Al Mellah International Shipping (0580402747) is a shipping company from Qassim to Algeria moving final-return furniture, cars, suitcases, boxes and home appliances from Buraidah, Unaizah, Al Rass and Al Bukayriyah to Algiers, Oran, Setif, Constantine, Tizi Ouzou and Annaba, by road to Jeddah Islamic Port and then by sea to the arrival port nearest your wilaya in 4 to 7 weeks. Prices start from SAR 310 per suitcase, SAR 4,450 for a room of furniture by consolidated shipping and SAR 11,500 for a 20 ft container.
Algerian doctors, nurses, teachers and university lecturers work in Qassim, many from the northern wilayas: Setif, Constantine, Tizi Ouzou, Algiers and Oran. Most of what we ship for them falls into two types: a single employee sending suitcases and appliances home in batches, and a family returning for good with their household furniture. Qassim is in the heart of the Kingdom, two to three days from Jeddah port, and road transport to the port is included in the price.
🧳 Suitcases and appliances in batches for your family in Algeria
An Algerian employee in Qassim often sends things home before the final return: a washing machine, a TV, clothes, kitchenware. We ship them by consolidated per-piece shipping and add them to the shared Algeria containers in Jeddah:

🚗 Shipping your car from Qassim to Algeria
First we review the car’s eligibility: for a resident of Algeria, a car 3 years old or less and non-diesel; for a final returnee, per the change-of-residence certificate. If it’s eligible, you get export plates and an export certificate from Qassim traffic, and we load it on an enclosed carrier to Jeddah, where it ships inside a container with the furniture, covered and secured, or on a RoRo vessel.
