Why Senior Moves Are Different
A senior move is not just a regular move with older clients. It is often a major life transition - downsizing from a family home of 30 or 40 years, moving into an assisted living facility, or relocating closer to family after losing a spouse. These moves carry emotional weight that a standard residential move does not.
Our crews understand that. We move at the client's pace, we handle belongings with extra care, and we communicate clearly every step of the way. Many of our senior moves are coordinated with adult children who may not live locally, and we are comfortable being the point of contact on move day.
What We Handle
Our Approach
We walk through the home with the client or family member to understand what is involved.
We help identify what is moving, what is being donated, and what needs special handling.
Full-service packing available through our Princess Packing service, including fragile items and heirlooms.
Patient, experienced crew, floor protection, and careful furniture placement in the new home.
We can unpack boxes and set up the new space so it feels like home on day one.
Senior moves are some of the most important moves we do. When a family trusts us with their parent or grandparent's move, we take that seriously. Learn more about our Princess Packing service and our full residential moving options.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a senior move cost in Connecticut?
Senior moving costs depend on the size of the current home, how much is being moved versus donated or discarded, and the distance to the new location. Most senior moves in Hartford County run between $800 and $2,500 for a local move. We provide free in-home estimates and we are happy to walk through the process with the client or their family.
Do you help with downsizing before the move?
We help identify what is moving and what is not, and we can coordinate with local donation services. For packing, we offer our Princess Packing service which handles everything from wrapping dishes to boxing up an entire home. We do not offer junk removal, but we can recommend local services that do.
Can you coordinate with my parent's assisted living facility?
Yes. We regularly coordinate with assisted living facilities, retirement communities, and nursing homes on timing, elevator reservations, loading dock access, and room setup. We handle the logistics so the family can focus on their loved one.
How do you handle fragile heirlooms and antiques?
Antiques, heirlooms, and sentimental items get extra attention. We use specialty wrapping, custom padding, and careful handling for anything that cannot be replaced. If an item needs special equipment like a piano board or crate, we plan for that in advance.
