Removal companies

I am not aware about furniture shipment, but you can buy furniture within Dubai for cheaper rates. If you prefer to buy from mall, then it would be expensive. For example, an American double queen sized bed would cost you around 2000-3000 AED from IKEA or home centre. But if you buy from Naif area (they mostly have used furniture), then you will easily get within 800-1000 AED. I just recently bought two single bed (excellent condition w/o mattress) each 100 AED for me and my friend. We also bought queen sized bed with matress, spring coiled mattress, dresser and 2 side drawer for 900 AED. I would advise you to buy from Naif market or you can buy from other people who are selling their stuff (google: used furniture for sale in dubai). Also if you prefer to buy from Naif area, I would advise you to go with some Hindi/Urdu speaking friend so you can make a cheap deal.

Thanks for the advice, I have something in mind.. A friend of mine is still in Dubai and she might give me a hand with the translations, but to be honest, I would rather avoid second hand furniture. However, it is a good advice and will bear it in mind!

Thanks a lot,
