About shipping to Egypt
Home Safe ships from Saudi Arabia to Egypt, covering Cairo, Alexandria, Giza, Port Said and Asyut. We collect from Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Makkah, Madinah and every other city in the Kingdom, and ship by land and air according to the size of your shipment and how urgent it is, at competitive prices and with a written quote that shows what the price includes before you commit.
The service covers inspection and volume estimate, dismantling and professional multi-layer packing, loading and transport, preparing the documents and customs clearance at the ports of Nuweiba, Safaga and Hurghada, optional insurance on the value of the goods, temporary storage where needed, and then delivery to the address with reassembly. An update reaches you at every stage of the shipment until final receipt, so you are never left waiting without news.
We ship to Egypt whole-home furniture and appliances, personal effects and students’ boxes, commercial cargo and exhibition supplies, and heavy or delicate pieces that need wooden crates and special securing inside the container.

We ship vehicles to Egypt — RoRo or container
Egypt is one of the destinations we move cars to regularly, through the ports of Nuweiba, Safaga and Hurghada. We recommend the most economical method for your car’s value and the arrival port, and prepare the entry documents before departure, not after the vehicle arrives.
- RoRo: The vehicle drives on by its own wheels — the most economical for used cars.
- Container: Secured with four straps and chocks under the tyres — more protective for luxury and classic cars.
- Triptyque: Temporary-entry procedures and release documents ready before shipping.
What sets shipping to Egypt apart
The nature of the route
Shipping to Egypt goes by road and ferry: shipments are consolidated in Riyadh or Jeddah, the truck then travels by road to Duba, Jeddah or Aqaba, boards the ferry whole, and comes off at Nuweiba, Safaga or Hurghada. Air to Cairo is for the urgent.
What its customs look at
Inspection and customs clearance take place at the arrival port while the shipment is still on its truck. Egypt looks closely at the value and description of goods, and electrical and electronic appliances face inspection and higher charges. Returnees’ personal shipments have exemptions, with conditions we go through with you before shipping.
What we ship there most
- Returnees’ furniture
- Electrical appliances
- Personal effects and parcels
- Commercial goods
A tip from experience
After clearance the truck goes to the warehouse in Egypt, and shipments are distributed from it by small vehicles to the addresses. So give your address and an Egyptian mobile number exactly.
