As of mid-2025, the cost of refilling a 6kg K-Gas or similar LPG cylinder in Kenya ranges between KSh 1,200 to KSh 1,500, depending on your location, the brand, and whether you’re getting the gas delivered or picking it up from a local dealer. In Nairobi and surrounding areas like Kasarani, refilling a 6kg gas cylinder typically costs around KSh 1,300 to KSh 1,400 at most retail outlets.
Some local suppliers and gas delivery services may offer promotional prices as low as KSh 1,199, especially when there’s a discount or you’re using a generic brand instead of a premium one like Total, K-Gas, or Shell Afrigas. If you opt for home delivery, you might pay a little more usually KSh 1,400 to KSh 1,800 due to transport costs or convenience charges.
Prices also fluctuate based on fuel transport costs, VAT, and the location of the supplier. Urban centers tend to be slightly cheaper due to more competition, while rural areas might experience slightly higher prices due to transport logistics.
To save money, always compare prices among nearby dealers, ask about ongoing promotions, and check whether the refill price includes delivery or VAT.
