When it's time to move to a smaller home ... who will help with the downsizing?
Move - Transition - Downsizing
You've decided it's time to start thinking about moving! Or you need to help your parents find a safer home environment!
Moving is one of the most stressful times in our lives! Getting married, starting a family and changing careers are the other life events that increase stress levels!
For senior adults, moving not only increases stress, but also creates anxiety and is often physically overwhelming! 
Not knowing what is available in living arrangments, where to start, who to turn to and not wanting to be a burden on your family only increases these concerns.
Deciding to move to a senior community or a smaller home is a decision that most us will have to make in our lifetime ... whether for ourselves looking forward to retirement or our aging parents when they can no longer be on their own.
Who will be there to help you downsize when you need to move to a smaller home! 
A Certified Senior Move Manager will be able to help you and your family get ready for the big day! We'll help smooth the bumps along the way, listen with compassion and talk about how these changes will affect you.
We will manage the process by:
-
Developing a Move Plan, based on what you feel you need, to help ensure nothing is forgotten
-
Sorting through decades of possessions with you and helping you decide what to take with you, give away to family or friends, sell or give to a charitable organization
-
Getting items to the people who are not close by, take items to a charity of your choice, bring items for the garbage to the curb or take them to be environmentally recycled
-
Space planning your new home with floor plans of what furniture you'd like to take and ensure it will fit
-
Photographing your favourite areas in your home to recreate them in your new space
-
Packing your precious possessions
-
Unpacking them in your new home and getting you settled with your favourite cup of tea at the end of the day! 
-
We take away all the packing boxes and paper
-
Notifying the important people of your move and new contact information including family, friends, physicians, pharmacist, utility services, religious and other organizations you belong to!
We will coordinate with your movers, building managers and other services so that you don't need to worry about everything getting done on time! And nothing is left to be overlooked!
With a Certified Senior Move Manager, there is only one person for everyone involved to contact! One phone number! And you have your comprehensive Moving Kit in a customized binder for you to be able to review the progress and put your notes in so nothing gets misplaced on sticky notes!
On your moving day, we will oversee all the details ... you just pick up your coat in your old house and move into your new home!
Coordinating a move from a long distance or just don't have the time?
Sometimes adult children can't be in the same place as their parents and feel that coordinating the move long distance is overwhelming and too time consuming!
As Certified Senior Move Managers we'll be able to step in and help you feel less stressed about not being able to help as much as you would like.
We've moved our own families and understand the need to ask for help! Let us be that help that you need!
We will meet with you, either in person or on the phone, and thoroughly go over each step with you and create a master plan and timeline to ensure that the move of your parents is as stressfree as possible.
We'll stay in touch with you regularly and keep you udpated on the progress.
This will save you worry about not having enough time to get things done, save on unnecessary travel and let you concentrate on your own family! Then when moving day is here, you'll be able to come and help your parents with the transition and not worry about the move! After all, it's a life change and they need all the support they can get from you by their side, not running around worrying about the physical move!
