We know just thinking about moving house can be daunting, particularly when transitioning to a different environment such as an over 55s community, or when downsizing to a smaller living space. But Platinum Skies can help ease that worry and provide support for you each step of the way. We work hand-in-hand with Senior Move Partnership to make your move as easy and straightforward as possible. Senior Move offer a range of services designed to simplify the process and reduce the stress associated with such a significant step.

Help is at hand with downsizing and relocation

Many people moving to Platinum Skies are coming from larger homes that they’ve lived in for decades, and is often the place where they have raised their family. We understand that preparing to move can be a big step, especially if there are years of memories and belongings to sort through. Senior Move can help you to declutter and organise belongings, and help you sort through your possessions to decide what to keep, sell, donate, or discard. This stage is crucial for downsizing to a smaller home or apartment, but will ensure that all that’s important to you will have a place in your new home.

The Senior Move Partnership coordinator will work closely with you to understand your needs, preferences, and concerns. They’ll create a plan, to help make things smooth and stress-free for you.

Senior Move takes care of the entire packing and moving process, liaising with the team at Platinum Skies and movers, from supplying packing materials to safely transporting belongings to your new residence. They’ll help to ensure that fragile items and sentimental possessions are handled with the utmost care.

The team understand that moving home can be emotionally challenging too, especially if you are leaving a long-term family home. Senior Move Partnerships’ experts are trained to support you emotionally throughout the process, offering a compassionate and understanding approach.

By working in partnership with Senior Move, Platinum Skies aim to help you make your move as straightforward as possible, and ensure you have a helping hand ready to support you through the process.
