Machakos & Athi River

From Syokimau to the rural home in Ukambani

Syokimau, Mlolongo and Athi River are part of daily life in Nairobi, and many families who live there come from Machakos, Makueni or Kitui. We often collect from a Nairobi or Machakos mortuary and drive the family to a home burial in Ukambani.

We bring the coffin, the flowers and the full graveside setup, and coordinate with the family committee on the day.

Home burials across Ukambani

Most families in Machakos, Makueni and Kitui bury on family land. The weather is often hot and dry, so a gazebo for the casket and shade for the family matter as much as the lowering gear.

Some rural homes are reached on murram roads. We check access in advance and plan where the hearse can stop.

For a church service in Machakos town followed by a burial at home, we keep the procession together and on time.
