These are the terms you agree to when you book a move with RAK Easy Movers. They explain what your quote covers, what isn't included, what we need from you, and what happens if something goes wrong.
Most moving companies hide this in small print. We'd rather you read it before you book, so there's nothing to argue about later.
If anything here isn't clear, email info@rakeasymovers.com or call +971 55 229 7979 and we'll explain it.
If you read nothing else
The five points that matter most.
- Your written price is fixed after the survey. It doesn't change on move day.
- You pay after your belongings are delivered and you've checked them.
- Cancel more than 3 days ahead and there's no charge.
- Don't pack cash, jewellery or documents — we can't carry them.
- If we damage something, we repair it or pay for it. Tell us within 7 days.
Who These Terms Are Between
"We" and "us" means RAK Easy Movers, a moving service operating in Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates.
"You" means the person or company booking the move.
These terms apply from the moment you accept a written quote from us, whether by email, WhatsApp or in person.
Your Quote and Your Price
Prices shown on our website are ranges, not quotes. They give you a rough idea before you call.
Your actual price comes after a free survey of your property. We send it in writing within two hours of the visit, and it is valid for 30 days.
The price only changes if you change the job — more items than we surveyed, a different address, or extra services added after the quote. If that happens, we tell you the new price before we start, not after.
What Your Price Includes
Every quote covers:
- Labour for the full crew on the day
- Truck, fuel and Salik where it applies
- Blankets, stretch wrap, trolleys and floor protection
- Dismantling and reassembly of standard furniture
- Stairs, long carries and lift waiting time
- Building NOC and gate pass paperwork
- A final walkthrough with you before we leave
Packing materials are included when you've asked us to pack. If you pack yourself, you pay for labour and truck only.
What's Charged Separately
These are not in your quote. If any apply to your move, we tell you the cost in writing before the day — never after.
- Storage between your move-out and move-in dates
- A second trip, if your belongings aren't ready when we arrive
- Crane or external hoisting for items that won't fit the stairs or lift
- Disposal of furniture you don't want to take
- Date changes inside 48 hours of your slot
- Parking fines or permit costs imposed by your building
- Specialist handling of pianos, safes, aquariums or heavy marble, where this wasn't declared at survey
Things We Can't Move
For safety and legal reasons, our crew cannot carry these. Please move them yourself.
Keep these with you:
- Cash, bank cards and cheques
- Jewellery, gold and watches
- Passports, visas, Emirates ID and legal documents
- Laptops, phones and small electronics
- Medication you need during the move
We cannot carry at all:
- Gas cylinders, aerosols, paint, fuel and solvents
- Loose lithium batteries, e-cigarettes and power banks
- Fireworks, chemicals and anything flammable or explosive
- Live animals and plants
- Food that will spoil, and open or unsealed liquids
- Anything illegal under UAE law
What We Need From You
- Tell us at survey about anything heavy, fragile or unusually valuable
- Make sure we can reach the property — parking, lift access, gate pass
- Be there, or send someone you trust, at both addresses
- Empty and defrost fridges and freezers at least 24 hours before
- Disconnect washing machines and water-connected appliances, or tell us so we can arrange it
- Check that nothing is left behind before we leave
- Make sure you own the goods, or have permission from whoever does
Access and Delays
We plan the crew and truck around what we see at the survey. If conditions on the day are different, timing and cost can be affected.
Things that commonly cause delays:
- The lift is out of service, or wasn't booked
- Your building's NOC or gate pass wasn't approved
- Packing isn't finished when we arrive
- Access to the new address isn't available at the agreed time
If a delay is on our side, we fix it at our cost. If it's outside our control, we'll work with you to find a solution — but waiting time beyond two hours, or a return trip, may be charged. We'll tell you before anything is added.
Arrival times are estimates. Traffic, weather and the previous job can shift them. We call you if we're running late.
Payment
You pay after your belongings are delivered, placed and you've checked them. Payment is due the same day, in AED, by cash or bank transfer.
For office and commercial moves, we may agree different terms in writing before the job.
Changing or Cancelling Your Move
Plans change. Here's how it works:
| Notice given | Charge |
|---|---|
| More than 3 days' notice | No charge |
| 2 to 3 days' notice | No charge, subject to availability |
| Within 48 hours | AED 200 to cover the held slot |
| On the day, before we arrive | AED 400 |
| After we've arrived | 50% of the quoted price |
We never charge for a cancellation caused by something on our side.
If Something Gets Damaged
We photograph large and fragile items before loading, so the condition before and after is on record.
To make this work, you need to:
- Point out any damage at delivery, before we leave, where you can see it
- Tell us about anything you find later within 7 days of the move
- Keep the item and let us inspect it before it's repaired or thrown away
We're not an insurance company. For items of unusually high value, see the next section.
Items of Unusual Value
If you're moving something worth more than AED 5,000 as a single item — fine art, antiques, a grand piano, a designer piece — tell us at survey.
We'll crate and handle it separately, and we'll tell you honestly whether we're the right people to move it. For some items we'll recommend a specialist or separate transit cover instead.
What We're Not Responsible For
Being clear about this upfront is better than arguing about it later:
- Items you packed yourself, where the box is undamaged but contents are broken
- Electrical or mechanical faults that appear after a move, where there's no visible damage
- Normal wear from use, or items already damaged before we arrived
- Damage caused by items you didn't tell us about — undeclared valuables, hazardous goods
- Delays or losses caused by events outside our control: accidents, road closures, severe weather, government action
- Indirect losses, such as missed work or rebooked flights
For damage to your property — walls, floors, door frames — our responsibility is to repair the affected area. Please point it out before we leave the premises, or tell us the same day.
If You're Not Happy
Tell us first. Call +971 55 229 7979 or email info@rakeasymovers.com and we'll try to sort it out directly. In most cases we can.
If we can't agree, these terms are governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates, and the courts of Ras Al Khaimah have jurisdiction.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The version that applies to your move is the one published when you accepted your written quote. We'll send you a copy if you ask.
