Specialist Senior Relocation Services
At Christchurch Movers, we understand that moving elderly loved ones or transitioning to a rest home requires exceptional care and sensitivity. Our dedicated team specialises in making these important life transitions as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Rest Home Moving Solutions
We offer a personalised moving experience, including a dedicated coordinator, customised timelines, full packing and unpacking services, furniture arrangement, and disposal or donation of unwanted items.
Our Senior Moving Process
1. Initial Consultation
We meet with family members and facility staff to assess needs, discuss timelines, and create a detailed moving plan with cost estimates.
2. Pre-Move Organisation
Our team assists with downsizing assistance, room planning, inventory creation, family heirloom cataloging, and document organisation.
3. Moving Day Services
We carefully pack personal items, label everything for easy unpacking, transport medical equipment safely, pack down and set up the new space, including furniture assembly and picture hanging.
Specialised Care and Attention
Our team prioritises respectful communication, patience, and attention to emotional needs while keeping families informed throughout the process. We are trained in senior sensitivity, dementia awareness, safe handling procedures, medical equipment moving and privacy protection.
