What sets shipping from Jeddah apart:
- Jeddah is the only major city with a close, direct sea option to Beirut.
- Land is faster; sea suits very large volumes.
- Special packing for paintings, glass and chandeliers.
- We also collect from Makkah, Taif and Madinah.
Land or sea from Jeddah to Lebanon?
| Option | Route | Approx. time | When we choose it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Land | Jeddah → Tabuk → Al Haditha → Jordan → Syria → Masnaa | 6 – 9 working days | Most furniture and goods shipments |
| Sea | Jeddah Islamic Port → Suez Canal → Beirut port | 12 – 20 days | Very large homes, or when land is unavailable |
| Air | King Abdulaziz Airport → Beirut airport | 2 – 4 days | Parcels, documents and urgent items |
The road distance from Jeddah to Al Haditha is long, close to 1,500 kilometres, but it is still faster than the sea most of the time. The sea helps when the shipment is very large, or when you want your belongings to stay in one sealed container from Jeddah to Beirut.

Packing paintings, glass and valuables
Jeddah homes hold paintings, chandeliers, mirrors and china, which are the most affected by vibration on the long land route. So we handle them with special care:

- Large paintings in wooden crates made to measure.
- Mirrors with corner protection and heavy board on both faces.
- Chandeliers have their crystal pieces removed and wrapped one by one.
- China is wrapped in paper and stood upright in double-wall cartons.
- Glass tables get a wooden frame protecting the edges.
- Because of Jeddah’s humidity we add moisture-absorbing sachets to cartons, especially for sea freight.
Loading in Jeddah
For land freight we load the truck at your home or our warehouse and strap the load row by row. For sea freight the container comes to your door, is closed and sealed, then goes to the port. Either way we write a numbered inventory for every carton.

Car shipping from Jeddah to Lebanon
By land the car travels inside an enclosed car carrier, which may take two cars on two levels, covered and strapped. By sea it ships inside a closed container to Beirut port. Either way we photograph it from every side before closing.

The papers from Jeddah: a valid registration, no fines or liens, an export request through Absher or the traffic department with the plates handed in, copies of the owner’s passport and iqama, and the transit papers for the land route. Before booking we check Lebanon’s rules and duties for imported cars.
Air freight from Jeddah to Lebanon
From King Abdulaziz International Airport to Rafic Hariri International Airport within two to four working days, for documents, gifts, small devices and urgent items. It’s charged on the greater of actual and volumetric weight.

Tips before shipping from Jeddah to Lebanon

Delivery inside Lebanon
After clearance at Masnaa, the truck heads down to Beirut or straight to your area: Achrafieh, Hamra and Verdun in Beirut, Metn, Baabda and Aley in Mount Lebanon, Keserwan, Jounieh and Byblos north of Beirut, Tripoli and Akkar in the north, Sidon, Tyre and Nabatieh in the south, and Zahle and Baalbek in the Bekaa. We agree on a time with you, the crew carries everything into your home, and reassembles the furniture if that is part of the agreement.
Insuring your shipment to Lebanon
The land route to Lebanon is long and crosses three borders, so we offer cargo insurance as a percentage of the value you declare, and recommend it for cars, expensive appliances and furniture that is hard to replace. We photograph your belongings during packing so their condition is documented before loading.
How to choose a shipping company to Lebanon

- Truck type: closed and sealed, not open.
