Whether you are an older adult contemplating a move, or an adult child responsible for moving your parents to a senior living facility, the tasks involved in managing this transition can be overwhelming, time consuming and emotionally draining. Concerns such as memory loss and health challenges tend to increase anxiety levels.
Along with organizational skills and move expertise, Move Elders With Ease staff members understand the aging process and its many ramifications. We bring a calm, capable and steady presence to your transition experience.
Move Elders With Ease is a full-service company. We begin with a free in-home consultation to discuss your unique situation. After the consultation, Move Elders With Ease will provide you with a written cost estimate dependent upon the services you select.
Furniture layout:
Whether you are downsizing from a larger home to a smaller residence, or staying in your current home, the appropriate layout of furniture can make a big difference in your ease of living. Utilizing a professional floor-planning tool, Move Elders With Ease determines the best arrangement of your favorite furniture for increased mobility, safety and ease of use. We will -
- Measure furniture
- Measure new space
- Take photos
- Locate phone, electric and cable utilities
- Determine furniture layout
Move planning and decluttering:
Whether you have been in your current home for 35 years or 18 months, you likely possess more belongings than you can comfortably store in your new residence. Move Elders With Ease gently guides you as you decide -
- what to keep (options for saving treasured belongings)
- what to sell
- what to donate
- what to toss
Packing and move management:
Move Elders With Ease works with several reputable moving companies in the Triangle area. If desired, we will recommend two or three of these for you to interview, and will assist you in the interview process if you wish. The final selection is your decision.
We will coordinate your move –
- scheduling the move date
- ordering delivery of packing boxes
- packing and labeling the “soft” belongings and clothing
- overseeing the “breakable” packing by moving company staff
- coordinating the move with the senior facility
- managing the actual move on the scheduled date
- assisting you with transfer of utilities and change of address announcements
In other words, we handle all the details so you can relax.
Cleaning and repair oversight of prior residence:
Move Elders With Ease oversees a contracted residential cleaning company to thoroughly clean your prior home, preparing it for resale. Additionally, if you and your realtor determine that certain repairs are immediately required, Move Elders With Ease is happy to recommend contractors and provide project management services, overseeing those hired to complete the repair work. This service is especially beneficial for adult children residing outside the Triangle area.
