What is Move Management? A Simple Solution for Life’s Biggest Transitions

Relocation is a big transition for anyone. Packing up your life and saying goodbye to things and places that hold fond memories is no easy feat, either emotionally or logistically. As such, move management services can be a huge relief. These companies are committed to helping to simplify the moving process, making it easier and less stressful.

Let’s Get Moving! is a perfect example of a trusted move management company making an impact. Located in Nashville and Middle Tennessee, we have specialized in senior transitions and downsizing in the area for 20 years. And we’re excited to announce that we’re expanding our offerings with new white-glove move management services tailored to luxury homes and offices as well.

What Exactly Is Move Management?

In general, move management is the process of planning, organizing, and executing the relocation of a business, organization, or individual from one location to another. While more commonly used in corporate, commercial, educational, healthcare, and government settings, move management services are wildly growing in popularity for residential moves, especially large or complex ones for busy individuals and families.

Here’s what you can typically expect from move management services:

  • Consultation and planning to see how to partner together best.
  • Layout design for furniture placement in your new space.
  • Sorting and rightsizing so you don’t pack anything that won’t be needed in the new space.
  • Move day management to ensure your home and belongings are protected throughout the process. 
  • Packing, unpacking, and organizing to ensure your belongings are safe and sound and placed appropriately upon arrival.
  • Estate distribution, whether to family members, friends, or charitable organizations, according to your wishes.

Who Uses Move Management?

While move management can make relocation easier for anyone, for some, the services are even more beneficial.

Seniors

Seniors and older adults benefit greatly from move management assistance with downsizing or transitioning to senior living. Move management services can take on detailed logistics, like organizing belongings or moving large items. This makes the weight of a big life decision a bit lighter for those anxious about the move. And you can feel particularly confident with us as senior move management has been a specialty area of ours for 20 years! 

Move management can also alleviate stress for the adult children of aging parents. If the children can’t be present to help their parents with the move, a move management company can step in to make the transition possible. Or, even when present, move management allows the family the freedom to focus on their loved one during the move, instead of the logistics.

Corporate Clients

Companies that are relocating offices will definitely gain from move management services. If a business is moving across the country or needs to pack up desks and chairs in bulk, a move management service can assist with determining the best plan of action. Minimizing downtime is key to a successful office move, and our professional move management team ensures a seamless transition that takes the burden off your internal team. 

Luxury Home Relocation

Moving between luxury homes is another complex task that move management companies can make simple. Move management can professionally handle precious or fragile items so that nothing is lost or broken in the move. For example, we work with experts in art, high-value decor, instruments, and more to ensure these items are handled with the utmost care. Luxury home relocation also sometimes involves clients of a confidential and high-profile nature, and discretion is of the utmost importance.

Busy Families

You don’t have to make a huge life change or own a luxury home to use move management services. Families needing help with moving can opt for move management services to relieve stress. The variety of services provided by move management companies makes the biggest difference for families in a time of chaos, including laying out your furniture during your move or assistance with unpacking.
