The UK's London to Dubai removal specialists

The London to Dubai relocation corridor is one of the busiest international removal routes in the world. Thousands of British families, professionals and businesses relocate to the UAE every year, drawn by the business environment, tax advantages, world-class infrastructure, lifestyle and year-round sunshine that Dubai offers. Relokates has built specialist expertise on this route over years of managing UK to UAE relocations and is one of the few UK removal companies that genuinely specialises in this corridor rather than treating international moves as an occasional add-on to a domestic removal service.

Our Dubai service is truly end-to-end. We begin with a detailed pre-move consultation to understand your timeline, your volume, your specific items and any particular customs or regulatory considerations. We then coordinate the complete move: professional packing at your UK property, customs documentation preparation, secure specialist shipping to Dubai, and delivery and placement at your new UAE address. You have a single point of contact throughout the entire process.

What our London to Dubai service includes

  • Pre-move consultation: A detailed discussion of your move covering timeline, volume, shipping options, customs requirements, prohibited items and documentation checklist. We cover everything you need to know before a single box is packed.
  • Professional export packing: All items packed using export-grade materials designed for the rigours of international shipping: double-walled boxes, specialist fragile item packing, custom crating for artwork, antiques and specialist items.
  • Customs documentation: Full preparation and management of UAE customs import documentation including detailed packing inventories, valued item declarations and all supporting paperwork required for a compliant UAE import.
  • Sea freight or air freight: We offer both sea and air freight options depending on your timeline and budget. Sea freight in a dedicated 20 or 40-foot container is the most cost-effective option for full household moves. Shared container options are available for smaller volumes. Air freight is faster but significantly more expensive.
  • Port handling and UAE customs clearance: We coordinate with our established UAE partner network to manage your shipment through Dubai port and customs clearance at the UAE end.
  • Final delivery in Dubai: Delivery to your Dubai address with unpacking and placement services available.

Moving from across the UK to Dubai

While we are based in London and the South East, our Dubai removal service is available to customers relocating from anywhere in the UK. We can arrange collection from any UK address and coordinate transport to our designated shipping point for your UAE-bound shipment. We serve customers moving to Dubai from London, Essex, Kent, West Sussex and all other UK regions.
