SENIOR MOVING
Senior Moving Done with Patience and Care
We help older adults and their families move to a smaller home, assisted living, or closer to loved ones, one careful step at a time.
Leaving a home after decades is a big deal. There are memories in every room, more furniture than the new place can hold, and often family members in different states trying to help. For most seniors and their families, the hardest part is not the heavy lifting. It is the decisions, the timeline, and the worry that something will go wrong.
A & M Friendly Movers has been family-owned since 2015, and we treat your parents the way we would want ours treated. We slow down, answer questions, and keep the whole family in the loop. Our crews are background-checked, drug-tested W-2 employees, never subcontractors or day laborers, so you know exactly who is walking into the home. We can pack, move, set up the new space, and haul away the things that are not coming along.
Moving to assisted living, a smaller home, or near the kids? Tell us what the plan looks like and we will build the move around it. Request a free moving estimate or call 717-434-6711 to talk with an owner.

Why Families Choose A & M for Senior Moves
Patience Comes Standard
We never rush a senior move. If Mom wants to show us where the reading lamp goes, or Dad needs a break between rooms, that is fine with us. Our crew works at a steady, respectful pace and explains what is happening along the way, so nobody feels pushed out of their own home on moving day.
Easy Family Coordination
Adult children often help from a distance. We are glad to talk with the senior, their son or daughter, or both. We will plan around any move-in times or rules the new community has, work with your family’s schedule, and make sure everyone knows what is happening and when.
Crews You Can Trust
Every person on our crew is a background-checked, drug-tested W-2 employee of A & M Friendly Movers. We never send subcontractors or day laborers. When a stranger is coming into your parent’s home, that matters, and it is a big part of why families trust us with the people they love.
You Talk to an Owner
Our Owner’s Promise means you talk to an owner, not a call center. If anything is damaged, an owner calls you the same day, and claims are resolved in 60 to 90 days. Matthew and Amber run the company day to day, so there is always someone accountable.
Downsizing Made Simpler
A smaller home means some things will not make the trip. We can haul away furniture and household items that are not being kept, so the old house is ready for its next chapter. We do not take hazardous materials like paint, fuel, or chemicals, but we will talk through everything else.
No Rescheduling Fees, Ever
Senior moves change. A move-in date slides, a closing slips, or someone simply needs more time. We never charge a rescheduling fee, for any reason. If a closing slips at the last minute, we can hold your belongings overnight, locked on the truck, or move them into short-term storage.
What Our Senior Moving Service Includes
Careful Packing Help
We can pack the whole house or just the rooms that feel overwhelming. Full or partial packing is available, and we sell boxes and supplies. We take our time with dishes, keepsakes, and the things that matter most to your family.
A Steady Moving Day
Our crew pads and wraps furniture, takes apart beds and larger pieces when needed, and loads everything with care. We move at a pace that feels comfortable, and we keep the family informed from the first box to the last.
Setup at the New Place
We place furniture where it belongs, reassemble beds and tables, and can unpack so the new room feels like home on day one. If a piece does not fit the way you pictured, we will move it until it works.
Removing What Is Not Kept
Items that are not going to the new home can be hauled away through our junk removal service. If the family is not ready to decide, short or long-term storage is available, including climate-controlled storage, with pickup and delivery.
Senior Moving FAQs
Local moves are priced by the hour based on crew size, and long-distance moves come with a binding estimate, so the price quoted is the price paid. Request a free quote and an owner or our office will call you back within 15 minutes, between 8am and 8pm. A $100 deposit holds your date and is applied to the move. Local moves are billed hourly in 15-minute increments with a 3-hour minimum. The clock starts when our crew arrives at your home, not when we leave the office, and stops when we finish at your final destination. Disassembly, reassembly, and wrapping and padding all of your furniture are included at no additional cost.
Yes. Many of our senior moves go to assisted living or a smaller apartment. Let us know about any move-in windows or building rules ahead of time and we will plan around them. We can place furniture, reassemble the bed, and help set up the room so it feels familiar right away.
Absolutely. We are happy to talk by phone with the senior, adult children, or anyone the family wants involved. We will walk through the plan, answer questions, and keep everyone updated. Payment can be made by credit or debit card, personal check, or certified check, which makes it easy for family to help from a distance.
You have options. We can haul unwanted items away with our junk removal service, or move them into short or long-term storage if the family needs more time to decide. Climate-controlled storage is available. We cannot take hazardous materials like paint, propane, fuel, chemicals, or ammunition.
The crew arrives, walks through the home with you, and confirms what is going and what is staying. We pad and wrap furniture, take apart larger pieces if needed, load, and drive to the new home. There we place and reassemble everything. For local moves, payment is collected at the end of the day. Our moving day guide has more detail.
That happens often with senior moves, and it is never a problem. We never charge a rescheduling fee, for any reason. Just call us as soon as you know and we will find a new date. If a closing slips at the last minute, we can hold your things overnight, locked on the truck, or place them in storage.
