If you are moving from one apartment to another, you may need a vehicle to transport your household belongings.


A cargo van can be a suitable option if you have a bedsitter, one-bedroom apartment or a small load.


Ask for Transport in Nairobi provides covered cargo van transport for small apartment moves, furniture and household items in Nairobi and surrounding areas.

What Should You Look for in a Cargo Van Service?


1. A vehicle that fits your belongings


Think about the items you need to move. A typical apartment may contain:

  • A bed and mattress

  • A sofa

  • A medium-sized fridge

  • Clothes and shoes

  • Small furniture

  • A TV and small electronics

  • Kitchen items and boxes


Give the transporter a list of your items before booking. This helps determine whether everything will fit in one trip.


2. A covered cargo area


An enclosed cargo van keeps your belongings covered during transport. This helps protect furniture, clothes and electronics from rain and dust.


3. Clear pricing


The transport cost usually depends on the distance, the items being moved and any additional help required.


Provide the pickup location, delivery location and list of items when requesting a quote. Also mention the apartment floors.


4. Reliability


Choose a transporter who confirms the booking details and agrees on a pickup time.


Moving day can be stressful if the vehicle arrives late or the transporter has not understood what needs to be moved.


Confirm the date, time, locations and items before the move.


Can I Use a Cargo Van to Move Between Apartments?


Yes.


A cargo van can be suitable for many small apartment moves, provided your belongings fit inside.


For example, you may be moving from a bedsitter in one part of Nairobi to a new apartment in another area.


You might have a bed, sofa, fridge, clothes, shoes and several smaller household items.


A cargo van can carry these items when their combined size and weight are within the vehicle's capacity.


Always provide the exact pickup and delivery locations when requesting a quote.

What Should I Prepare Before the Cargo Van Arrives?


Prepare your belongings before the agreed pickup time.

  • Pack clothes and shoes into bags or boxes.

  • Remove loose items from drawers and cabinets.

  • Protect fragile electronics.

  • Keep small bed fittings together if the bed needs dismantling.

  • Confirm parking and access at both apartments.


Remember to mention unusually large items before booking. A cargo van has limited internal height, so very tall fridges and furniture may not fit.
