Furniture removal and car shipping from Qassim to Lebanon has a geographic advantage: Qassim is the major Saudi region closest to the northern road. The road route from Buraidah via Hail and Al-Jouf to Jordan, then Syria, then the Masnaa crossing is much shorter than starting from the Eastern Province. The sea route is also available via Jeddah port and the Suez Canal to the port of Beirut. The choice between them depends on crossing conditions at shipping time.
