Expats moving to Saudi Arabia will likely have many questions, and finding the answers to them can be tricky and time consuming. It's tough to go it alone, but expats can have all their moving needs, including shipping and transporting, met with the help of a relocation firm. It may be an expensive route to take, but it is far less stressful. Removals companies, on the other hand, offer a more limited range of services that tend to focus on just the transportation of goods.

Relocation businesses provide companies and individuals with a full suite of services, including but not limited to:

  • Pre-departure preparation
  • Neighbourhood orientation
  • Home-finding services
  • Lease negotiation and utility hook-ups
  • School selection, visits and registration assistance

Here is a list of some top relocation businesses to consider when moving to Saudi Arabia.
