Your long-term home is full of meaningful personal belongings and memories that you and your family have accumulated over the years. That’s why it’s hard to fathom downsizing all of your belongings and move into a smaller space, even if it’s the right move to make in your retirement.

That’s where Fellowship’s professional moving services can come into play we’re here to help make your downsizing process and move as stress-free as possible, so you can focus on the excitement of starting the next chapter of your life!

Fellowship’s Professional Moving Resources

At Fellowship Senior Living, we provide free moving help to all future residents through our professional moving resources. These resources are here to help you:

  • Downsizing
  • Organizing your items before and during your move
  • Ensuring your transition is seamless.

We pay for the move when residents move in, we always offer them choices and allow them to select their mover, Nick Bottaro, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Fellowship Senior Living said. “The moving groups we work with will come in and assist with downsizing, where they will do things like put items up for sale and help eliminate items for you.”

Beyond physically packing and moving your items, our services also include providing guidance and clarity throughout the moving process. After all, moving out of your home that you’ve lived in for decades can be overwhelming and emotional.

“The biggest role our professional resources have is answering questions for those seniors that are in their homes and are overwhelmed with boxes and the moving process in general, Nick explained.

We can help you know what to expect in each stage of the moving process, provide assistance in determining what belongings will and will not fit in your new residence and so much more.

How We Aid the Emotional Side of Downsizing

The home that you have lived in for 50 or 60 years is more than just a house. This is where you watched your children grow up, where you have hosted countless family parties and accumulated more belongings than you probably need.

The thought of leaving all those memories behind and cutting down how much you own by half can be both emotional and overwhelming. That’s why our professional resources are specially trained to get past the initial woes of downsizing and help you process all the emotions you’re feeling during this time.

“The companies we work with are specifically designed to work with seniors and are very empathetic to the downsizing process,” Nick explained. “Our moving services really come in to help simplify, advise and de-stress the downsizing process for seniors.

By making the entire moving process easier, you can focus on the maintenance-free lifestyle awaiting you at your new home. Instead of worrying about house cleaning and yardwork, you’ll be able to do more of what you enjoy and focus on creating new happy and fulfilling memories.

Through our professional moving resources, it is our mission to help you transition to your new home without any regrets and welcome the next chapter of your life with open arms.
