Frequently Asked Questions
What is a senior move manager?
A Senior Move Manager (SMM) is a specialist who coordinates all aspects of a senior relocation — sorting, downsizing, packing, moving, and unpacking. They're certified by the National Association of Senior & Specialty Move Managers (NASMM) and provide more support than a standard mover.
Can moving companies help with downsizing?
Some do, but it's typically not a standard service. Look for companies that partner with senior move managers, estate sale companies, or donation services. Goodwill and Habitat for Humanity both offer free furniture pickup in most FL cities.
Is there financial assistance for senior moves in Florida?
Florida's SHINE program (through DOEA) can help connect seniors with relocation resources. Some assisted living facilities offer move-in coordination as part of their intake process. VA benefits may cover some relocation costs for eligible veterans.
