Get Started NowReal numbers, not a guess — computed the same way our quote calculator prices your shipment: chargeable weight is the higher of actual weight or volumetric weight (L × W × H in cm ÷ 5000 for air), and every air shipment is billed for at least 2.5 kg.

A smartwatch + charger is light enough that the 2.5 kg minimum applies — you're paying for weight the shipment doesn't have. Consolidating it with a heavier item like a compact printer (charged on its own 6.3 kg) usually costs the same or less than shipping both separately.
Air shipping is the fastest way to get your shipments to Kenya.
99% of our customers shop online and use our warehouse address as the shipping address when checking out. This way, you avoid double shipping and double shipping costs.
All you need to do is to create a free shipping account and we'll ask you for the receiver details in Kenya.
Once you finish the account setup, we'll give a warehouse address unique to that receiver with a warehouse code.
We assign a unique warehouse code because some names are too common in Kenya and packages can easily be misdelivered and also to safeguard your receiver's privacy.
At Kentex Cargo, we understand that every shipment is unique. That's why we place a strong emphasis on understanding the specific requirements of your package. Please see the prohibited goods list.
Whether it's fragile, hazardous, or perishable, our experienced team can handle it all. We make it our business to know your business.
Don't worry about the hassles of packing. We provide expert packing services tailored to the needs of your item.
Our team will ensure your package is protected during transit, taking into consideration the destination's climate, duration of transit, and potential handling.
We follow a transparent pricing model. The cost of your shipment will be based on the chargeable weight, which is the greater of the actual weight and the volumetric weight.
The actual weight is straightforward – it's what your package weighs on the scale. The volumetric weight is based on the space your package will occupy on the aircraft.
This is crucial because a light package that takes up a lot of space prevents us from loading other goods, and thus we have to charge for the space taken. We calculate this using the formula:
Length (inches) * Width (inches) * Height (inches) / 306 = Volumetric Weight (Kgs)
We're here to help you understand these calculations and ensure you get the most cost-effective solution.
With our vast experience in air shipping and an established presence in Kenya, we make the process seamless and efficient for you.
Our team is proficient in handling all the logistics and paperwork, ensuring your package reaches its destination safely and on time.
We provide easy and transparent quotations. Once you have your chargeable weight, reach out to us for a quote.
We guarantee competitive pricing with no hidden costs. Our commitment is to provide value to our customers.
Upon agreement, we'll handle the rest. You can rest easy knowing that your package is in good hands. We provide real-time tracking so you can monitor your shipment every step of the way.
We pick up goods in PA once every month at a pickup fee of $20/article regardless of the size of the box or barrel.

It takes 75-90 days to deliver your ocean freight to Kenya. Your receiver can pick up at our warehouse located along Mombasa road or we can deliver anywhere within Nairobi at a flat fee of $20/item.
Get Started with Ocean ShippingOcean shipping runs on a monthly schedule, not weekly.
Ocean shipments follow monthly cutoffs, and planning early helps you avoid missing a container. If you are doing pickup, you should schedule it early enough to meet the cutoff.
Ocean shipping takes longer than air shipping, but it saves money on large shipments. Delivery typically takes about 75 to 90 days from the day the container departs.
