Packing and moving furniture from a large villa in Al Murjan, north Jeddah

What makes villa moves in Al Murjan different

Al Murjan is a north Jeddah district close to the sea and to King Road. Residents describe it as one of the city's most upscale and quiet neighbourhoods, and it sits near landmarks most Jeddah residents know: the Yacht Club, the waterfront, the Jeddah Corniche Circuit that hosts Formula 1, Red Sea Mall and several modern hospitals and malls. Most homes are multi-storey villas, many with an annex, a garden and a pool.

That changes the nature of the job. A villa is not simply an apartment with more rooms. It is several floors, store rooms and outbuildings, heavy and expensive furniture, and items with no margin for error such as marble dining tables, crystal chandeliers, paintings and collectibles. So we do not start with the truck. We start with a list: what is on each floor, what moves, what is stored, sold or donated, and in which order furniture should enter the new home.

One advantage of the district is that its main streets are wide; residents mention Ahmed Ibn Taymiyyah Street at around 52 metres. Inner streets in front of villas, however, can fill up with residents' and visitors' cars, particularly in the evenings, at weekends and on event days along the waterfront.

The villa inventory: the step that saves half the day

We begin with a walk-through or a video call and write an inventory split by floor and room. Everything else depends on it: the number of trucks, movers and carpenters, the quantity of packing materials and the number of working days.

  • Ground floor: majlis and living rooms, dining tables, kitchen and large appliances.
  • Upper floors: bedrooms, wardrobes, children's rooms and home offices.
  • Roof and annex: staff quarters, rest-house furniture and items stored for years.
  • Garden and pool: outdoor seating, umbrellas, barbecue equipment and gym gear.

This is also the moment to let go of things you will not need. Every item that is not moved means less time, lower cost and a tidier new home.

Packing high-value pieces: each material needs its own method

ItemHow we protect it
Marble and granite tablesTop separated from the base and carried on edge inside a timber frame or between boards, with corner guards.
Crystal chandeliersHanging pieces removed and wrapped individually; the frame packed in a padded crate.
Large mirrors and artworkCorner protectors, bubble wrap and rigid board over the face, always carried upright.
Leather and designer sofasFabric cover first, then plastic, so plastic never sits directly on leather for hours.
Large timber wardrobesDoors and shelves removed, fittings bagged and labelled, polished faces wrapped in blankets.
Electronics and TVsDedicated cartons or padded crates, transported upright.

Dismantling and reassembly across several floors

Master bedrooms in villas are often large, made of heavy hardwood, and wardrobes may be fixed to the wall. Our carpenter dismantles in a set order: doors and drawers, then shelves, then the carcass. Each set of screws and hinges goes into a bag labelled with the item and room and is taped to the piece itself.

Villa staircases are usually wider than apartment stairwells, but some curve or spiral and certain pieces will not clear the turn. Then we either dismantle fully or lower the item from a balcony or roof opening with a furniture hoist, if the street in front of the villa has room for it. Our furniture hoist service explains when that is the right choice.

At the new home we reassemble in reverse: beds first so the family can sleep comfortably, then wardrobes, then the remaining rooms. Curtain rails can be refitted and chandeliers rehung if agreed in the quote.

Kitchens and large appliances

Villa kitchens are typically bigger and heavier than apartment kitchens, and many were made to measure. Before dismantling we ask whether it will be refitted at the new address with the same dimensions. If not, moving only the appliances and freestanding units may be smarter, leaving fitted cabinets for the owner or for a new custom kitchen.

Side-by-side fridges, dishwashers, built-in ovens and extra freezers in the annex all need proper disconnection, draining and securing of moving parts. We always transport fridges upright and ask clients to wait several hours before switching them on. Heavy gym equipment such as treadmills is dismantled following the manufacturer's guidance, with motors secured before loading.

When a two-phase move makes sense

  • The new home still has finishing work, a kitchen or air conditioning being installed.
  • The family wants bedrooms and kitchen first, with majlis furniture and extras later.
  • Some furniture is going into temporary storage because the new home is smaller.
  • The villa is very large and the destination allows limited working hours.

If you need storage between phases, see our furniture storage in Jeddah page, which includes climate-controlled options.

Moving day in Al Murjan: street and timing

We arrive early, position trucks so they do not block neighbours' gates, lay protection over marble floors and stairs, and cover door frames. Then we work in parallel: one team packs upstairs, another carries and loads, and the carpenter dismantles rooms in the agreed order.

Because the district is close to the waterfront and the Corniche Circuit, some days bring heavy traffic or temporary road closures during major events. We check the date before confirming and prefer weekday morning starts. If the destination is a gated compound with security, we arrange the entry permit in advance.

What drives the cost of a villa move

  • Floors, rooms and furniture volume: set the number of trucks, movers and days.
  • Specialist items: marble, chandeliers, art and collectibles need extra packing time.
  • Dismantling and reassembly: how many bedrooms, wardrobes and kitchens need a carpenter.
  • Hoist requirement: for items that cannot use the stairs.
  • Distance: moves within north Jeddah are shorter than moves to the south.
  • Storage or phased moves: each extra phase has its own cost.

Common villa moving scenarios

Large villa to a luxury apartment

Common for families whose children have moved out. The key question becomes what to take. We help sort items into move, store, sell or donate, and measure the apartment so nothing is moved that will not fit. Our villa to apartment downsizing page covers this case.

Villa to a newer villa in north Jeddah

Similar volume, and the family wants to be settled quickly. We label every item with its room in the new house and bring a simple floor plan, so unloading happens once.

Vacating a rented villa before handover

Timing and condition matter most. We protect floors and walls while clearing, and leave the house empty with packing waste removed.

Mistakes villa owners make

  • No inventory: too few trucks and a working day that runs into the night.
  • Leaving the annex and roof to last: they always hold more than expected.
  • Not measuring the new home: a twenty-seat dining table may not fit the new room.
  • Mixing boxes between floors: label floor and room, not just room.
  • Pool chemicals and fuel in the truck: these must not travel with furniture.

Where Al Murjan residents usually move

Most moves from Al Murjan head to nearby northern districts such as Al Basateen, South Obhur and North Obhur, or towards more central districts such as Al Mohammadiyah and Al Naseem. Short northern trips can be repeated with the same truck; longer ones are split across several trucks so reassembly can start early the same day.
