Trusted by Senior Move Managers and Families

Fuller Moving Services is frequently referred by NewLeaf Transitions, a senior move management resource in the Sacramento region, and we are a member of the National Association of Senior Specialty Move Managers (NASMM). If you work with a move manager or care coordinator, we will coordinate directly with them. We also proudly support Sunshine Retirement Living and the Gary Sinise Foundation.

“We recently worked with the Fuller Moving crew, moving my senior father out of a huge house, splitting the contents between three new locations. They handled the complex move quickly and efficiently with friendly faces.”

Why Senior Moves Need a Different Approach

A move at any age involves boxes, trucks and schedules. A senior move also involves decades of belongings, difficult decisions and, often, a family coordinating from several cities. Rushing it is the most common mistake. The best senior moves are planned early, broken into small steps and handled by people who are patient with questions and comfortable working at your pace.

That is how our team approaches every senior relocation. You get one point of contact, a written quote after we review what is moving, and crews who treat your home and your belongings with respect. We explain what will happen on each day, we check in before we move anything unexpected, and we do not leave until you are settled.

Common Senior Moves We Handle

Downsizing to a smaller home or apartment

Moving from a family home to a condo, townhome or apartment means fitting a lifetime of belongings into much less space. We help you decide what comes with you, what goes to family, what is donated and what is removed. On move day we place furniture to match your floor plan, so the new space is livable immediately.

Moving into independent living, assisted living or memory care

Retirement and assisted living communities often have move-in rules, elevator reservations and set time windows. Our crews are used to coordinating with community staff, protecting shared hallways and elevators, and keeping the move quiet and organized. Families tell us the most valuable part is having a single person to call.

Moving closer to children or grandchildren

When the destination is another city or state, we are a North American Van Lines agent and can provide door-to-door long-distance service with the same single point of contact. We can also store belongings if the new home is not ready.

Estate and family transitions

When a parent is moving out of a longtime home, or an estate needs to be cleared, we can pack, remove unwanted items and move the rest to one or several destinations. One family we helped split a large home between three new locations, one of them in the Bay Area.

How to Plan a Senior Move: A Simple Timeline

  1. 6–8 weeks before: Get a written estimate, confirm the move date with your new community or landlord, and start sorting the biggest rooms.
  2. 4–6 weeks before: Decide what goes to family, what is donated and what is removed. Arrange storage if the new home will not be ready.
  3. 2–4 weeks before: Schedule packing, notify utilities and the post office, and gather important papers, medications and valuables to carry with you.
  4. The week before: Confirm move-day logistics, parking and elevator reservations, and finish packing your essentials bag.
  5. Move day: Our crew arrives on time, protects floors and doorways, loads, moves and places furniture where you want it.
  6. After the move: We unpack, set up, hang art, remove packing materials and make your bed. Walk through with us and tell us what to adjust.

Moving Antiques, Pianos and Sentimental Items

The belongings that matter most are often the hardest to replace. Family photographs, antiques, heirlooms, a piano that has been in the family for generations: these get special packing, extra padding and the right equipment. Our specialty crews handle antiques, pianos, safes and oversized furniture, and we can build custom crates for the most delicate pieces.

“I stumbled on Fuller moving while searching for a moving company. I am a senior and disabled. From my 1st contact with Lyn on the phone to my contact with Barb, I felt respected, and understood.”
Karen G.

“We used Fuller to move an elderly relative from one assisted living to another. The move coordinator Barbara was easy to contact and helpful in setting up the moving date and answering questions. This local move went very smoothly.”
Megan E.

“I had to move my elderly neighbor out of her home and I chose Fuller moving services as Kevin was very professional, thorough, inventoried the property and sent me a detailed quote quickly. I 200% recommend Fuller Moving!”

Frequently Asked Questions

What are senior moving services?

Moves designed around the needs of older adults and their families, including downsizing help, packing, careful transport, setup and unpacking at the new home.

How is a senior move different from a standard move?

It is paced more slowly, involves more sorting and sentimental items, and usually includes setup such as hanging art, installing appliances and making the bed.

Do you work with retirement and assisted living communities?

Yes. We move seniors into independent living, assisted living and downsized homes across the Sacramento region, and we coordinate with community staff and move managers.

Can you help sort through decades of belongings?

Yes. Our downsizing assistance helps you decide what to keep, give to family, donate or remove, at your pace.

Do you offer storage if my new home is not ready?

Yes. We offer climate-controlled, monitored storage for a few weeks or several months.

Can you do a long-distance or out-of-state senior move?

Yes. We are a North American Van Lines agent and provide door-to-door long-distance moves anywhere in the country.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Fuller Moving Services holds MC # 107012, U.S. DOT # 070851 and CPUC # 189919.

How much notice do you need for a senior move?

The more the better. Two to four weeks is common for a local move, and longer for long-distance moves or when storage or downsizing is involved. Call us even if your move is sooner and we will do our best to fit it in.

Will the same people handle my move from start to finish?

You have one point of contact for planning, and your move is handled by our own in-house crews rather than day laborers.

Can family members who live far away be involved?

Yes. We are happy to communicate with adult children, a senior move manager or a care coordinator by phone or email so everyone stays informed.

What should I keep with me on moving day?

Medications, important papers, jewelry, a phone charger, some clothes and anything you will need that first night. We will help you set aside an essentials box.
