Relocating? Here’s how to make your Dubai home move feel like a fresh beginning, not a stressful chore.
Moving to a new home is more than just changing your address; it’s the start of something new. New surroundings, new routines, new energy. But in a city like Dubai, where everything moves at lightning speed, the process of relocating can quickly spiral into stress, exhaustion, and delays.
Whether you’re shifting apartments within the city or moving in from another emirate, a little foresight and planning go a long way. Here are five simple, practical tips to help you breeze through your Dubai home move, with Logisty doing the heavy lifting.
1. Start with the Permits and Paperwork
In Dubai, logistics don’t just involve packing boxes; they involve building permissions, move-in slots, and landlord or agent approvals. Many residential communities require a move-in or move-out permit, and some restrict access to service lifts during certain hours or days of the week.
The earlier you confirm these requirements with your landlord, property agent, or building manager, the better. Once you have that information, simply pass it on to us. Logisty will handle the coordination and scheduling so that you don’t have to go back and forth on phone calls or emails.
2. Update Your Address Before You Forget
When you’re in the middle of a move, it’s easy to overlook the little things like updating your address on delivery apps or with your internet provider. But a few quick updates can save you from missed deliveries or disrupted services later.
Think of everything that comes to your door: groceries, bottled water, newspaper subscriptions, bank correspondence. Notify them early. And don’t forget your telecom provider — Etisalat or Du — if you’re relocating your broadband or landline. This is a one-time task, and we’ll even remind you in our pre-move checklist so nothing slips through the cracks.
3. Choose a Moving Partner, Not Just a Mover
You can hire someone to lift boxes. Or you can choose a team that takes care of everything, including your peace of mind.
Logisty isn’t just about transport. We offer professional-grade packing, careful handling of fragile items, disconnection and reinstallation of appliances, curtain rod and frame setup, and even handyman services. Whether you need your fridge wired up or your bookshelf realigned — we’ve got it covered.
And the best part? You deal with one trusted partner from start to finish, not five different vendors. That’s what makes the difference between a move that drains you and a move that delights you.
4. Keep Your Essentials Close
No matter how well the day is planned, you’ll want a few items within reach, especially during the first few hours in your new home.
We always recommend carrying your IDs, passports, important documents, and any sensitive items (like jewellery or medication) with you. It’s also a good idea to pack a small overnight bag with basic toiletries, chargers, a change of clothes, and snacks. Everything else from your wardrobe to your washing machine, we’ll handle and unpack at your destination.
5. Let Your New Home Be Move-In Ready
There’s nothing like walking into a clean, functional space at the end of moving day. With Logisty’s Premium plan, we ensure that your new home feels like home the moment you arrive.
Our team takes care of assembling furniture, connecting white goods, fixing curtain rods, and setting up your space just the way you like it. Need help arranging pest control or painting touch-ups before the move? We can assist with that, too, through our trusted partners.
You won’t be left staring at a pile of boxes. You’ll be sipping chai on your couch while your TV is already mounted.
