The drive from Abu Dhabi city to Al Ain takes roughly one and a half to two hours on the E22, so a house move between the two is never a quick job. We treat it as a single, continuous trip: your belongings leave one front door and arrive at the other without being parked overnight, moved to a second truck or passed to a different team.
Al Ain’s housing adds its own demands. The city is low-rise and green, and many families live in large villas with a majlis, a maid’s room and plenty of outdoor furniture. Summer temperatures inland climb higher than on the coast, which is why our crews begin loading soon after sunrise and keep screens and delicate items out of the afternoon heat.

From the centre to the edges of the city, every district has a different mix of housing. Here is what to expect when we move you in each.
Flats and family villas
Clustered around Al Jimi Mall, with Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium a few minutes away. Because buildings and villas sit street by street here, our team confirms where the truck can pull in at both ends before the day.
Flats up to 3 bed, villas up to 7 bed
Home to Qasr Al Muwaiji and the busy Al Karama Centre. Rush-hour queues near the shopping centre are common, so we time arrival and loading to sit either side of the peak.
Large standalone villas
Quiet residential streets with plots big enough for pools and courtyards, and villas reaching ten bedrooms. A home this size usually calls for a second truck, which the survey will flag early.
Villas of 3 to 7 bedrooms, plus flats
Next to Al Ain Zoo and the UAE University campus. Villas here often include a majlis and staff quarters, and both are packed alongside the main house rather than left for a second trip.
Villas and mid-size flats
Around 12 km north of the centre, close to Hili Mall and the archaeological park. Its position near the Dubai road makes it a natural starting point for moves heading out of the emirate.
The wider Al Ain region
Al Foah, Al Sarooj, Al Maqam, Al Faqa, Al Hayer, Al Shwaib, Al Qua’a, Al Wagan, Mezyad, Nahil, Sweihan and Remah are all reachable. Give us the location and we’ll map the route and travel time.

Abu Dhabi to Al Ain or the reverse, planned as one trip along the E22 so nothing waits overnight.
Big Al Ain homes moved together with the majlis, staff rooms, pool furniture and yard items.
Offices, clinics and shops shifted outside trading hours so customers aren’t turned away.
Apartments in Al Jimi, Al Muwaiji and the centre, with parking and building access sorted beforehand.
Our team boxes up each room, then takes apart and refits beds, wardrobes and dining tables at the destination.
If one property is ready before the other, we hold your belongings so you don’t pay for two separate moves.
Need just a loading team or some cartons? We can arrange those on their own too.
Moving a one-bedroom flat between Abu Dhabi and Al Ain usually comes to somewhere between AED 1,500 and AED 2,500, while villas range from about AED 4,000 to AED 9,500. Fuel, a full working day for the crew and the size of your home are what push the figure up compared with a move inside one city.
