How It Works

1

Enter Your Address & Receiver

Choose home pickup (the carrier collects from your US address) or drop-off with the carrier, enter your US address, then add your receiver in Kenya: name, Kenya phone number and delivery location (pickup at our Westlands office or a county for delivery), plus the value of the items.


2

Select Box Size & Pay

Choose a box and one of the US carriers offered for your address (UPS, FedEx or USPS), then pay online by M-Pesa or card (including Apple Pay). The prepaid label checkout takes only these two, so your wallet balance cannot be used for a prepaid label.


3

Print Label & Pack Items

Your prepaid shipping label is created automatically after payment and sent to the email address and phone number on your order. You can also print it from your order page. Pack your items securely within the box's weight limit and attach the label to the outside.


4

Hand It to the Carrier

If you chose drop-off, take your labeled box to a location of the carrier on your label and ask for a receipt as proof of drop-off. If you chose home pickup, wait for the carrier to collect it from your address.


5

We Ship & Deliver

Your box arrives at our US warehouse and flies to Kenya on a Wednesday departure (Monday cut-off). We handle customs clearance and any duties, then your receiver collects it from our Westlands office or we deliver it, as chosen when you ordered.

What's Included

  • Prepaid US carrier label (UPS, FedEx or USPS)
  • USA domestic shipping to our warehouse
  • Air freight from USA to Kenya
  • Customs clearance and documentation
  • Delivery to the Kenya county you choose, or pickup at 65 Muthithi Road, Westlands

Important Notes

Packing Tips:

  • Use sturdy boxes - new or strong reused boxes
  • Wrap fragile items in bubble wrap
  • Fill empty spaces with packing paper
  • Place heavy items at the bottom
  • Seal with heavy-duty packing tape

Weight Limit: Do not exceed the weight limit for your box. If a box is heavier than its limit, the extra weight is invoiced to you. For packages you send without a prepaid box, see how we calculate volumetric weight for bulky-but-light items.
