Logistics Company in Dammam & the Eastern Province

Container haulage, road freight, warehousing and customs clearance across Dammam, Al Khobar, Dhahran and Jubail.

The Eastern Province is where Saudi Arabia's industrial economy meets the Gulf. King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam handles a large share of the Kingdom's containerised imports, Jubail Industrial City is the centre of its petrochemical sector, and Dhahran and Al Khobar hold the head offices that buy for both. TQM International serves all of it from a base in Riyadh five to six hours up Highway 40 — the shortest inter-city lane in the country.

Most of what we move here starts or ends at the port. We collect containers from King Abdulaziz Port on skeletal trailers, de-stuff near the port or deliver the box to your site, handle the customs clearance through licensed brokers, and return the empty to the line. For exporters the same runs in reverse, with the export declaration lodged and the container delivered inside the vessel cut-off.

Jubail and Ras Al Khair add requirements a general carrier often cannot meet. Industrial-city gate procedures, safety inductions, booked delivery slots and — for chemicals — the correct vehicle, driver certification and safety data sheet. Tell us the plant, the gate and the permit requirement at booking and we plan around them rather than discovering them at the gate.

The Dammam–Riyadh lane is the fastest in Saudi Arabia: 400 km of dual carriageway, five to six hours of driving, and same-day or next-day delivery in either direction. That makes the Eastern Province the natural place to run daily replenishment, port drayage and just-in-time deliveries into the central region — and the reason our busiest scheduled departures run on it.

FAQ

Common questions

Do you collect containers from King Abdulaziz Port?

Yes — container drayage from the port is one of our main Eastern Province flows. We collect on skeletal trailers, de-stuff near the port or deliver the box to your site, and return the empty to the shipping line. Share the bill of lading, delivery order and gate-pass details at booking so clearance and collection line up.

How long does Dammam to Riyadh take?

Five to six hours of driving over 400 km on Highway 40. Loads collected in the morning are typically delivered the same afternoon, and a return load can be collected the next morning. It is the fastest inter-city lane in the Kingdom.

Can you deliver into Jubail Industrial City?

Yes. Jubail and Ras Al Khair require gate passes, safety inductions and booked delivery slots, and classified cargo needs the right vehicle plus driver certification and a safety data sheet. Give us the plant, gate and permit requirements at booking — arriving without them means waiting hours or being turned away.

Do you handle chemicals and industrial materials?

Yes, with licensed carriage, certified drivers, correct labelling and the safety documentation the cargo requires. Send the MSDS at booking so the right vehicle and driver are assigned rather than substituted at the last minute.

How quickly can you reach Bahrain from Dammam?

Same or next day over the King Fahd Causeway — roughly 25 km from Al Khobar, the closest cross-border run in the Kingdom. Clearance is usually quick, but the causeway is busy at weekends and holidays so mid-week departures are more predictable.

Do you offer warehousing in the Eastern Province?

Our storage is in Riyadh, five to six hours away, which suits customers holding national stock. For port-adjacent short-term storage and de-stuffing we work with facilities near King Abdulaziz Port — tell us the volume and dwell time and we will confirm the right arrangement.
