What a Nairobi to Mombasa move actually costs and takes

Nairobi to Mombasa is our longest standard route at about 480 km. The distance charge is simple — 480 km at Ksh 100 per km adds Ksh 48,000 to your base fare — but the day itself needs more planning than a move across town.

What it costs

Take your Nairobi base fare and add Ksh 48,000. A 2-bedroom (Ksh 18,000 base) comes to Ksh 66,000 before extras. A bedsitter comes to Ksh 56,000. The final figure is confirmed once we check your inventory and access at both ends.

How the day runs

  • Loading starts early — aim to be on the road before 8 a.m.
  • The truck reaches Mombasa late afternoon or evening depending on stops; your goods stay sealed and strapped the whole way.
  • Offloading happens the same day where access allows, or first thing the next morning for late arrivals.
  • Long legs are where goods-in-transit cover matters most — ask for it on the quote form.

What changes at the coast

Apartment blocks in Mombasa often have strict loading hours and some need advance notice to security. Share the drop-off estate name and any access rules on the booking form so we schedule around them.
