after hours and on holidays
- Moves outside Riyadh: to Al Kharj, Qassim, Dammam, Jeddah and every city
Furniture moving prices in Riyadh

- Distance: north to south can exceed 40 km
- Floors and lift: internal stairs in villas, lifts in buildings
- Dismantling: kitchens and large wardrobes take the longest
- Air conditioners: how many units need a technician
- Season: month-end and holidays are in higher demand
Dyna furniture moving in Riyadh and vehicle sizes
Riyadh is a wide city with long distances, so the right vehicle saves you trips. For villas we use a lorry or two dynas together so the move finishes in a day, and for flats a closed-box dyna, all closed because dust in Riyadh can reach the furniture at any time of year.
| Vehicle | Suits | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Wanet | a single room, one or two appliances and cartons | the cheapest, for short trips |
| Dabab | one or two rooms or a small flat | gets into narrow streets |
| Closed-box dyna | a full flat of two to four rooms | protects furniture from sun and dust |
| Lorry or large truck | villas, large houses and offices | one trip instead of several |

Taking furniture apart before the move
Villa kitchens in Riyadh are large with many cabinets, and bedroom wardrobes often span the whole wall. The carpenter starts with doors and drawers, numbers each panel by room, keeps screws and hinges in bags tied to the panel itself, and photographs the piece before taking it apart so you have a picture of it whole.
- Bedrooms: the bed, wardrobe and dresser are taken apart and every piece is labelled with its room
- Large wardrobes: doors and shelves come off first, and the panels are wrapped in blankets
- Kitchens: upper and lower cabinets are taken down and their hinges kept in bags
- Dining tables and desks: legs come off and tops are wrapped in heavy cardboard
- Screws and small parts: in clear bags tied to the piece itself so nothing goes missing
Packing furniture in Riyadh with the right material for each piece
Arabic majlis seating and rugs suffer most from dust in Riyadh, so we wrap the seating in thick clear film, roll rugs, tie them and cover them, wrap wood in blankets and then film, and put appliances in padded cartons. Every carton is marked with the room it goes to.
| Piece | Packing material |
|---|---|
| Sofas and majlis seating | thick clear film or blankets, depending on the fabric |
| Wood and panels | moving blankets, then stretch film |
| Glass, mirrors and glass tables | heavy cardboard and corner guards |
| Dishes and ornaments | packing paper and cartons with dividers |
| Screens | cartons padded with foam or bubble film |
| Mattresses | sealed plastic bags |
| Clothes | wardrobe cartons or large bags |
Moving appliances and air conditioners
- Fridge: switched off and emptied a day before, moved upright, and switched on only hours after arrival
- Washing machine: water disconnected and drained, and the drum secured before loading
- Air conditioners: removed by a technician without bending the pipes, with the outdoor unit wrapped
- Screens: in their original box or a padded carton, upright all the way
- Ovens and gas: the gas cylinder is disconnected and moved separately, closed
Moving heavy and delicate pieces
Riyadh villas hold many heavy pieces: safes, marble tables, large chandeliers in the majlis and heavy wooden bookcases. These pieces get extra workers and their own handling:
- Safes: on a special dolly with extra workers depending on the weight
- Pianos: fully wrapped and carried with a cross strap, never tilted
- Marble tables: the top is separated from the base and moved standing on its edge
- Chandeliers: taken down after the power is cut, with each crystal piece wrapped on its own
- Aquariums and plants: tanks are emptied, and plants go in last at the front of the box
Cranes for high floors
Towers and tall buildings in Olaya, Al Sahafa and Al Malqa have lifts that can’t take large sofas or one-piece wardrobes. We use an external crane to lift pieces from the balcony straight to the vehicle, after coordinating the spot and time with building management.
Moving villas in Riyadh
A villa move in Riyadh is split into stages: the annex and roof first, then upstairs bedrooms, then the majlis and kitchen, and the courtyard and outdoor seating last. Each stage goes in its own vehicle, and at the new home each stage is unloaded into its place so pieces don’t get mixed up.
Moving flats and apartment buildings in Riyadh
In apartment buildings and residential compounds we confirm the lift booking and the compound entry permit the day before, and set where the dyna will park near the entrance. If the building has no lift we add workers so the stairs don’t drag on.
Office and shop moves in Riyadh
Office and company moves in Riyadh are planned with the office manager: we number each department’s cartons, wrap computers and printers, take apart desks and cabinets, work after hours or over the weekend, and lay out the new site to plan so work starts without delay.
Student rooms, single rooms and single items
Residents of single and student rooms in Al Malaz, Olaya and Al Sulaimaniyah need a quick move for a few belongings, so we send a small vehicle with a worker, and we also move a single piece such as a washer or sofa from the showroom to your home.
Who works in your home on moving day?
- The move supervisor: takes the list of pieces, assigns the work and follows it to the last piece
- The carpenter: takes apart bedrooms, wardrobes and kitchens and numbers the pieces
- The appliance technician: removes air conditioners and prepares the fridge and washer for the road
- The packers: wrap every piece in the material that suits it
- The loaders: load in order: heavy first, delicate last
- The driver: knows the city’s roads and picks the right time to set off
Protecting your home during the move
- Floors: we lay cardboard or covers along the route from the door to the truck
- Walls and doors: corner guards on the edges that large pieces pass
- The lift: we line it with blankets and keep to the building’s booking times
- Stairs: large pieces are carried by at least two people with shoulder straps

Heat and dust in Riyadh: how we protect your furniture
Riyadh summers are hot and dry, and dust storms arrive suddenly. So in summer we work from dawn, always use closed boxes, cover pieces while they wait on the pavement, and never leave electronics, candles or leather in a hot box for long hours. If a dust storm hits on moving day we pause loading until it settles rather than let the dust into your furniture.
The best time to move in Riyadh
The best time to move in Riyadh is early morning in summer and any time in winter. Month-end and the start of the summer holiday are the busiest times, so book a week or more ahead, especially for villas.

How a move with Al Fares Al Dhahabi works in Riyadh
- WhatsApp us on 0553923364 with photos of the rooms and appliances, your current and new district, and the floor and lift.
- We give you the price and the date, or visit for a survey if the move is large.
- On moving day the crew arrives on time and starts dismantling and packing.
- We load in order and write the inventory with you.
- We drive over and set every piece down in its room at the new home.
- You check the pieces against the list before the crew leaves.
A checklist before moving day
- A week before: get rid of what you don’t need, and book the lift in both buildings
- Three days before: pack clothes and books into cartons and write the room on each
- The day before: empty and switch off the fridge, drain the washer and charge your phone
- Moving day: keep papers, gold and medicines with you in a separate bag
- At the new home: show the supervisor where each room is before unloading starts
Mistakes that push up the cost of a move
- Not sending photos of the annex and roof: so the load turns out bigger than the vehicle
- Leaving AC removal to the last day: so the dyna waits for the technician
- Not emptying the kitchen before dismantling: which adds hours
- Moving the rest house with the home on the same day: without telling us beforehand
- Not arranging the compound permit: so the vehicle is stopped at the gate
How to save on the price of a move
- Sell furniture you don’t need: before the move instead of paying to move it
- Pack cartons yourself: clothes, books and small items
- Book in winter or mid-week: if your date is flexible
- Plan the home and rest house together: at one price
- Have the new home ready before the date: so you don’t pay for waiting time
The inventory: your paper on moving day
Before loading we write down with you the number of cartons, the number of large pieces and the condition of every valuable item, and we both sign it; at unloading we go through the same list. Any remark about a piece is written in front of both sides, which protects you and us.
