How much do movers and packers cost in Dubai?
Home moves in Dubai typically start from around AED 299 for a studio and rise with home size, floor/lift access, distance between the two addresses, and whether you need full packing. Because moving prices depend on volume and access, Servia gives you an exact fixed quote after a quick free pre-move survey (on-site or by video) — no hidden charges on the day. All prices include 5% VAT.
Do you provide packing materials?
Yes. Our crews bring boxes, bubble wrap, furniture blankets, stretch wrap and tape as standard. We can do full professional packing of your whole home, or just pack the fragile and bulky items while you handle the rest — your choice, and it's reflected in the quote.
Do you move offices and businesses too?
Yes — Servia handles office and shop relocations across the UAE: IT and workstation packing, filing and document boxes, server and equipment handling, furniture dismantle/reassembly, and out-of-hours or weekend moves to avoid downtime. We survey the site first and give a fixed quote.
Do you dismantle and reassemble furniture?
Yes. Our movers dismantle beds, wardrobes, dining tables and modular furniture before the move and reassemble them in your new home as part of the service. Specialist items like pianos, safes and gym equipment are handled by our specialist team as an add-on.
Is my furniture protected during the move?
Every item is wrapped and padded before it leaves the house, and loaded by a trained crew. Servia offers careful-handling cover — in the rare event something is damaged, message us within 24 hours of the move and we will make it right. Ask about full transit insurance for high-value moves during your survey.
Which areas do you cover for moving?
Servia covers all seven UAE emirates. Moves within Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman are usually same-week and often same-day; moves to or from Abu Dhabi and the northern emirates (RAK, UAQ, Fujairah) are scheduled with a confirmed slot. Inter-emirate moves (e.g. Dubai to Abu Dhabi) are fully supported.
How far in advance should I book my move?
For weekends and month-end (the busiest moving days in the UAE) book 3–5 days ahead to lock your preferred slot. Mid-week and smaller moves can often be arranged same-day or next-day. Share your date with Servia and we'll confirm availability.
How do I get an accurate moving quote?
Tell Servia your current address, new address, home size (studio / 1BR / 2BR / villa) and preferred date. We arrange a free pre-move survey — on-site or a quick video walkthrough on WhatsApp — then send one fixed, all-in quote. You only pay after you accept it.
How much does it cost to move a 1, 2 or 3 bedroom apartment in Dubai?
As a rough guide, a studio move in Dubai typically starts from around AED 299, a 1-bedroom apartment from about AED 500–900, a 2-bedroom from about AED 800–1,500, and a 3-bedroom apartment or small villa from about AED 1,500–3,500. Larger villas are quoted individually. These are typical estimates only — the exact figure depends on how much you're moving, floor and lift access at both ends, the distance between addresses and whether you want full packing. Servia gives you one fixed, all-in price (5% VAT included) after a free pre-move survey.
How long does a house move take in Dubai?
A studio or 1-bedroom move is usually done in 3–5 hours, a 2-bedroom in around 4–6 hours, and a 3-bedroom apartment or villa in 6–8 hours or a full day. Full professional packing the day before speeds up moving day. The exact timing is confirmed at your survey based on volume, access and distance.
Do you offer cheap or affordable movers in Dubai?
Yes — Servia offers competitively priced, affordable moving with no compromise on care. Because you get a fixed quote after a free survey, you never overpay for volume you don't have, and there are no hidden charges on the day. You can also keep costs down by doing partial packing yourself (we pack only the fragile and bulky items) or by booking mid-week rather than at month-end. Ask for the most cost-effective option for your move.
Can you move me between Dubai and Abu Dhabi or other emirates?
Yes. Inter-emirate moves are fully supported — Dubai to Abu Dhabi, Dubai to Sharjah, Sharjah to Ajman and every other combination across the seven emirates. The crew packs, loads, transports and reassembles at the new address; longer inter-emirate distances are simply factored into your fixed quote at the survey.
Do you handle international or overseas moves from Dubai?
Yes — Servia arranges international relocations from the UAE by air or sea freight, including export packing, crating for fragile and high-value items, documentation and customs coordination. International moves are always quoted after a survey because they depend on destination, volume and shipping method. Share your destination country and move date to start.
Do I need to pay a deposit and how does payment work?
You only confirm and pay once you've accepted your fixed quote after the free survey — there are no vague deposits taken before you know the price. Payment is made securely and the quote you sign is the price you pay, with 5% VAT included and no surprise charges on moving day.
Can you move on weekends or at short notice?
Yes. Weekend and month-end slots (the busiest moving days in the UAE) are available but fill fast, so book 3–5 days ahead to lock your preferred time. Mid-week and smaller moves can often be arranged same-day or next-day. Send Servia your date on WhatsApp and we'll confirm the earliest slot.
