Shipping company from Dammam to Jordan: how the shipment travels

Dammam sits on the Arabian Gulf coast in the far east of the Kingdom, while Jordan lies to the northwest, so the road between them is one of the longer overland routes in the regional network. The truck does not head west to Riyadh, as many people assume. It takes the northeastern road to Hafar Al Batin, then the northern highway that runs parallel to the border through Al Jouf and Sakaka, and on to Al Qurayyat, where the Al Haditha crossing is located. This route shortens the distance, avoids the capital’s traffic, and brings the shipment to the Jordanian border in about three days from loading.

Before the truck leaves our Dammam warehouse, the export data has already been submitted through the Fasah platform, so the shipment does not wait at Al Haditha for paperwork that could have been prepared in advance. After leaving the Saudi side, the truck enters the Al Omari border centre, where Jordan Customs carries out inspection and clearance, or refers the shipment to an inland customs centre when needed. It then continues along the eastern desert highway towards Al Azraq, Zarqa and Amman.

Al Haditha and Al Omari: why this crossing?

There are two pairs of crossings between Saudi Arabia and Jordan, and many websites mix them up. The pair that matters to Eastern Province customers is Al Haditha on the Saudi side and Al Omari on the Jordanian side, which serves shipments from the centre, east and north: Riyadh, Qassim, Hail, Al Jouf, Dammam and Al Ahsa. The other pair is Halat Ammar on the Saudi side and Al Mudawwara on the Jordanian side, which serves Tabuk, Madinah, Jeddah and Makkah and is the natural road to Aqaba. A Dammam shipment therefore goes through Al Haditha and Al Omari; sending it west to Tabuk only makes sense if the destination is Aqaba and that works out cheaper. Knowing this difference precisely means customers never pay for extra distance because of a wrong crossing.

Dammam customers do not have to wait for a truck to fill from their city alone. Boxes, rooms and cars join a shared load gathered from the Eastern Province and Al Ahsa heading north, so each customer pays only for their share of the space. Companies in the Second Industrial City or near King Abdulaziz Port with a full load get a dedicated dyna or trailer that leaves straight from their warehouse door with no consolidation stops.

Why Eastern Province customers choose Al Saif

The Eastern Province has its own character: Jordanian engineers and technicians working for oil and petrochemical companies in Dhahran, Jubail and Ras Tanura; doctors and teachers in Dammam and Al Khobar; and families who lived for years in Al Faisaliyah, Ash Shati, Al Nakheel and Al Rayyan in Dammam, or Al Aqrabiyah, Al Rakah, Al Thuqbah and the Golden Belt in Al Khobar, and have now decided to return to Amman or Irbid. Each of them has a different shipment: a full home, a few personal belongings, a car, or commercial goods for a supply company. So we assign each type its own team, tools and route.

We collect your documents, submit the export data, follow the inspection at the crossing, and deliver to the consignee in Jordan at the address you specify, with one coordinator answering your questions throughout. Because the journey from the east is relatively long, we pay close attention to securing the load inside the truck and packing it to withstand four to six days of road and heat.

Shipping prices from Dammam to Jordan

We use the same starting prices in every Saudi city, so the table below is the starting point for customers in Dammam and Al Khobar just as it is for Riyadh or Jeddah. However, the distance from the Eastern Province to Amman is among the longest, and distance raises the final price; the itemised quote you receive after the survey confirms the price line by line before loading.

Item Starts from
Parcel, 1–5 kg SAR 75
Clothes box, about 20 kg SAR 85
Personal goods, per kg SAR 9.5
One room with dismantling, packing and assembly SAR 1,050
2-room apartment SAR 3,300
Villa or large apartment SAR 5,200
Sedan on a multi-car carrier SAR 1,300
SUV SAR 1,990
Enclosed carrier SAR 2,300
Shared pallet SAR 560
Commercial goods, per 100 kg SAR 850
Dedicated 6 m dyna SAR 3,300
15 m trailer SAR 6,100
20 ft sea container to Aqaba SAR 5,600
Air freight, per kg SAR 46

What sets the final price of a Dammam shipment?

The price is not a single figure; it is built from several elements. The volume or weight comes before everything else: furniture is measured by rooms and pieces, cargo by weight or number of pallets, and parcels by the kilo. Then the type of service: do you want full dismantling, packing and assembly, or loading only for goods that are already packed? Then the pickup location: an apartment in a tower on the Al Khobar Corniche needs the service lift booked, a villa in a Dhahran compound needs an entry permit, and a house in Safwa or Al Nairiyah adds pickup distance. The delivery address in Jordan also counts, since a home in Abdoun or Khalda differs from a village in Ajloun or Karak, and so does your choice between a shared load and a dedicated truck. For air freight, the charge is based on actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher, where volumetric weight = L × W × H ÷ 6000.

How to save on shipping from the Eastern Province

  • Choose shared road freight if you are not in a hurry; it is the cheapest way to move boxes and furniture over a distance like this.
  • Sell or donate old heavy furniture in Dammam before shipping, because space is what you pay for.
  • Pack small items into boxes of a uniform size so they stack tightly.
  • Do not ship inexpensive appliances that are easy to buy in Amman; moving them can cost nearly as much as they are worth.
  • Prepare the documents before loading day so the truck does not wait an extra day.

Furniture moving from Dammam to Jordan

Moving a home from Dammam to Jordan is a journey of more than 1,700 kilometres, with desert roads, high summer heat, and handling at the crossings, so packing is what decides whether the furniture arrives as it left. Work starts with a survey in person or by video, where we count the rooms and pieces, decide what needs dismantling and what only needs wrapping, and suggest what is not worth shipping. We then set the loading day. The team arrives with double-wall boxes, foam, blankets, mattress covers and heavy-duty plastic, dismantles and numbers the pieces, wraps each one appropriately, and loads the truck with heavy items at the bottom and fragile ones on top, with securing straps between rows.

Bedrooms and majlis seating

Beds are dismantled into panels and wrapped in blankets, screws go into numbered bags taped to the piece itself, and wardrobes are emptied, their doors removed, and their mirrors wrapped in foam and stood upright. Mattresses go into sealed plastic covers that protect them from dust along the desert road. Sofas and Arabic majlis seating are wrapped in plastic and then blankets, cushions go into separate clean bags, and every box is labelled with the room it belongs to in the new home.

Kitchens and IKEA kitchens

Many apartments in Dammam and Al Khobar have IKEA kitchens or custom aluminium and wood kitchens. Both are dismantled unit by unit, with the upper and lower cabinets numbered and the kitchen photographed before dismantling so reassembly is easier. IKEA kitchens are taken apart following their manual, and the small parts are kept in labelled bags, since reassembling them in Jordan needs every screw and hinge. Marble or granite worktops are protected with wooden boards so they do not crack. If the kitchen in your Amman home has different dimensions, we tell you before shipping what can be fitted as it is and what will need adjustment there.

Appliances and air conditioners

The fridge is emptied, unplugged and dried a day ahead, the washing machine drum is locked with transit bolts, and TVs go into dedicated boxes or are wrapped in foam and corner guards. Split and window air conditioners are removed by a technician, the gas is pumped down into the outdoor unit, the pipes are sealed, and the units are boxed. We advise Eastern Province customers to think about whether shipping air conditioners is worthwhile, since the climate in Amman and Irbid is different and some families move only their newer units.

Antiques and office furniture

Antiques, handmade rugs, paintings and chandeliers are packed in wooden crates when needed, and insurance can be added for valuable items on request. Office furniture, such as staff desks, filing cabinets, chairs and meeting tables for a company relocating a branch, is numbered by room and department and set up in the new Amman office in the same order.

In Jordan: delivery and assembly

After clearance, the truck heads to the address, where the team carries the pieces into the rooms by their numbers, reassembles beds, wardrobes and the kitchen on request, and removes empty boxes and packing materials. Delivery is to the door, whether the home is a multi-storey building in Tla’ Al Ali, a villa in Dabouq or a family house in Zarqa or Irbid.

Returning home to Jordan and the personal-effects exemption

A large share of our Eastern Province customers are Jordanians who have finished long years of work in oil companies, hospitals and schools and decided to return home for good. They usually move a whole home with its furniture and appliances, and sometimes a car. Jordan Customs grants returning expatriates exemptions or facilities on personal effects and used furniture according to the regulations in force at the time of shipping, with conditions relating to the length of residence abroad, the nature of the goods and whether they are used. Because these conditions are set by Jordan Customs and may change, we advise you to confirm them with Jordan Customs before shipping, and we help you prepare the contents list and the documents usually requested in this case.

It helps to separate used furniture from newly bought appliances in the contents list, since each may be treated differently, and to keep a copy of your iqama and end-of-service certificate in case they are requested to prove your period of residence in the Kingdom.

Commercial cargo from Dammam to Jordan

Dammam is a major industrial and commercial hub, sending plastics, chemicals, building materials, spare parts, industrial equipment and food products to Jordan. We ship commercial cargo by weight or by pallet as part loads, or on a dedicated 6 m dyna or 15 m trailer. These shipments need a commercial registration, commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and a health certificate for food, with all procedures according to the regulations in force at the time of shipping.

Full load or part load?

If your goods are a few pallets, a part load is more economical: a shared pallet starts from SAR 560 and commercial goods start from SAR 850 per 100 kg. If they fill a truck or close to it, or are tied to a delivery date for a customer in Zarqa or Sahab industrial area, a dedicated 6 m dyna starts from SAR 3,300 and a 15 m trailer from SAR 6,100, travelling straight from your warehouse to your customer’s with no intermediate handling.

Parcels, bags and e-commerce orders

If your shipment is small, such as a bag of clothes for a student in Irbid, gifts for family in Amman or a box of personal items, a 1–5 kg parcel starts from SAR 75, a clothes box of about 20 kg from SAR 85, and personal goods from SAR 9.5 per kg. We also serve Eastern Province online stores selling to customers in Jordan, such as perfume, abaya, electronics and coffee shops, with regular consolidated shipments delivered to recipients after arrival.

Prohibited items and packing

We do not ship flammables, gas cylinders, loose batteries, medicines without a prescription, or plants and seeds without a permit. Empty the fridge and freezer of food, keep liquids away from clothes, and drain the fuel from small equipment such as lawn mowers. If you are unsure about an item, ask us before packing, because one prohibited item can hold up the whole shipment at the crossing inspection.

  • Double-wall boxes for dishes, glass and books.
  • Blankets and heavy-duty plastic for sofas and wood.
  • Foam and corner guards for mirrors, screens and paintings.
  • Numbered bags for screws and small parts.
  • Sealed covers for mattresses to keep out dust.

Car shipping from Dammam to Jordan

Cars travel by road on carriers from Dammam or Al Khobar via Hafar Al Batin, Al Jouf and Al Qurayyat to Al Haditha and then Al Omari. A sedan on a multi-car carrier starts from SAR 1,300, an SUV from SAR 1,990, and an enclosed carrier for new or luxury cars from SAR 2,300. The car is inspected and photographed from every side at pickup, the mileage and fuel level are recorded, and it is strapped onto the carrier.

Car shipping documents

  • Vehicle registration (istimara).
  • Owner’s ID.
  • Export plates or an export certificate.
  • A bank letter if the car is financed.
  • No unpaid traffic fines on the car.

Importing the car into Jordan

A car entering Jordan is subject to Jordanian import rules, including conditions on vehicle age, customs duties and taxes. These are set by Jordan Customs and change from time to time, so we ask every customer to confirm with Jordan Customs that their car meets the conditions before shipping, so the car does not reach Al Omari only to be refused. If the car does not qualify, it is often more economical to sell it in Dammam and buy one in Amman.

Steps to ship your car

You contact us with the car type and pickup date; we review the export papers with you and check that there are no outstanding fines; we collect the car from your home or the Dammam collection point, inspect and photograph it, load it onto the carrier, cross Al Haditha and Al Omari, and hand it to you or your consignee in Jordan once procedures are complete according to the regulations in force at the time of shipping.

Air freight from Dammam to Amman and Aqaba

For urgent shipments we fly from King Fahd International Airport in Dammam to Queen Alia International Airport in Amman in 1–3 days, or to King Hussein International Airport in Aqaba when the destination is southern Jordan. Prices start from SAR 46 per kg on actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher, where volumetric weight = L × W × H ÷ 6000. Air freight suits documents, electronics, urgent spare parts for factories and commercial samples. Furniture and cars are far more economical by road, because the volumetric weight of a sofa or wardrobe multiplies the cost of flying.

Commercial containers to Aqaba port

Sea freight is for commercial containers only. A Dammam trader can ship a container from King Abdulaziz Port on a shipping line, but the sea route from the Gulf to Aqaba goes around the Arabian Peninsula, so many goods are trucked to Jeddah and shipped from Jeddah Islamic Port across the Red Sea to Aqaba port. A 20 ft container starts from SAR 5,600 and suits factories and suppliers who export regularly. Household furniture and cars go by road, since the Al Haditha route is shorter, cheaper and involves less handling.

Road, air or sea from Dammam?

Mode Time Suits Starts from
Shared road 4–6 days Boxes, furniture and pallets SAR 560 per pallet
Dedicated truck As scheduled Whole homes and commercial loads SAR 3,300 per dyna
Air 1–3 days Urgent, light items SAR 46 per kg
Sea Longer than road Commercial containers to Aqaba SAR 5,600 per 20 ft container

The takeaway for Dammam customers: road is the natural choice for furniture, cars and ordinary goods, air for urgent light items, and sea for regular commercial containers.

Customs, crossings and documents

Saudi export procedures are completed through the Fasah platform before the truck reaches Al Haditha, and Jordan Customs handles import clearance at the Al Omari border centre or at an inland customs centre. Documents vary by shipment type:

Furniture documents

  • National ID or iqama.
  • Passport.
  • Contents list.
  • Fasah authorisation.
  • Jordanian consignee details: national number, mobile and address.

Commercial cargo documents

  • Commercial registration.
  • Commercial invoice and packing list.
  • Certificate of origin.
  • Health certificate for food.

Jordanian cities we deliver to

We deliver door to door in every governorate of Jordan:

  • Amman: Abdoun, Khalda, Tla’ Al Ali, Jabal Amman, Marka, Sweifieh, Dabouq, Jubeiha, Tabarbour, Abu Nseir.
  • Zarqa: New Zarqa, Russeifa, Hashemiyya; reached on about the same day as Amman, since it lies on the road from Al Omari.
  • The north: Irbid, Mafraq, Jerash and Ajloun, adding about half a day to a day after Amman.
  • The centre: Salt and Madaba.
  • The south: Karak, Ma’an and Aqaba.

Distance and time to Amman

From Distance to Amman Road time
Dammam and Al Khobar about 1,700 km 4–6 days

Riyadh about 1,450 km 3–5 days
Qassim about 1,150 km 2–4 days
Jeddah about 1,450 km 3–5 days

Jubail, Qatif and Ras Tanura are close to Dammam, so their timing is much the same, with only a few extra hours for pickup.

Shipment tracking

One coordinator keeps you updated at each stage: departure from Dammam, arrival in Al Jouf, crossing at Al Haditha, completion of clearance at Al Omari, and the delivery time at your home. You receive loading photos and a shipment number so you can ask about it at any time.

Storage before or after shipping

If your Al Khobar lease ends before your travel date, or your Amman home is not ready yet, we provide temporary storage with furniture wrapped and organised in a covered warehouse, then ship it on the date you choose.

Shipping from Jordan to Dammam

We run the reverse route too: from Amman, Zarqa and Irbid to Dammam, Al Khobar and Jubail via Al Omari and Al Haditha, for families and new employees arriving to work in the Eastern Province, and for traders importing Jordanian products such as licensed pharmaceuticals, food products and packaging materials, with the same dismantling, packing, clearance and assembly services.

When is a good time to ship?

The mild months from autumn to spring suit appliances and wooden furniture, as summer heat on the northern highway is high. In winter, temperatures in Amman can drop sharply and it rains, so we take care to cover the load well during unloading. Demand rises before the summer holidays and the end of the school year, when families return, so book enough days ahead.
