Shipping Company from Jeddah to Syria | 0561247112 Household Furniture & Car Shipping by Land and Sea

Alrahwan Golden ships from Jeddah to Syria by road through Jordan (Halat Ammar, then Jaber – Nasib) in 6 – 9 days from collection to delivery in Damascus, Homs and Aleppo. A complete single bedroom move starts from SAR 1,390, a two-bedroom apartment from SAR 3,900, a fridge or washing machine from SAR 550 and a standard carton from SAR 92, with air freight for urgent parcels in two to four days.

We collect from every district of Jeddah, Makkah, Taif, Rabigh and Madinah, and deliver to Damascus and its countryside, Homs, Hama, Aleppo, Latakia, Tartus, Daraa and As-Suwayda. To book: 0561247112.

The Jeddah to Syria route: distance, crossing and transit time

The distance from Jeddah to Damascus is about 1,700 km, roughly 18 hours of driving. The truck heads north via Madinah to Tabuk, then to the Halat Ammar crossing, facing the Jordanian Al-Mudawwara post, crosses Jordan in transit via Maan and Amman to the Jaber crossing, facing the Syrian Nasib post, and on to Damascus.

This western road is the shortest from the Hijaz to Syria, so Jeddah, Makkah and Madinah shipments leave directly without passing Riyadh, and Tabuk shipments join on the way.

Times start on the collection day and include routine border procedures.

What happens at the four crossings?

Halat Ammar and Nasib get busy in holiday and Eid seasons, so we file the Fasah export declaration before leaving Jeddah, prepare the Jordanian transit papers with the carrier and send the Syrian receiver details in advance to the broker at Nasib.

The trip day by day

Shipping prices from Jeddah to Syria

We price furniture by cubic metre because a truck fills by volume before weight. Prices include dismantling, packing, loading, transport, delivery and reassembly at destination. The price is confirmed after you send photos of the rooms or after a survey, and does not change after loading as long as the items match the list.

Household move prices by size

Insurance and destination government fees are separate items.

Single item prices

Single items carry a minimum invoice, so if you have more than five large pieces ask for the full-room price, which is usually better value.

Seven factors that set the bill

Furniture moving from Jeddah to Syria

Moving a home from Jeddah to Syria means crossing the whole Kingdom before the border, so packing gets double attention. The carpenter dismantles and numbers kitchens, wardrobes and beds, packers wrap each piece in layers suited to its material with extra protection against coastal humidity, heavy pieces go low in the truck with straps and separating boards, and straps are checked at the Tabuk stop.

Dismantling by carpenters

Large wardrobes, bedrooms and kitchens are dismantled by carpenters who know the assembly order, not just by movers. Every panel is numbered, and screws and hinges go into numbered bags tied to the piece itself, so the wardrobe goes back together in your new home exactly as it was, with no missing parts or new holes.

Packing guide by material

When is a wooden crate needed?

Standard packing is enough for most furniture, but marble tops, large mirrors, chandeliers, antiques and valuable equipment need a crate built to size, because pressure in the truck or vibration on the road can break them even when well wrapped. We identify these pieces during the survey and price their crates in advance.

Air conditioners and kitchens

A split AC is removed after the gas is pumped down into the outdoor unit, and the pipes are sealed against moisture; it is reinstalled at destination and recharged if needed. Kitchens are photographed before dismantling, cabinets are numbered right to left, and the new kitchen space is measured first, because custom kitchens may not fit without adjustment.

Areas we collect from in Jeddah

Every district of Jeddah: the north such as Obhur, Ash Shati, Al Mohammadiyah and An Naeem; the centre such as Ar Rawdah, As Safa and As Salamah; the south such as Al Hamdaniyah, As Samer and Al Ajwad; plus Makkah, Taif Rabigh and Madinah. Shipments are consolidated in Jeddah before departure.

Dedicated truck or shared load?

Homes above roughly 25 cubic metres are usually cheaper with a dedicated truck; a room, a few items or cartons are cheaper in a shared load that splits the road cost.

Car shipping from Jeddah to Syria

Cars are moved from Jeddah to Syria on enclosed carriers with full covers and wheel straps, arriving in 6 – 9 days. We document the car’s condition with photos and the odometer reading at collection, and the receiver signs the condition report on delivery.

• Price: a small car starts from SAR 3,240; the price varies by type, size and delivery city
• Documents: registration (istimara), owner’s ID, authorisation if shipped by someone else, and the export procedure
• Registration: according to current Syrian import decisions

See our Syria documents and customs guide for inspection and registration after arrival.

Cartons, gifts and dates

Clothes cartons, gifts and Madinah dates and Hijaz gifts travel in the shared load; a standard carton starts from SAR 92. Write the receiver’s name and Syrian number on every carton, keep liquids apart from clothes, and do not overfill cartons so they do not burst when stacked. Commercial quantities of dates need an invoice and a certificate of origin.

Electrical appliances

Syrian mains voltage is 220 V like the Kingdom, so household appliances work without adapters. TVs travel in double cartons, removable batteries are taken out, and new appliances in their boxes are listed separately because they are treated as goods.

Commercial shipping from Jeddah to Syria

We serve Jeddah traders with full or part loads to Damascus, Aleppo, Homs and the industrial zones, and arrange container sea freight from Jeddah Islamic Port to Latakia or Tartus. GCC-origin goods are treated under the GCC customs union rules with a certificate of origin; other goods are subject to the applicable customs duties, and they are subject to the Syrian customs tariff and the list of goods permitted for import. Documents: commercial invoice, commercial registration, certificate of origin, packing list and a Fasah export declaration.

We review the item list before loading, because a commercial truck held at Nasib over one item that needs prior approval is delayed in full and may incur waiting charges.

Air freight from Jeddah to Syria

Documents and urgent parcels fly from King Abdulaziz International Airport to Damascus International Airport in two to four days. For containers, Jeddah Islamic Port connects to Latakia and Tartus via the Suez Canal in 12 – 18 days, a good option for traders and large volumes.

Air freight is charged by actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher, so it suits small, relatively heavy parcels such as documents, permitted personal medicines and small devices, not furniture.

Documents required for shipping from Jeddah to Syria

1. Sender: national ID or iqama
2. Receiver: Syrian ID or passport and a Syrian phone number
3. Packing list: one clear line per carton and item
4. Value declaration: realistic, not understated
5. Export declaration: via the Fasah platform
6. Traders: invoice, commercial registration and certificate of origin

A vague description such as “household items” invites a full inspection, while a detailed list with carton numbers lets any random check finish in minutes. More in our Syria documents and customs guide.

What cannot be shipped to Syria

We go through the list with you before loading; details in our Syria documents and customs guide.

Steps to ship from Jeddah to Syria

1. Send photos: on WhatsApp 0561247112
2. Get the price: by volume and delivery city
3. Pick a date: for collection
4. Dismantling and packing: at your home
5. Departure: north via Madinah and Tabuk
6. Crossing: Halat Ammar, Jordan transit, then Nasib
7. Delivery: and reassembly in Syria

What happens when your shipment reaches Syria?

After release at Nasib the truck reaches Damascus in about an hour and a half, and shipments are distributed to the other governorates from there. The supervisor calls the receiver to set the time, the pieces are unloaded and placed in rooms by their numbers, the crew reassembles beds, wardrobes and the kitchen, belongings are checked in front of the receiver and the delivery report is signed.

Temporary storage

If your home in Syria is not ready yet, we store your belongings in a closed warehouse in Jeddah on contracts starting from one month, then ship them on the date you choose.

What you may pay in Syria besides the shipping price

• Syrian customs duties: on new appliances, goods and commercial quantities
• Transit fees: through Jordan, usually included in the price
• Waiting charges: if documents are delayed at any crossing
• Insurance: optional, as a percentage of value

Used personal furniture is usually treated as personal effects, and before booking we explain anything that may be due on your shipment so nothing comes as a surprise on arrival.

Jordan transit: what it means for your shipment

A shipment heading to Syria is not normally opened in Jordan: it is registered in transit on entry and the load is sealed, then crosses Jordan to the Jaber crossing, where seals are checked before exit to Nasib. So the packing list must match the load from the start, because any mismatch found at the first crossing delays the truck at every crossing after it.

We handle transit papers with the carrier and tell you the actual time at each crossing, so you need no procedure in Jordan.

Road or sea from Jeddah to Syria?

Road through Jordan suits furniture, cars and door-to-door shipments needing delivery within days, reaching Damascus in 6 – 9 days. Sea freight from Jeddah port to Latakia or Tartus takes 12 – 18 days and needs port clearance and inland transport to the address.

So we recommend sea for coastal residents shipping a full container without urgency, and road for everything else.

New appliances and goods: how Syrian customs treat them

Used furniture and personal belongings are usually treated as household effects, while new appliances in their boxes and repeated quantities of the same item are treated as goods, subject to the Syrian customs tariff and the list of goods permitted for import. So we list them separately with their invoices, keeping clearance at Nasib clear and quick.

Before shipping we review the list with you and tell you what needs an invoice or approval, and what is better bought in Syria than shipped.

How the cost is calculated

Start with the room volumes from the price table, add extra items and cartons, then any wooden crates. If the total exceeds the price of a dedicated truck, ask for one instead of the shared load.

The cheapest way to ship from Jeddah to Syria

• Shared load: leaves Jeddah directly via Tabuk
• Reduce volume: leave out old mattresses and worn particle-board furniture
• One shipment: instead of scattered batches
• Book early: before holidays and peak seasons
• Pack cartons yourself: for clothes and books

On a trip of about 1,700 km through four border posts, sorting before shipping has a bigger effect on the bill, so we advise shipping majlis sets, carpets, good wooden bedrooms and modern appliances, and replacing old mattresses and particle-board furniture in Syria.

Who our service suits

Five steps before the crew arrives

1. Sort your belongings: and set aside what cannot be shipped
2. Empty the fridge: and switch it off 6 hours earlier
3. Photograph the kitchen and appliances: before dismantling
4. Prepare receiver details: Syrian ID and phone number
5. Book the building permit: in Syria

Tips for your new home in Syria

• Electricity and water: transferred or opened with the housing contract and ID
• First-days carton: with essentials and tools
• Measurements: measure the kitchen and wardrobe spaces in the new home

E-commerce parcels and samples

For online stores and small businesses in Jeddah we ship parcels and samples to their customers in Syria in the shared road load, or by air for urgent orders. We collect from your warehouse, label every parcel with the receiver details and send you proof of delivery. Repeated quantities are treated as commercial goods with an invoice and certificate of origin.

How to choose the right shipping company

Price alone is not enough to judge a shipping company: a shipment held at the border or delivered broken costs more than any price difference. Before booking, check the following:

1. Commercial registration and licence: for international shipping and transport
2. Border experience: and filing the Fasah export declaration before departure
3. A clear price: stating what is included: dismantling, packing, reassembly and fees
4. A carpenter for dismantling and reassembly: not just movers
5. Optional insurance: as a percentage of the declared value
6. Tracking and updates: load photos and notices at the border and on arrival

Return shipping from Syria to Saudi Arabia

If you are moving back from Syria to Jeddah or any city in the Kingdom, we run the same trip in reverse: a photo survey, dismantling, packing and loading at your address there, then the crossing, delivery and reassembly at your home. Used personal furniture returning with its owner is usually treated as personal effects, provided the packing list is clear and matches the load.

Common mistakes that cost customers

• Incomplete receiver details: hold the shipment at Nasib
• Vague carton descriptions: invite a full inspection
• Understated value: can stop the shipment
• Prohibited items: such as gas and paints
• Building permit not ready: postpones delivery
• Skipping insurance: on valuable furniture

Shipment insurance

Optional insurance, priced as a percentage of the declared value, covers breakage, damage and loss in transit. We recommend it for valuable furniture and appliances, together with photos of your belongings before packing and noting any remark on the delivery report before signing.
