What qualities do you look for when searching for the best moving company? Nairobi has witnessed a surge in movers in recent years. Any mover can claim to be the best and pull up their reviews as proof, but how do you objectively judge if they’re the right mover for you? In this article, we’re looking at Nellions Moving and Relocations, a pioneer in the Kenyan moving industry and a master innovator. We’ll make a case for why their service offerings are a cut above the rest, and why they make a compelling choice for someone looking for a professional mover.
Moving services
Nellions offers a diverse range of moving services: available for both individual and commercial customers:
House Moving
Our Inland Move service covers door-to-door, floor-to-floor, apartment-to-apartment, street-to-street, estate-to-estate, city-to-city, and county-to-county moves within Kenya. Equipped with the latest technology, we confidently cater to all types of homes, from bungalows, flats, and townhouses to studio apartments. Pricing is mainly based on the volume of goods, time, complexity, and distance from House A to House B.
International Moving (Origin Services)
Moving from Kenya to any other country worldwide. We’ll handle all your transfers and give advisory on all necessary paperwork. International moving is stressful and emotional most of the time plus it needs very detailed planning. We have the whole world covered! Our extensive experience and certified memberships allow us to easily maneuver through the unique needs that accompany international removal. We also educate our clients on the customs and documentation requirements beforehand to ensure that all is in order before they leave Kenya. Communication is key in order to execute a successful international move.
Office Moving
Our office move service is designed to get you back to work as soon as possible. We understand that conducting a move during business hours is in some cases practically impossible, and we are able to carry out the move during flexible hours so business isn’t adversely affected by the move. Our movers are trained in technical aspects that enable them to safely handle complex office installations like safes, electricals, furniture, and other heavy items.
Destination Services
The success of any international move begins with understanding the country one is moving to even before the move starts. This is particularly very crucial in Africa and other developing countries. Being a Kenyan company, Nellions understands the unique issues regarding the country very well. We put the interests of our clients first because we know relocating to another country is naturally not easy, especially for families. We act on our client’s behalf at Kenya customs, with shipping lines and port authorities. Delivery is always scheduled ahead of time and our specialist team of movers will do the entire offloading, unpacking, setting up basic housekeeping, and removal of debris. In case you need the services of a handyman to like to mount your paintings, TV, etc, we have got you covered. We serve expatriates, diplomats, United Nations employees, NGOs, multinationals (employee relocation), and Kenyans who are returning home.
Cross-border Moves
Moving with us within the East African and COMESA region will be such a breeze for you, given our experience and bank of resourceful information. Our cross-border moving service covers Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Southern Sudan. We do regional removals with a lot of ease. This is because of our experience and expertise in Africa. With only one point of contact (move controller), our moving crew will execute your move from city to city seamlessly.
Storage
Your personal effects and prized possessions deserve a home away from home too! Trust us with them. We will house them in an affordable, clean, secure, and accessible warehouse on a short-term or long-term arrangement.
Machinery Move
This is a specialized service for organizations that are going through an expansion, changing location, or in transition. Machines come in all sorts of weights, shapes, and sizes. Most are heavy, expensive, and very critical to an organization’s core work. They might be industrial manufacturing machines, printing presses, big data storage units (servers), large medical machines, safes, vaults, ATM machines, etc. We take great care to ensure that machinery moves safely, including employing a specialized crew for machinery moves as well as equipment such as cranes, forklifts, and suitable trucks.
Furniture Installation
Nellions employs an experienced and highly skilled team of carpenters who can ensure the safe disassembly, movement, and reassembly of literally all household and office furniture. We have the tools, the training, creativity, the skills and the energy to set you up. We are very good with modular furniture and completely at ease with bespoke furniture too – just bring your manuals. Our carpentry team is well-versed in fixing and setting up furniture systems from local and international manufacturers, giving us the ability to handle a wide variety of furniture.
Auto Relocation Services
Some vehicles are antiques, others are vintage cars, some are sports cars and others are rally vehicles. Whether you are moving your car together with your household goods or you just want to relocate with the car alone, we at Nellions understand that your vehicle is not just your car, it is a part of your family. We have a good understanding of the entire documentation requirements for shipping your vehicle out of Kenya and have the technical expertise of handling it from preparation, loading, lashing, offloading, etc to ensure that it reaches the destination without any damage and you start to use it immediately. Every year we move many vehicles within Kenya & East Africa, to other African countries and even to Europe. Our premium car shifting service is tailor-made to each client. You might want to move your car within Kenya or relocate it to a neighbouring country or even move your automobile overseas, we do all this with ease. Sometimes we containerize or high lift them. We have vast experience moving vehicles, and we are committed to ensuring that the move goes through without a hitch.
Fine Art Moving
Fine Art is many times priceless, irreplaceable, and deeply personal. It could be anything from collector’s items to paintings, antiques, sculptures, museum items, art galleries, etc. It is for this reason we give this service very unique attention because absolutely nothing should ever go wrong. Your works of art require careful handling to ensure they’re untarnished when they arrive at their intended destinations. We achieve this by ensuring we only assign such moves to our elite movers, using the best packing materials available, as well as safe handling throughout the move.
Piano Moving
Pianos are generally bulky, heavy, and not cheap. They require delicate handling, and we do so by ensuring that we use the right materials and equipment to move any piano.
Customer Service
Nellions is very keen on giving the highest level of service to all its clients, and it shows from the initial point of contact with the company. Upon receiving a request, we toil to ensure that we understand the client’s needs and proactively strive to meet them. We are with you every step of the way, constantly in communication with you before, during, and after the move. Most clients greatly value this, and after the first move they usually never need to find another mover, because of how much we’re focused on customer experience.
