In short. A fridge or a wardrobe is not a job for bare arms. On Adom (adom.ma) and the AdomApp app (adomapp.com), you describe your handling job in Kenitra, professionals put in touch with you reply with their own equipment, and you pay after the service.
Why equipment comes first
Three things help you carry without getting hurt. Lifting straps share the effort between the people carrying. A hand truck or trolley takes over on level ground and along landings. And protection, meaning blankets or thick cardboard, covers the corners, the doors and the banister.
Whoever has none of this can simply say so in the request: "I have no equipment, please come prepared." You can also ask whether the professional brings the protection.
An imagined case: Nawfal on the second floor
Nawfal is an invented character for this guide. He lives on the second floor of a Kenitra building with no lift. He is replacing his fridge, taking an old two-door wardrobe down and bringing another one up. His first thought is to ask two friends. Then he wonders what he really needs to prepare.
Kenitra is a north-western city and part of the Rabat-Salé-Kénitra region, with daily trips to Rabat. That changes nothing about the lifting. Nawfal's own building is what counts.
A fridge is not a wardrobe
So name each one separately in the request. A wardrobe is bulky and delicate at the corners: empty it, remove anything that moves (shelves, and doors if the maker's instructions allow) and wrap it. A fridge has sensitive parts: empty it, unplug it ahead of time, leave time for the defrost water, and keep it as upright as possible, following the appliance's manual.
Nawfal writes two lines: "two fridges, one to go down and one to come up" and "one two-door wardrobe, to go down". That detail stops a professional arriving with a tool suited to only one of the jobs.
What to do before the day
Clear the route: rugs, shoes, bikes, bins. Measure the doors and the stairwell, then compare with the item. Warn a neighbour or the caretaker if the landing is narrow. Put small fragile things in a closed room.
Nawfal empties the wardrobe and the fridge the evening before, leaving no food inside, and holds the doors shut with light tape or a strap so they do not swing open mid-carry.
Booking the right help
On the booking page for handling and carrying help, Nawfal lists the items, the floor, the lack of a lift, the width of the stairs and what he can supply. Professionals reply; he compares and chooses.
Adom connects you with professionals and does not employ them. The price is a personalised, free quote on AdomApp, and you settle after the service.
When to stop or change the plan
If the item will not fit, the stairs are too tight or one of the carriers is in pain, stop. An equipped professional may suggest another route or method; otherwise, postpone. A damaged wardrobe can be replaced. A damaged back is much harder to put right.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need my own straps and trolley?
Not necessarily. Say in your request what you have and what is missing, and ask the professional to bring what is needed.
Should I unplug and empty the fridge first?
Yes, the day before if you can, and follow the appliance's manual for defrosting and the carrying position.
Can furniture be carried where there is no lift?
Yes, as long as you say so clearly: floor, width of the stairs, shape of the landings. That tells you how many people are needed.
Who protects the walls and banister?
Agree on that when booking. Ask whether the professional brings protection or whether you should set out blankets.
How much does carrying cost?
A personalised, free quote on AdomApp, depending on the items, the floor and the access.
When do I pay?
After the service.
