Frequently Asked Questions

Moving these days is tricky. With many families separated by distance, it’s hard to find the time and help to complete your move. And even for those who can make the move on their own, My Move Project’s resources can simplify and streamline the process. Our experience and knowledge should provide every client with an efficient and coordinated process.

No, we aren’t. We don’t own a truck or a staff for heavy lifting. We will help interview and hire the companies needed for the move, ensuring they understand the unique needs of a senior move.

We will be there through every step of the move, from the initial consultation through packing and unpacking. Traditional movers don’t always understand the needs of a senior move, and will often outsource the needs to day laborers who also don’t understand those special needs. Traditional movers do not offer many of the services we offer.

Every move is different, so this will be based around your needs. You will discuss and plan your needs with us, which will help streamline the process so you can get your move over with as soon as possible. The key to ensuring a successful and efficient move is in the preparation. That is why we plan to spend more time before the move sorting, organizing, disposing & donating of your unwanted items, meeting with the new community staff to learn their move-in rules and access instructions, preparing your new home, and other small tasks to make move day successful.

We’ll first start by discussing your plan and timeline and scheduling your move. Go to our Contact Us page to reach out directly or use our calendar feature to schedule a call. The initial consultations come at no cost to the client.

For planning purposes, the more time the better. But we do understand that not every situation has this luxury, so we can adapt and accommodate to your situation if need be.

For items you don’t want to bring we can help you arrange an estate sale, organize charitable pickup, or organize junk-hauling. This is where we add considerable value to the move process.

Nothing! When we are done, your bed will be made, dishes put away, and everything will have a place in your new home. All that you’ll need to do is relax and enjoy your space. This may not be completed on moving day if you are completing a large move, but we will do it for you as well as removing all packing paper and cardboard.

Our Move Coordinator will over see the packers, and make sure that everything you selected to get taken will betaken, and what you don’t want to be taken will be left behind. Make sure you pack an overnight bag before they start to pack your home, so you can ensure we don’t pack your pajamas and toothbrush. Since you spend every night in your own bed, we want to make sure you’re not missing anything necessary.

You can, but it’s not necessary. We offer judgement-free consultations and we’d like to see your everyday space to get a sense of what you use so we can get a feel of what you’re likely bringing with you.

That’s okay! Please don’t hesitate to tell us and add whatever additional services you need to your moving contract. We’re here to help.

Yes! Any utilities you need changing, such as the telephone, cable TV, or change of address cards. We are experienced in making these transitions efficiently.
