Tower moves
High-floor apartments emptied without you booking a single lift slot.
No driving to a unit. No van hire. No lifting.
Al Taawun is high-rise living facing the water, minutes from the Dubai border. We collect from your tower, lift booking and all, and store it in Dubai.
High-floor apartments emptied without you booking a single lift slot.
Moving closer to work in Dubai, with a gap between the two tenancies.
Going from two bedrooms to one and keeping the furniture that will not fit.
Al Taawun is one of the most vertical parts of Sharjah — a dense run of towers along the corniche facing Khalid Lagoon, with Al Taawun Mall in the middle and the Dubai border a few minutes west. The flats are mostly one and two-bedroom, occupied heavily by working couples and young families, and turnover is high because so many residents are on the Dubai commute and move as soon as their circumstances change.
Because it is almost entirely towers, every collection here is a logistics job: service lift booked, loading bay reserved, move permission filed with building management. We do that part. What residents notice most is that the alternative — hiring a van, then queueing for the same lift yourself, twice, on a Friday — is where the real cost of a cheap storage unit hides.
Our crew comes to your Al Taawun address, wraps what is going and loads it.
Billed on the floor space your items occupy, not on a unit size you have to fill.
Multi-angle CCTV covers every corridor, entry point, loading area and storage zone.
Take back one box or everything, normally within 24–48 hours.
A call, a WhatsApp or the quote form. A rough list is enough for us to size it.
The crew arrives on the agreed date, wraps everything and loads the van.
Items go into the covered facility under camera, logged so they can be found again.
All of it or part of it, back at the address you choose, usually within 24–48 hours.
Charged on the space your things actually take up. Transport from Al Taawun is quoted separately and told to you up front rather than added afterwards.
Yes. Most Al Taawun towers restrict moves to set weekday hours and require the service lift to be padded and booked. Give us the building name and rules when you book and we schedule the crew to fit them.
It affects how long the job takes, and the transport quote reflects the real job rather than a flat rate. You are told the number before anything is booked — there is no surcharge appearing afterwards because the lift was slow.
We operate a warehouse in Sharjah, so what we collect in the emirate is stored in the emirate rather than driven to Dubai and back. Your belongings are stored at our Sharjah facility. What we run on top of that is the collection service: our crew comes to your address, wraps and loads, and takes everything to the facility.
It is quoted on the actual job — your address in Al Taawun, 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 12.65 AED per square foot per month, VAT included.
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 Sharjah. 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.
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 Sharjah.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Free quote, no survey fee, nothing booked until you agree both numbers — the storage and the transport. Monday–Sunday 8 AM–8 PM.
