Senior Moving Services FAQs
What is senior moving?
Senior moving services are specialized moving solutions designed to assist older adults with downsizing, relocating, or transitioning to new homes, such as assisted living facilities or smaller residences. Our team provides extra support and care to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience.
What makes your senior moving service different from regular moving services?
Our senior moving service includes additional support tailored to the needs of older adults, such as assistance with downsizing, packing delicate or sentimental items, coordinating with family members, and even setting up the new home to make the transition as comfortable as possible.
Do you provide assistance with downsizing and organizing?
Yes! Our team can help with sorting, organizing, and deciding which items to keep, donate, or discard. We understand that downsizing can be emotional and overwhelming, so we work patiently and respectfully to make the process as smooth as possible.
How do you handle valuable or sentimental items?
We handle all items with the utmost care, and our team is trained in packing and moving valuable or sentimental items securely. For items of significant value, we also offer specialized packing materials and handling procedures to ensure safe transport.
Can family members be involved in the process?

Do you offer packing and unpacking services?
Yes, our full-service option includes packing all belongings in the current home, safely transporting them, and then unpacking and setting up the new residence. We strive to recreate familiar spaces and make the new environment feel like home.
What if the move requires storage for some items?
We offer flexible storage options for any items that might not be needed immediately but are not ready to be discarded. This can be helpful during the downsizing process, allowing you to store belongings securely until a final decision is made.
How far in advance should we schedule a senior move?
We recommend scheduling a senior move at least 4–6 weeks in advance to allow ample time for planning, organizing, and coordination with family members or other stakeholders. However, we can often accommodate more urgent requests as well.
Do you help with the layout and setup at the new residence?
Yes, we can assist in setting up furniture and arranging items according to your preferences or requirements. We work to make the new space comfortable, safe, and familiar to ease the transition.
What if the new residence has specific accessibility needs?
Our team is experienced in setting up spaces with accessibility in mind, such as arranging furniture to create open pathways and ensuring that commonly used items are easy to reach. Let us know any specific needs, and we’ll make sure the new home is set up accordingly.
