Sorting, Donating, and Downsizing Help for Seniors

At Rose’s Daughters, we understand that homes that took a lifetime to build cannot be downsized or rightsized in a day–or even a single weekend. The process of downsizing the home of a loved one who has lived in the same place for 20 or even 50 years can be a time-consuming and emotional process, and not every family has the resources to undertake every step of that process on their own. That’s where the experienced and compassionate Move Managers at Rose’s Daughters can help. 

Certified by the National Association of Specialty Move Managers (NASMM), Rose’s Daughters boasts over 20 years of experience helping older adults and their families sort through and organize belongings for downsizing. We have what it takes to work through the process of getting ready for a move–or just get things in a little better shape–with the experience necessary to get the job done with minimal stress.

We take care to go through each belonging with older adults and their families so ensure that everything is sorted appropriately into categories of what to keep, give to family or friends, donate to worthy causes, take with or let go. Our main goal is to help project plan and organize the large-scale task of downsizing an entire life’s worth of homegoods and memories, and we are dedicated to being there for you and your family every step of the way.

Your Move Manager can help take care of a variety of downsizing tasks, including:

• Making and then helping to facilitate an organized plan to sort through belongings
• Taking donations to appropriate local charities and providing a tax-deductible receipt
• Ordering dumpsters or similar for larger cleanouts
• Organizing estate sales
• Scheduling junk removal services for larger items like furniture or appliances
• Packing and labeling “Keep” items for the move
  

Why Rose’s Daughters?

The Move Managers at Rose’s Daughters understand that downsizing is a difficult process for everyone involved. We know that the items that make up your home are not just objects, they are precious memories–pieces of who you are, were, and hope to be. We approach every project with a personalized touch, focusing on respect and compassion for our clients and their families as they help navigate this often-difficult transition process.
