01Border Crossing Clearance
We prepare Jordanian export paperwork and Saudi import paperwork before the truck reaches Al Haditha, to reduce time waiting at the border.
02Commercial Only — Full Truckloads & Containers
This route is built for B2B enterprises. We handle commercial cargo and project shipments as full truckloads and containers.
03Clearance on Both Sides
We arrange export clearance from Jordan, then clear the Saudi import ourselves as a licensed customs broker, with FASAH and SABER handled end to end where applicable, so your cargo doesn't wait at the crossing over paperwork.
04Delivery to Your Site
After clearance, we move your cargo overland to its final destination in the Kingdom, or hold it at our Riyadh warehouse until your schedule calls for it.
