Hi All,

Presently I'm working in Oman and I have got an job opportunity in Bahrain. As I have received visa recently, I would like to move along with my household stuff(furniture, cooking range, cooking vessels,etc). Please can anyone help me in finding an economic transportation service or movers/packers from Oman to Bahrain?

I have been offered BD200 as HRA, will it be sufficient to find a decent 2bhk apartment in Indian community areas? Which are the preferred locations to live with family & kids preferrably with Indian community population?

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
sonuprash

Hi,

I would recommend that you get in touch with a local cargo agency in Oman who can do it for you. Regarding housing i would recommend that you come down first get to know the best place to live based on your need and then decide (your new colleagues could also be good guides). Below is a list of link you should go through for having an idea about cost of living in Bahrain.

I am sure if anyone has used a cargo service before they would reply back.

Good luck
