Dubai-Specific Packing Tips

  • Dubai heat: Don't pack candles, chocolates in sealed trucks
  • Pack electronics with extra padding - sand can get everywhere
  • Keep documents separate: Passports, visas, tenancy contracts
  • Liquids must be sealed - consider disposing and rebuying
  • Books are heavy - use small boxes to avoid overweight
  • Label boxes in English and Arabic if helpful
  • Pack prayer mats and religious items separately
