Can you park a shipping container in Al Khalidiya?

Generally, no. The streets in Al Khalidiya (like Zayed the First St) are too busy for a 20ft or 40ft container to park legally. For international moves, our partners use 'shuttle trucks' to collect your goods and transport them to the warehouse for container loading.

Do you handle international moves from Abu Dhabi?

Yes. We connect you with FIDI/FAIM accredited international movers. They handle 'Export Packing' (bubble-wrapping furniture), Abu Dhabi customs clearance, and sea/air freight to the UK, Europe, USA, Canada, and beyond.

What happens if the mover gets a parking fine?

If you hire a licensed mover from our network, they are responsible for their own legal parking (Mawaqif). They factor these fees into their operations. Avoid freelancers who may ask you to pay their fines or block traffic illegally.

Do I need a move permit in Al Khalidiya?

Yes, for most managed buildings. Towers like Shiny Towers or Landmark Tower require a Move-In/Out Request. You must present your Tawtheeq contract and the mover's trade license to security 24-48 hours in advance.

Can you ship internationally from Al Khalidiya?

Yes. However, parking a large 20ft or 40ft shipping container directly on busy streets like Zayed the First St is often illegal or impossible. International movers solve this by using shuttle trucks: they pack and load your items into smaller vans at your apartment, transport them to their warehouse, and then load the shipping container there for export.

The Downtown Abu Dhabi Protocol

City center moves require precision. We follow a strict process to avoid fines.

1. Tawtheeq Check

Ensuring your tenancy contract is ready for building security clearance.

2. Mawaqif Plan

Identifying legal loading zones or paid parking bays for the moving truck.

3. Export Wrap

For international moves, specialized bubble wrapping for long-haul sea freight.

4. Common Areas

Protecting older elevators and lobby marble with heavy-duty padding.

Why Khalidiya Moves Go Wrong

Mawaqif fines for illegal truck parking
Building security stopping work (No permit)
Truck stuck in narrow back-streets behind Khalidiya Mall
International containers blocked by traffic police

We solve this: Our partners use shuttle vans and local knowledge to park legally.
