Relocating from one house to another is part of our life activities especially if you live in rental houses.
Kenyans have this tendency of relocating at night. It has now become a tradition that 'should' be followed.
Various reasons have led to this trend.
1. Fear of theft
This is especially in the ghettos where crime is common. It is believed that thieves will investigate on what they should steal. Those with modern electronics fall victim of such theft cases.
2. The shame of dirty households
This mainly falls under bachelors' hands. In this cases, the mattress covers and beddings may have turned from the original color. Moreover in families with bed wetting children's it will always have unpleasant mattresses. What about relocating with a dusty cupboard and sofa sets?
3. Possession of old outdated items
With the high rate of new trends in the market, things become outdated in a matter of time. In this case, a certain version of households might be several generations behind. For example a 14 inch CRT TV, it becomes very awkward carrying it across the streets when relocating. Old worn out furniture will automatically force you to relocate at night
4. Privacy reasons
This might sound as the major reason, but a combination of the above factors will automatically force you to do it at night in the name of privacy.
