Senior Moving Tips
- Start planning early: It is never too early to start planning for a move. Even if you do not have a moving date, you should start sorting your belongings and figuring out what you wish to bring to your new place, give to friends and family, and donate. Take the time to make plans and set aside time every day for preparation.
- Figure out what services you need: Every move is different, so you need to know if your mover can meet your needs. Some items require special equipment and training to complete. If you have large bulky items or require extra assistance like packing services, figure out if your mover has the expertise to meet your needs.
- Find the right moving company: Find out how long your mover has been in business; the most reliable movers stay in business by providing consistently good service over many years. Visit third party websites like the Better Business Bureau and Angie’s List to learn what real customers have to say.
- Don’t be afraid to ask for help: There is nothing wrong with asking for help. It is good to find a friend or family member to help you throughout the process. Your loved ones will be happy to provide support. Make sure you do not wait to the last minute, so they have time to make accommodations for helping you.

Where do I Get Packing Supplies?
There’s a lot of packing supplies needed to optimize your moving timeline, from belts to bubble wrap to dollies, moving blankets, moving boxes, totes, and more! Be sure to start getting these items together early on if you are packing yourself.
First, check to see if your friends and family have any supplies left over from a recent move. After this, check in with your movers. Typically, moving companies will sell all the packing supplies you could need at a great price.
