Testimonials for Our Moving Services for Seniors

Made My New Space A Home

Thank you for working with me.  Your input, design ideas and designing the floor plan were greatly appreciated.  Moving from my house to a smaller suite demanded major downsizing, not always easy.  Each time you (Paula), Belinda, Jody and Lisa were at my house I felt energized that this move was possible.  You have very special ladies working with you.

Paula, you and your team are exceptional in reassuring your clients, through example, that a move can be completed with calmness and patience.  The professionalism, plus understanding shown, was a special gift.  I have shared with various friends, your company, plus the good working relationship you have with clients.  Most had not heard of this service and were so glad to know about it.

Coming into my new abode that evening was both suspenseful and exciting.  My new place was complete, with artwork exactly where I had hoped or better, and everything set up in an elegant and comfortable manner.  I realize that the hard work and thoughtfulness of each of you in those few hours made my new space a home! That evening we all were so delighted and pleased, exploring my beautiful new home.

Please share with everyone involved how pleased I am - from the first day to the completion of the move.  I couldn't have managed without your professional service, plus the understanding that your clients are making major lifestyle changes.

With sincere thanks,

Catrina

PS:  I loved the service so much I had them move me again six month later, into a bigger suite ... another great experience ...

Done In A Day

A few months ago I had the pleasure of being moved from my home to Westwood Retirement Resort by "Moving Solutions for Seniors".  What a wonderful experience it was.  They are an awesome team; very caring, careful with your precious belongings, and have everything put in place with pictures hung.  My new home was all done in a day.  This team is genuinely on your side when you need to move.  Exemplary!

Just Like Home Again

We have used the services of Paula and her team on several occasions over the last few years to assist elderly family members with moves.  Each time, after communicating any specific wishes of the individuals involved, we were able to leave the details of the move to Paula.  She and her team:

  • assessed floor space of new dwellings and made recommendations as to furniture placement (floor plan),
  • made all necessary arrangements for movers,
  • supervised the move on moving day,
  • placed furniture, pictures and other belongings in the new accommodation,
  • identified articles suitable for consignment and transferred them to the appropriate outlet, and made arrangements with local charities to take whatever was left over.

We found that Paula had a good working relationship with the assisted living facilities in question and was able to match moves to limited elevator availability.

Sometimes it is not easy to deal with elderly seniors and their families about moves that often have an emotional impact.  We found, without fail, that Paula and her team exercised tact and compassion, doing whatever they could to smooth the way.  I recall one instance, in particular, when my father's face lit up as he walked through the door of the new assisted living suite and found how well they had done their job.  It was just like home again.

We remain grateful for all their assistance.

Condo Clean Out

So glad to have found your services.  Coming out of province to clean out my mother in laws condo was overwhelming.  Your one stop service covered all our needs.  Having you knowing the different resources in town and managing it all for us was a wonderful relief.

Short Notice Move

It is now over a month since we moved to our new home. I can’t begin to tell you how Moving Solutions For Seniors made our move a real pleasure.  Our home sold in 5 days and since we had only a very short time to re-locate, Moving Solutions for Seniors came to our rescue almost the next day, arriving on the scene with large packing boxes, paper, and a staff who knew exactly how to organize everything. We had been in our home 10 years, moved only twice since arriving in Kelowna so had accumulated a great deal. We wanted to give away many things to charities and you helped us with that, along with transporting anything that we no longer needed.  Paula came every day and was so helpful and cheerful. Since our suite was vacant, you measured the rooms and helped us to fit in all our furniture.  Our moving day, we left our home at 8 a.m. and arrived at our new home at 4 p.m.  We couldn’t believe what a wonderful job they had done. Every piece of furniture was in place, everything was unpacked, beds made, food in the frig and freezer, every ornament and book in place and some pictures already hanging. The bouquets of tulips were lovely; there was not a box or scrap of paper anywhere.   They came back the next day to help us hang the rest of the pictures. Thank you and your wonderful staff for making our move so pleasant.

We Cannot Thank You Enough

Paula, My wife, Irene Claggett and I would like to thank you for sending us a beautiful plant last week.  We have lived at Missionwood for just over a month and are beginning to settle in. It certainly is a lifestyle change for us.

We want to express our thanks and appreciation for all of your assistance with our move from 1020 Lanfranco to Missionwood. While it was the most difficult move either of us has experienced because of radical downsizing, you and your colleagues did a fantastic job in preparing for, and carrying out the move. It's amazing how much "stuff" one accumulates over the years. Your professionalism and expertise were certainly noted throughout the moving process, hastened somewhat when our townhouse sold in one day.

Moving day was something else. In less than an hour and a half, the furniture, clothing and personal effects were gone, leaving Irene and me to tidy up the house. Less than six hours later, the telephone rang and we were informed that our new apartment at Missionwood was now ready. We were totally amazed upon our arrival to see the apartment totally furnished, cupboards filled, TV music playing, computer set up and everything in sparkling order. Not an empty cardboard box to be seen. We have never experienced such a service.  Paula, your company, and their professionalism is special. We cannot thank you enough.

Needless to say, we rave about your Moving Solutions service to one and all.

Thanks again, Irene and Fred
