Free Home Delivery Across the UAE on Packing Material Orders

Free home delivery means you can order packing materials online through Al Mas and have them delivered to your door anywhere in the UAE without paying a separate delivery charge, once your order reaches AED 200. It isn’t unconditional on every single order — it’s a minimum-order threshold, and orders below that line carry a standard delivery fee.

That threshold matters more than it sounds. A single roll of tape and one box won’t qualify; a full set of moving boxes, bubble wrap and tape for a one-bedroom apartment usually will.

Which Areas Are Actually Covered

Delivery isn’t limited to Dubai. It covers the same domestic footprint Al Mas moves within: Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Al Ain, Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah, Umm Al Quwain and Ajman. If you’re ordering ahead of a move between two of these emirates, the packing materials and the move itself can be planned around the same timeline.

What You Can Actually Order

The core range is what most house moves and small office packs actually need: carton boxes in a few sizes, packing tape, bubble wrap, and protective wrap for furniture. For anything being shipped internationally rather than just moved across town, export-standard wooden crating is a separate, built-to-dimensions service rather than something you order off a shelf — worth checking our quality packaging and wooden crating pages if that’s closer to what you need.

Why the Order-First Approach Beats Buying on the Day

Ordering packing materials a week or two before moving day, rather than the morning of, gives you time to actually pack properly instead of stuffing everything into whatever boxes are left. It also means if a box size runs short, there’s still time for a top-up delivery before the truck arrives.

Delivery windows vary by area and current stock — we won’t promise same-day delivery everywhere in the UAE, because it genuinely depends on where you are and what’s in stock that day. If your move date is fixed, ordering materials early removes one more thing that can go wrong close to the date.

Recyclable Materials, Not Just Any Materials

Boxes and wrap ordered through Al Mas use recyclable packing materials as standard, rather than a premium add-on you have to ask for separately. For a one-time house move this matters less on cost, but it matters a lot on where the cardboard ends up afterwards, especially for anyone ordering in bulk for an office pack.

Ordering in Bulk for a Bigger Move

A studio apartment might need a dozen boxes; a four-bedroom villa or a small office pack can need several dozen, plus enough tape and wrap to actually finish the job without a second order halfway through. Ordering the full estimate upfront, rather than a starter batch, is usually what pushes the order past the AED 200 free-delivery line anyway — so it’s rarely worth splitting into two smaller orders.

Timing It Against Your Move

If you already have a moving date booked — whether it’s a local move or an international one — it’s worth ordering packing materials as soon as the date is confirmed rather than waiting. See our page on future booking if you’re still deciding when to lock in your move.

FAQ Section

Q: Is delivery really free on every order?

A: Free delivery applies once your order reaches AED 200. Orders below that amount are still delivered, just with a standard delivery charge added at checkout.

Q: Which parts of the UAE does free delivery cover?

A: The same areas Al Mas moves within: Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Al Ain, Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah, Umm Al Quwain and Ajman.

Q: How long does delivery take after I order?

A: It depends on your area and current stock levels, so we won’t quote a single fixed number for the whole UAE. Ordering a week or two before your move date leaves enough buffer either way.

Q: Can I order wooden crates the same way I order boxes?

A: No. Wooden crates are built to the dimensions of what you’re shipping, so they’re arranged as part of our packaging service rather than added to a standard online order.

Q: Should I order packing materials before or after booking my move?

A: Either works, but ordering as soon as your move date is confirmed gives you the most time to pack properly instead of rushing in the last few days.
