After living in the same home for decades, you have likely accumulated a lot more than just memories. When you are considering downsizing, the “stuff” can make it feel overwhelming. Fortunately, much of the work that goes into downsizing can be handled before moving day even arrives by effectively planning ahead.
Right-Size Now’s team of expert movers can handle any and all aspects of the moving process, from sorting and packing your belongings to developing a floor plan of your new home and more! There is so much that goes into planning before a move that many people do not realize. See below for a detailed list of the services Right-Size Now can provide.
Sorting
In our Sorting Package, our team will help you go through one area of your home at a time. We will work side-by-side with you to tag and process each item into categories: keep, donate, gift, sell, or trash.
KEEP
Items you wish to keep will be sorted by room and set aside. We also offer packing services to ensure a smooth transition into your new home.
DONATE
All designated donations will be prepared to be sent to appropriate charities.
GIFT
Items that you would like to share with family and friends will be tagged and carefully sent to the designated places.
SELL
We will help list and sell appropriate items on platforms such as Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist. We will help handle all transactions, ensuring all items are delivered in a timely fashion and payments are received.
TRASH
If and when appropriate, we will coordinate a large trash bin or dumpster for bulk trash removal.
Decluttering and organizing your belongings before packing for your move reduces stress and makes the transition smoother. It can also be rewarding to both you and the people around you.
Right-Size Now offers peace of mind for our clients so you are comfortable knowing that your possessions are well cared for.
Packing
Our team will carefully pack your belongings as though they were our own. After items are sorted, they will be packed, labeled and organized according to their destination:
NEW HOME
Boxes of items you choose to take to your new space will be carefully packed and labeled with the appropriate room and contents.
FAMILY MEMBERS/FRIENDS
Boxes will be labeled with the person’s name along with the items included.
CHARITY
These boxes will be itemized. You will sign off on all items before they are taken for donation to the charities of your choice.
You may purchase or rent boxes through us or on your own. In an attempt to be environmentally conscientious, we offer plastic bins for our moves – these can be rented by our clients and need to be returned to us within 15 days of the move.
Floor Plans
When you are moving to a new space, one of the best ways to save time and money is to only take the items that will fit. Why pay movers to move furniture that you are going to end up getting rid of anyway?
Using interactive software, we will design a custom floorplan of your new home so that you can easily visualize how your furniture will fit. By testing different setups for all rooms beforehand, we will save you the frustration of moving furniture that will not fit in your new space.
Inventories
Moving is a great time to take inventory of your valuable belongings, including important documents, collections, furnishings, jewelry, artwork, and more! Right-Size Now can provide a customized, catalogued inventory of your home that can be used for insurance purposes, personal records, or in case of fire or natural disaster.
