A senior move manager (SMM) is a professional who specializes in assisting older adults and their families with the emotional and physical aspects of downsizing, relocation, and/or "aging in place." Your SMM can help you and your loved one create a moving or age in place plan, downsize and organize effectively, arrange for disposal of items that are no longer needed as well as storage, hire a moving company, set up the new home, and other services such as cleaning, shopping, and finding a realtor.

Most of all, a senior move manager can help you reduce stress and save money; plus, all aspects of the move are covered by a licensed, dedicated professional who is trained to make the transition less difficult.
