Question 1

Do you have a storage facility in Ras Al Khaimah?

Accepted Answer

No. We operate the collection and delivery service in Ras Al Khaimah and store at our nearest facility — our warehouses are in Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman. If you specifically want a unit in Ras Al Khaimah that you can drive to and visit unannounced, a local yard suits you better and we would rather say so than sell you the wrong thing.

Question 2

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Storage is charged on the floor space your goods actually occupy — the same rate everywhere we operate. Transport is quoted separately on your address and how the access works, and both numbers are agreed before anything is booked.

Question 3

How long does retrieval take to a RAK address?

Accepted Answer

Longer than the 24 to 48 hours we quote inside Dubai, because of the drive. Tell us at booking if you expect to need things back regularly and we will be realistic about the timings rather than optimistic.

Question 4

Do you have a storage facility in Ras Al Khaimah, or is my stuff stored in Dubai?

Accepted Answer

Your things do not stay in Ras Al Khaimah. We operate the collection and delivery service here and store at our nearest facility. Your belongings are stored at Building 23, Warehouse 5, DIP-1, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. If you specifically want a unit in Ras Al Khaimah you can drive to, a local self-storage yard suits you better and we would rather say so now.

Question 5

How much does pickup from Ras Al Khaimah cost?

Accepted Answer

It is quoted on the actual job — your address in Ras Al Khaimah, how the access works (lift, stairs, parking) and how much there is to move. We do not price transport from a table, because a ground-floor flat with parking outside and a ninth floor with a booked service lift are not the same job. You get the transport figure and the storage figure before anything is booked, and the number you are given is the number you pay. Storage itself is charged only on the space your items use.

Question 6

How long does collection from Al Nakheel or Al Hamra take?

Accepted Answer

What decides it is access, not distance. A villa or ground-floor flat with somewhere to park is quick; a high floor in a tower where the service lift has to be booked and shared with other residents takes longer, and that is the single biggest variable in Ras Al Khaimah. When we quote we give you a time window for the day and the crew confirms on arrival. Packing loose items into boxes yourself beforehand is the one thing that reliably shortens it.

Question 7

I'm moving from Ras Al Khaimah to Dubai — can you hold my things between leases?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and it is the most common reason people here call us. We empty the property on the day you hand the keys back, hold everything for however long the gap runs, and deliver to the new address once you can receive it. Billing is monthly on the space used with no minimum term, so a twelve-day gap costs twelve days, not a month. If the handover slips again you simply tell us a new date. It works the same in reverse coming into Ras Al Khaimah.

Question 8

Can I visit my items? How much notice do you need?

Accepted Answer

Yes — access is arranged on request rather than by turning up, because your things are stored in a working warehouse rather than a unit you hold a key to. Tell us when you would like to come and we book a slot and have your items ready. 24/7 facility access available for existing customers on request. If you only need something back rather than to see it, delivery to your door is usually the easier answer and is normally arranged within 24–48 hours.

Question 9

What's the minimum storage period and is there a lock-in?

Accepted Answer

There is no minimum period and no lock-in. Storage is billed month to month on the floor space your items actually occupy, and you can end it whenever you like with no early-termination penalty. A fortnight is charged as a fortnight. There is equally no maximum — some customers store for years — and you can add to or take from what is stored without renegotiating anything.

Question 10

Do you store during Ras Al Khaimah villa or flat renovations?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and it is one of the steadier reasons we get called here. We can take the whole property or work room by room as the job moves through it, collecting in stages and delivering back the same way, so you are never paying to store more than you need to. Each collection is quoted before it happens. Tell us roughly how long the work is expected to run — and expect it to overrun, which costs you nothing extra because there is no fixed end date.

Question 11

Is my furniture insured while in storage?

Accepted Answer

Ask us for the current cover position in writing before you book, and tell us if you are storing anything high-value — art, antiques, instruments, specialist equipment — so it is addressed on your quote rather than assumed. What we can state plainly is how your things are kept: wrapped before they leave your property, stored off the floor inside a covered warehouse rather than a yard or a container, and logged on a signed inventory at collection so there is a written record of every item. Multi-angle CCTV covers every corridor, entry point, loading area and storage zone.

Question 12

Do you pack, or do I need to pack myself?

Accepted Answer

We wrap and load. Furniture is wrapped before it leaves the property, and our crew carries it and handles the lift booking and loading bay — you do not hire a van, carry anything, or negotiate with building management. What is worth doing yourself is boxing up small loose items beforehand: it makes the collection faster and cheaper, because you are billed on the space your things occupy and packed boxes stack where loose belongings do not.

Question 13

Can students at the American University of Ras Al Khaimah store over the summer?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and it is what the end of each term looks like here. Paying to hold a room over a summer you are not in the country for costs far more than storing what is in it. We collect from the residence at the end of term, hold the boxes over the break, and deliver back when the new year starts — to a different address if you have moved. There is no minimum term, so a three-month summer is charged as three months. Book the collection date early: end of term is the busiest fortnight of the year and slots go quickly.
