Moved interstate (NY-> FL) and everything went great. It involved use of their storage facility for ~ 2 months and I'm very happy with the outcome. No changes in the quoted cost. Easy to reach by phone. I made the right decision to use Slattery.

They were an amazing team from customer service, to movers. What I really liked was that there was a video call to see what you are taking on your move. Although I did not use the junk removal service , that was an option I was going to use. The movers were fast , professional and kind. They took care of our items like it was there’s. Just an great experience overall. I had recommendations from Facebook groups and my realtor in which we purchased our home. Moved from Tarrytown, Ny to Suffern, Ny.

Slattery Moving has done a wonderful job of moving all my stuff from New York all the way to Florida. They kept all the things safe and was very well organized with everything. I recommend this moving company to anyone those who are moving especially long distance. They have a good size truck that can fit any of your things. Chris was very responsive with all my communications and they were prompt with everything and delivered all my stuff on time as well as picked up my stuff on time. Very professional with everything. I definitely recommend.

Slattery was booked for my move date, but one of the owners still opted to stay on the phone with me for 30 minutes to provide expert advice on how to choose a mover. Very knowledgeable, experienced, and caring…and his insight was also very helpful!

Frequently Asked Questions About Senior Moving

What is senior move management?

Senior move management is coordinated moving support designed specifically for older adults and their families. It goes beyond heavy lifting to include planning conversations, space planning, packing options, moving, storage, and downsizing-related help, providing a structured, respectful transition.

Yes. We can help clients think through what is moving, what may go into storage, and what may need to be removed before or after the move. Our team handles the heavy lifting to clear out unwanted furniture, clutter, and estate items, simplifying the process.

Yes. Many senior moves involve family members coordinating details, sometimes from out of state. We act as your reliable local partner, emphasizing patient communication, clear next steps, and a calm process so the entire family stays informed.

Yes. Packing and storage are often important parts of senior moves, especially when the new space is smaller or the family needs more time to make decisions about heirlooms and furniture. We offer flexible packing services and secure containerized storage to bridge any gaps.

We coordinate directly with the property management of the independent living, assisted living, or 55+ community. We manage the necessary Certificates of Insurance (COI), reserve elevators, adhere to approved moving hours, and ensure the final room is set up exactly to the resident’s comfort and safety needs.

The cost is based on the volume of items, access conditions, and the specific services you require (such as packing or junk removal). After a thorough consultation and inventory review, we provide a flat-rate Guaranteed Quote… no surprises.
