Appleby Moving & Storage

Moving services / Senior moving

Senior moving and downsizing

Moving a parent into a condo, an apartment or a retirement residence. We go at their pace, pack the fragile things by hand and store what won’t fit yet.

A move that respects forty years in one house

Downsizing moves take longer than the truck ride. Families are sorting what goes to the new place, what goes to the kids and what gets stored. We plan the day around that, and we can split one house into two or three drop-offs.

China, crystal and antiques get wrapped by hand. If the new suite is smaller, furniture can wait in our Burlington storage for a few weeks or a few months while everyone decides.

Questions

What people ask

Can you move my parent into a retirement residence?

Yes. We coordinate with the residence on elevator times and the move-in window, and set up the suite so it’s ready to live in.

Can you store furniture that doesn't fit the new place?

Yes. It stays at our Burlington storage for as long as the family needs to decide.

Can one move go to more than one address?

Yes. Tell us every stop when you ask for a quote and we’ll price it as one move.
