Chat on WhatsApp Contact us

Dubai and Sharjah are close, and many households move between them as leases end, jobs change or families grow. The distance is short, but the traffic between the two emirates can make a moving day longer than people expect.

SmileShift offers local moves in all seven emirates. This page covers how to plan a move between Dubai and Sharjah, in either direction.

Planning a Dubai to Sharjah move

Start with your dates. Your lease end date at one home and your move-in date at the other decide how tight the day will be.

Tell us your Dubai area and your Sharjah area, the type of home and its size, and which way you are moving.
Choose a free survey, by video call or in person.
Tell us about large, fragile or bulky items, and anything that has to be taken apart.
Check access at both buildings, then lock in the date with us.

Building access at both ends

Buildings and communities often have their own moving rules, which can include permits, booked lift times and set days or hours. Because rules differ from building to building, ask the management at both addresses what applies to you.

If your new building needs a permit or paperwork before you can move in, start that early, and tell us what time slot you have been given.

Ask about lift booking, reserved parking and loading areas.
Ask which days and hours moves are allowed.
Ask whether anything must be arranged in advance, such as a permit or a building contact.

Timing around Dubai and Sharjah traffic

Roads between Dubai and Sharjah are often busy, especially at weekday rush hours. If your building lets you choose, aim for a start time that avoids the peaks, and leave room in the day for the drive, unloading and checking the new home.

If you are moving out of Sharjah into Dubai, the same applies: tell us your slot and any hour limits at both buildings.

Free survey before the move

We offer a free survey, by video call or in person, so we can see your home and what you plan to move. Tell us your Sharjah or Dubai area and we will arrange it when we speak.
