Moving To Aged Residential Care

We are organisers & managers for senior citizens when circumstance change.

Perhaps you have an elderly family member who will benefit from living in a supportive environment, with specialist care tailored for each person. At Senior Moving Company, we support seniors by delivering the belongings they need and want to their new room.

Per their instructions, treasured items go to family and friends first. Then, we organise and manage any furniture and household contents that are no longer needed. In most cases, we arrange the sale of items (100% of the proceeds goes to the senior person’s account) and organise donations of belongings to charity. Other items are then sorted and distributed responsibly.

We can also clean and prepare the current house/apartment if requested, and prepare it for sale. We work with the family, the Power of Attorney (where required), retirement village managers, clinical service directors, utility providers, etc., to help make this change easier.

Gift to family & friends

If required, we make delivery arrangements locally, around New Zealand or overseas. For further details, please see Gift to Family and Friends.

Selling items

We may be able to sell certain items on behalf. We never take a commission on the sale of your goods – you just pay us for our time. Go to our Declutter & Downsize page for details.


Donating to Charity

Donating to charity is a popular option. The Senior Moving Company specialises in assisting people to sort through surplus belongings. Donate to the charities of your choice. For further details, please see Donating to Charity.

Cleaning your Current Home

We clean and tidy your home after your furniture and household contents have been removed. We offer two options – a light clean and a full clean. If you are selling your property, we highly recommend the full clean inside – this gives a much more favourable impression to a prospective buyer! Please see  Cleaning your Present Home.

Preparing your Current Home for Sale

Our experienced specialists prepare your home to a high level of presentation for the market. This preparation can greatly increase the chances of selling your home at a higher price. See our Home Sell Preparation Programme.

“I recently met Anita when a client was about to put her home of many years up for sale. Prior to photography taking place, she engaged Anita to help declutter, sort and clear her home. I know most people will feel uncomfortable with someone assisting with such a personal process of going through the things collected on life’s journey and then deciding what to keep and what can go, but Anita has just the right balance of no-nonsense and compassion! This along with a good dose of humour meant the job got done easily and efficiently. My client was very happy and relieved to have what was perceived as a huge job, sorted in no time.” (Linda Reid, Barfoot & Thompson Real Estate, Auckland 2021)
