Packing furniture and serving sets

Makkah homes have full guest lounges: chandeliers, coffee and tea sets, glass tables and majlis seating. These are the pieces most prone to breaking, so we start with them:

• Chandeliers are dismantled and placed in padded wooden crates.
• Serving sets are wrapped piece by piece in paper, then placed in double-wall cartons.
• Glass tables get a wooden frame protecting the glass edges.
• Majlis seating and sofas in plastic, then blankets.
• Wardrobes and beds dismantled, with screws numbered.
• Appliances with brands and serial numbers on the inventory.

Loading in Makkah

In apartment buildings we bring belongings down by lift or by external hoist depending on the building, and load them into a closed truck. At standalone houses the truck stops at the door. The load is then built in layers in the container, which is closed, sealed and taken to Jeddah port.

Car shipping from Makkah to Turkey

We prepare the car, fit a protective cover, load it into the container, secure it with chocks and straps and photograph it before closing. One car goes in a 20 ft container, and with furniture in a 40 ft.

But bringing cars into Turkey is restricted, with temporary import usually tied to residence and the car’s age, and permanent import carrying high taxes, so we review your case before booking. The papers from Makkah: a valid registration, no fines or liens, an export request through Absher or the traffic department with the plates handed in, and copies of your passport, iqama and driving licence.

Air freight from Makkah to Turkey

We collect parcels in Makkah and take them to King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah, then on to Istanbul Airport, arriving within three to five working days. It suits documents, clothes, gifts and the things you need as soon as you arrive.

It’s charged on the greater of actual and volumetric weight, so check box sizes before packing.

Shipping goods from Makkah to Turkey

Makkah traders send rugs, perfumes, incense, prayer beads, clothing and gifts to Turkey. We stack the goods on pallets, prepare the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and ship them in a shared or private container. Large quantities of perfume have shipping requirements, so ask us before packing.

Papers and Turkish customs

• Copies of the sender’s and receiver’s passports and iqamas.
• A detailed inventory in English or Turkish with appliance brands and serial numbers.
• Proof of your status in Turkey: residence permit, tapu or rental contract, or a return certificate for Turkish citizens.
• A commercial invoice for goods, and car export papers if any.
• An exact match between the names on the passport and the bill of lading, and a shipment date coordinated with your entry into Turkey.

Prohibited and restricted items

• Flammable materials, gas cylinders, and large quantities of alcohol-based perfume by air.
• Weapons and anything resembling them.
• Fresh food, meat and plants.
• New appliances in their original cartons may be treated as dutiable goods.

Tips for Makkah customers

• Avoid loading dates during Hajj and peak seasons, when movement in Makkah is harder.
• Tell us the flat’s floor and whether there’s a lift before the date.
• Measure your home’s entrances in Turkey before shipping large pieces.
• Keep important papers with you.

From the Turkish port to your door

The shipment doesn’t end at the quay. After clearance we arrange road transport to your city, whether that’s either side of Istanbul, Bursa, Sapanca or Kocaeli in the Marmara region, Ankara or Konya in central Anatolia, Antalya, Adana or Mersin in the south, Trabzon or Samsun on the Black Sea, or İzmir in the west. We agree on an arrival time with you, carry everything up to your floor and reassemble what we dismantled if you ask.

Do you need cargo insurance?

If your shipment includes a car, electronics, antiques or furniture of special value, insurance is worth its small cost. It is calculated as a percentage of the declared value and covers the shipment by land and sea. We record the condition of your items with photos during packing, so there’s no dispute later about how they looked before shipping.

How to choose a shipping company to Turkey

1. Ask about the arrival port: a company that knows its work picks the port from your address rather than sending everything to one port.
2. Ask for a price breakdown: does it include packing, transport to the port, clearance and delivery?
3. Check the inventory: Turkish customs want brands and serial numbers, and a weak inventory delays release.
4. Ask who packs: the company’s own crew or casual labour.
5. Follow-up: will you know the sailing and arrival dates, and who to call in Turkey?
