What changes your moving cost?
Moving costs in Nairobi are not one size fits all. These are the factors that shape your final price.
Property Size
The number of rooms and the total volume is the single biggest factor in your price. A bedsitter costs far less than a four bedroom family home.
Distance
Relocating within the same estate costs less than crossing Nairobi, and routes to other counties are priced on a fixed route basis.
Packing Service
Adding packing to your quote raises the total but ensures items are properly protected. Packing materials are included in all Space Move Kenya quotes.
Date and Timing
End of month dates, from the 25th to the 31st, and weekends are the busiest and most expensive times to relocate in Nairobi. Mid month weekdays are typically cheaper.
Floor and Access
Upper floors without a lift, narrow staircases and difficult access take longer and affect the final figure. Mention floor and access when requesting your quote.
Specialist Items
Pianos, safes, large appliances, artwork, and other specialist items require extra handling and affect the total moving price. Always declare specialist items when requesting your quote.
Fixed Price
Always Guaranteed
