The Road from Riyadh to Yanbu
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Distance | About 1,050 km |
| Route | Via Qassim, then Madinah, then west to the coast |
| Driving time | 10 to 12 hours |
| Stops | Rest stops in Qassim and Madinah |
| Arrival | Usually the morning after loading |
It’s a long way, so we set off in the evening, take breaks at the rest stops to check the load, and arrive in the morning, leaving a full day for unloading and reassembly.
Yanbu Industrial City: Royal Commission Housing
Many homes in Yanbu Industrial City are inside residential compounds run by the Royal Commission or by companies, and getting a truck in requires a permit or coordination with security. Tell us the name of your compound and we’ll send the truck and driver details in advance so we’re not left waiting at the gate.
Yanbu Al Bahr and the Humidity
Yanbu is a humid coastal city, so we protect wood and fabric with stretch film, put moisture absorbers in boxes of clothes and papers, and only remove the wrapping inside an air-conditioned home.
Furniture Moving Prices from Riyadh to Yanbu
| Size | Price |
|---|---|
| General move for a few items | From SAR 780 |
| Bedroom | From SAR 920 |
| Full home | From SAR 1,380 |
The final price depends on the volume, the type of truck, the services you need and your location in Yanbu.
What Changes the Price on This Route?
- The volume of furniture.
- A private truck or a shared one.
- Compounds that need an entry permit.
- Floors and lifts.
- Dismantling, reassembly and full packing.
Packing That Goes the Distance

A long road tests the packing before it tests the driver. Sofas and mattresses get stretch film and then a fabric cover; wardrobes are wrapped in moving blankets held with tape that leaves no marks; kitchenware is wrapped in paper inside divided double-walled boxes; and every box is labelled with its number and room. Inside the truck, heavy items go low and towards the front, light items on top, and glass well away from any pressure.
Because this is one of our longest routes, we check the straps twice along the way, not just once.
Loading in Riyadh
We arrange the load for a long journey: heavy items low and towards the front, appliances upright, gaps filled, and fragile pieces on top. We photograph the load before closing up.

| Private truck | Shared truck | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | A full home or villa | One room or a few items |
| Departure | The same day as loading | Once the truck is full |
| Cost | Higher | Lower |
How Long the Move from Riyadh to Yanbu Takes

| Stage | Approximate time |
|---|---|
| Dismantling, packing and loading | Half a day to a full day |
| On the road | 10 to 12 hours |
| Unloading and reassembly | Half a day to a full day |
| Total | Usually two days |
We call you when we set off and before we arrive, and let you know about any delay on the road.
What We Arrange with You Before Moving Day
We agree on the loading time in Riyadh and the arrival time, and ask about the floor, the lift and where the truck can park at both homes, as well as when you’ll get the keys to the new place. If someone in the other city is receiving the furniture on your behalf, we take their number and deal with them directly.
Moving Appliances and AC Units on a Long Road
Appliances are what get damaged most often on intercity moves, and the cause is usually poor preparation before loading. The fridge should be switched off at least six hours ahead, emptied and dried, then carried upright and strapped in, and it shouldn’t be switched on in the new home until it has been standing for a few hours. The washing machine is drained and its drum locked with the transit bolt if it has one. Split AC units are removed by a technician who pumps the gas back into the outdoor unit and seals the lines, and another technician installs them in the new city. TVs travel in their original boxes or in a reinforced carton, always upright.
Moving to Yanbu: What to Expect
Yanbu is really two cities. Yanbu Industrial City has organised residential compounds and wide streets, while Yanbu Al Bahr has old and new districts along the coast. In the first, what matters is coordinating with compound security; in the second, it’s arriving away from the midday heat and humidity. We sort out both before loading.
Pickup and Delivery Districts
| City | Districts we serve |
|---|---|
| Riyadh | Al Malqa, Al Yasmin, Al Narjis, Hittin, Al Sahafa, Al Olaya, Al Malaz, Al Rawdah, Al Naseem, Al Shifa |
| Yanbu | Yanbu Industrial City and its residential compounds, plus Yanbu Al Bahr districts such as Al Suraif, Al Jabriyah, Al Sumairi, Al Shati and Al Nakheel |
We also reach Yanbu Al Nakhl and the surrounding areas.
Delivery in Yanbu

We carry the furniture into its rooms and reassemble it, switch on the appliances with you once they’ve been standing for a few hours, and go through the inventory.
If Your New Home Isn’t Ready Yet
If handover of your Yanbu home is delayed, temporary storage keeps your furniture packed and numbered until you get the keys, then we deliver it and set it up.
How Do You Know Everything Arrived?
By the inventory. Every box has a number and a room, every large piece is on the loading list, and valuable items are photographed before they’re wrapped. When we unload, we count the boxes and check the pieces with you, and we don’t leave until you’ve seen for yourself.
Items That Need Extra Care
Large mirrors, paintings, ornaments and chandeliers need special materials and their own space in the truck. We place them at the top near the doors, away from any pressure, and photograph them before packing and after arrival.
Moving in the Other Direction
We also move from Yanbu to Riyadh the same way and at similar prices. If you have a move in both directions, such as clearing out a home in Yanbu and bringing part of it to Riyadh, we combine it into one trip wherever we can.
Mistakes We See Again and Again on Moves to Yanbu
- Not coordinating with compound security in advance.
- Unwrapping furniture in a home without air conditioning.
- Relying on light packing for a road of more than a thousand kilometres.
How the Move Works, Step by Step
- Request: you call or fill in the request form and send photos.
- Estimate: we work out the volume, the type of truck and the size of the crew.
- Agreement: an itemised price and dates for loading and arrival.
- Loading day: dismantling, packing, numbering, loading and photographing the load.
- Arrival day: unloading, reassembly and checking the inventory.
Before the Truck Arrives
- Finish packing small items into boxes.
- Leave the large pieces to us to dismantle and wrap.
- Unplug the appliances and dry them out.
- Keep a parking spot free for the truck near the entrance.
- Walk through the home room by room before leaving.
