Senior Moving Services

Clutch Moving Company moves older adults from long-time homes to smaller houses, senior apartments, assisted living units, and care communities. Our senior movers handle organizing, packing, and transport, and they work at a pace the person moving is comfortable with. If you are an adult child arranging the move from another state, you can set the whole job up by phone.

We have moved more than 3,000 families since 2016. A senior move is not the same as a standard household move. There is usually less space at the other end, more sorting to do before anything gets boxed, and more than one person involved in the decisions. We plan for that ahead of move day instead of on it.

Every senior move is quoted from what you actually need, so you can hand us the whole job or only the parts you would rather not do yourself.

• Organizing rooms before packing starts
• Packing a full home or only the rooms you choose
• Loading, transporting, and unloading
• Moving items into or out of a storage unit
• Putting furniture back together at the new residence

If packing is the part you want off your plate, add our packing service to the move.

• Downsizing from a house into a smaller home or apartment
• Moving into an independent living community, assisted living, or a care community
• Moving out of state to be near family, handled through our long-distance moving service on a dedicated truck
• Splitting a household between a new residence and a storage unit
• Clearing a family home that is going on the market, which can be paired with our home staging service

For most families, this is the real question, because the move happens in a parent’s home and often while they are still living in it.

Every Clutch Moving Company employee is screened with a background check before being hired. Each one completes a two-week training period before handling a client’s belongings. We do not hire day laborers. Our movers are paid above the industry average, which keeps turnover low, so the mover carrying a china cabinet down the front steps has done it many times before.

Clutch Moving Company operates under California license T019689.

Basic valuation protection is included at no extra cost when you book, and it covers 60 cents per pound per item. That figure matters on a senior move, because the pieces that hold the most meaning are often light. A jewelry box, a framed photograph, or a small antique table weighs very little, so basic coverage pays very little.

For heirlooms, antiques, and anything worth more than its weight suggests, Baker’s International offers extended valuation coverage. You can reach them at www.bakerintl.com or 1-800-356-0099. Sort out coverage before move day rather than after.
