Moving Company in Nairobi for Every Estate and Apartment

KejaPal is a moving company in Nairobi that moves apartments, family houses and offices across every estate in the city. We know the lift rules in Kilimani, the narrow roads in South B, the long driveways in Karen and the traffic on Thika Road, so your move is planned around the real city, not a map.

Movers in Nairobi

Moving in Nairobi is different

Nairobi moves are shaped by three things: traffic, building rules and weather. Traffic decides when the truck should leave. Building rules decide when the crew can use the lift and where the truck can park. Weather decides how the furniture should be wrapped. A good moving company in Nairobi plans all three before the day, so the crew is not stuck outside a locked gate at 4pm in the rain.

Offices and businesses

Estates we move every week

  • Westlands, Parklands and Spring Valley. High-rise apartments with lift bookings, security checks and tight parking.
  • Kilimani, Kileleshwa and Lavington. Busy apartment blocks where moving hours are often limited to weekdays.
  • Karen, Langata and Runda. Large family homes with long driveways, gardens and heavy furniture.
  • South B, South C and Nairobi West. Narrow roads and older flats with stairs but no lifts.
  • Embakasi, Syokimau and Utawala. Growing estates with new apartments and townhouses.
  • Kasarani, Roysambu, Ruaka and Kahawa. Thika Road and Northern Bypass estates with heavy evening traffic.

Moving services in Nairobi

Our team offers the full range of moving services in Nairobi, so you can book everything from one company.

Movers in Nairobi

Local moves within Nairobi

Moves within Nairobi are usually quicker and cheaper than long-distance moves, because the truck travels a short way. Even so, our moving company in Nairobi follow the same plan: survey, written quote, careful packing and a signed inventory. Most local moves finish in half a day to a full day, depending on the size of the home.

Nairobi traffic and timing

The best time to move in Nairobi is early. Trucks that leave at 7am usually cross the city before the worst jams. In contrast, a truck that leaves at 5pm can spend two hours on Mombasa Road or Waiyaki Way. Therefore we start most moves early, and we plan the route around known pinch points. Where it helps, our drivers use the Nairobi Expressway or the bypasses to avoid the city centre. For big moves, we sometimes load on one day and deliver early the next morning.

Costs and pricing

How our movers in Nairobi price a move

We do not publish fixed prices for moves in Nairobi, because no two moves are the same. Instead, we look at your items, both addresses, access and your date, then agree a price with you in writing.

  • Volume and weight. How much furniture, how many boxes and any heavy items.
  • Distance and route. Within Nairobi or between towns, plus traffic and road conditions.
  • Access. Stairs, lifts, narrow gates and how far the truck can park.
  • Services. Packing, dismantling, storage, cleaning or special items such as pianos and safes.
  • Timing. Month-end weekends and holidays are busiest, so flexible dates help.

Our moving cost guide explains each factor in detail.

Apartment rules in Nairobi

Many Nairobi apartments ask for notice before a move, a lift booking, a clearance letter from the landlord or a deposit for damage to common areas. Some allow moves only on weekdays or before 6pm. So we ask about these rules when we quote and remind you a week before. Our crew protects lifts with blankets, carries items rather than dragging them and leaves the corridors clean. See our apartment movers page for more detail.

Packing with our moving company in Nairobi

Packing decides whether things arrive whole. Therefore our moving company in Nairobi wrap plates and glasses one by one in paper, stand them on their edges in strong boxes and fill every gap. In addition, mirrors and glass tops travel in cardboard frames, while sofas and mattresses go into stretch wrap. Finally, every box gets a room label, so unpacking is quick.

How a move with us works

  1. Tell us about the move. First, share both addresses, your date and a list or video of your items.
  2. Get a written quote. Next, we confirm the crew, the truck, the materials and the scope in writing.
  3. Pack and prepare. Then our packers wrap fragile items and label every box by room, or you pack yourself.
  4. Moving day. The crew loads, secures and drives your things, across the city.
  5. Set up. Finally, we place every item, rebuild furniture and take the packing waste away.

Rain and moving in Nairobi

Nairobi has two rainy seasons, usually around March to May and again in October to December. Afternoon storms can be heavy. As a result, we wrap sofas, mattresses and wooden furniture in stretch wrap as well as blankets during these months. Our trucks are covered, and boxes are taped on every seam. If a storm hits during loading, the crew pauses for a few minutes rather than carry things through the rain. The Kenya Meteorological Department publishes daily forecasts we check before every move.

Office moves in Nairobi

Nairobi is home to thousands of offices in Upper Hill, Westlands, Kilimani, the CBD, Gigiri and along Mombasa Road. Office buildings often require moves after hours, with loading bay bookings and security clearance for every crew member. Our office movers handle those details, and we usually move offices over a weekend so staff are back at work on Monday.

Small moves and single items in Nairobi

Not every move needs a big truck. For a bedsitter, a single sofa or a few boxes, our moving company in Nairobi can send a pickup with one or two helpers. Similarly, students and young professionals often share one canter to split the cost. In short, you pay only for what you need.

What our Nairobi moving crew brings

Every truck that our moving company in Nairobi send carries moving blankets, stretch wrap, ratchet straps, dollies, a tool kit, spare boxes and tape. Consequently, the crew can deal with surprises on the day, such as an extra wardrobe or a mirror that needs a frame. The team leader also carries the inventory, which you check and sign at both ends.

How it works

Planning for surprises

Moving day can also bring surprises, such as a lift that breaks or a gate that stays locked. So our moving company in Nairobi confirm access with the caretaker a day before. If something still goes wrong, the team leader calls you at once and agrees a plan. Moreover, we leave spare time in the schedule, so small delays do not ruin the day.

Tips for moving in Nairobi

A few simple steps make any move in Nairobi smoother.

  • Book two to three weeks ahead, and earlier for month-end weekends.
  • Tell your landlord, caretaker or estate management your moving date early.
  • Declutter before you pack, so the truck and the price are smaller.
  • Keep documents, money, medicines and chargers in a bag that travels with you.
  • Pack a first-night box with sheets, towels, a kettle and basic food.

Our house moving checklist lists every step week by week.

Moving with children and pets

Moving is hard on children and pets. So pack a bag of favourite toys, keep pets in a quiet room on the day and, if possible, let a relative look after young children while our moving company in Nairobi load. After that, set up the children's room first at the new home, because a familiar bed helps everyone settle. Meanwhile, the crew carries on with the rest of the house.

Care, damage and cover

Accidents are rare when items are packed and loaded well, but it is wise to plan for them. Before the move, we photograph valuable items and list them on the inventory. If something is damaged, tell the team leader on the day and note it on the delivery sheet. We then investigate quickly and, where we are at fault, repair or compensate as agreed in the quote. For high-value moves, we can also help you arrange goods-in-transit cover with a licensed insurer.

Why choose KejaPal in Nairobi

Choosing a moving company in Nairobi is about trust. You are handing strangers everything you own. So we work in a way that earns that trust: a written quote, a named coordinator, a uniformed crew and an inventory you sign at both ends. Furniture travels in blankets and stretch wrap, and appliances travel upright. In short, we treat your things as if they were ours.

Deposits, payment and receipts

We keep payment simple. A small deposit holds your date, and you pay the balance when the move is complete. We accept M-Pesa and bank transfer and issue a receipt for every payment. In addition, businesses can ask our moving company in Nairobi for an invoice in the company name. There are no surprise charges, because every extra is agreed in writing before the day.
