@Premio,I think you were not robbed of any money, most of the CFS, Im meant to understand give 4 or 5 days free. I recently self-imported my ride and for exactly 26 days I paid no extra coin at KENCONT CFS though mine was 'risky' arrangement.

MY experience:I bought a vehicle when on high seas,ie Did a T/T to AUTOCRAFTJAPAN (ACJ) and collected the unit from the local representative at Mombasa.Since by the time i was buying the vehicle was already loaded in the ship,the all documentation were in ACJ country representative name , save for the payment invoice. Though risky it was a blessing that the unit came with their name, otherwise i would have paid hefty storage fine

@254 had i known that several cfs offers waivers on storage i would have saved 22k.The total port charges were 44000ksh instead of the indurstry average of 19k.

what i mean is actual port handling charges like wharfarge and the others no agent fee no storage charges the likes of vitz should be around 16k nze allion 18-20k prados 25k like that.

Kencont CFS - 21 days free storage... incl. destined for Kenya.

oh... is that the case ?

Then my forwarding agents have some good arrangement with the CFS.
