Senior moving services in Albany, NY

A senior move is rarely just a move. It's usually a house of forty years going into an apartment of four rooms, with family in three time zones trying to help.

In Albany

What this job is like here

The Capital Region has a deep bench of retirement and assisted-living communities across Albany, Colonie, Delmar and Clifton Park, and most have their own move-in windows and elevator rules. We plan the move around the community's calendar first.

Worth knowing: A lot of Capital Region communities only allow move-ins on weekday daytime hours. That shapes your date more than anything else will.

What's included

  • Downsizing help: working out what fits the new floor plan and what doesn't
  • Packing, moving, unpacking and setting up the new place the same day
  • Beds made and the bathroom working before we leave
  • Coordination with retirement and assisted-living community move-in rules
  • Donation, sale and disposal routing for whatever stays behind

How it runs

Three steps, start to finish

Measure the new place

The floor plan decides what comes. Doing this first prevents a truck of furniture with nowhere to go.

Sort with the family

Keep, gift, donate, sell, discard. Decided before the boxes, not during.

Move and set up

One day where we can, finishing with an apartment that's livable instead of stacked with boxes.

This is probably you if

  • A parent is moving into a retirement or assisted-living community
  • A long-time family home is being downsized
  • Family members are coordinating this from out of town

Questions

Senior Moving FAQ

Yes. Most communities have set move-in hours, an elevator to reserve and a certificate of insurance to file. Send us their packet and we'll handle it.

We sort it into donate, sell and discard, and we can haul the discard side off on the same job. See estate cleanouts.

Yes. A lot of these get arranged by an adult child in another state. Photos, a video walkthrough and a phone call are usually enough for us to scope it.
