  • Call your Senior Move Manager!

  • It is never too early to start sorting, and downsizing to prepare for your move. Start with your closets and file cabinets,
    attics and basements.

  • Begin to think about items that you would like to take to your new home.

  • Start distributing things to family and friends including family mementos, photos and books. Save only those
    keepsakes that mean the most to you. Don’t ever throw away something that has special memories, is valuable or a
    family heirloom.

  • Get rid of anything that is not fixable, not wearable, out of date, or just taking up space.

  • Begin to use up canned and frozen foods.

  • Have draperies, rugs, and other linens cleaned before the move.

  • Set a move date.

  • Develop a customized floor plan with your move manager.

  • Arrange to transfer phone, cable, newspaper, address, and other utilities. (Your senior move manager can handle
    these for you).

  • Get a moving estimate and decide on a van line.

  • Remember the more items you discard before the move the less your moving bill will be.

  • Organize all medication, go through medicine cabinet and throw out anything that is expired. (Take medications with
    you the day of the move).

  • Arrange for overnight accommodations if needed the night of the move.

  • Let your move manager assist you with sorting and over seeing the packing with the van line.

  • Take a deep breathe and relax…have a nice lunch with friends and family.

  • Arrive at your new home the next afternoon to find everything in place….boxes all unpacked, trash discarded, beds
    made, pictures hung, and everything on your bedside table just as you had left it the day before!

  • Call today to set up your free, one hour, in home consultation!
