Senior Moving Services in Portland, OR

Moving Assistance for Seniors


Relocating your home after retirement can be extraordinarily difficult. Not only are many 60 and 70-year-olds downsizing their empty nests, but many retirees are also moving to assisted living or retirement communities where they can get the care they need.

At Northwest Grace Moving, we help seniors move throughout the Portland Metro area and into surrounding cities. We work with retirees, grandparents, and seniors who would like us to take care of their entire move. Our senior moving services include:

  • Assistance with downsizing and organizing
  • Packing and unpacking your valued items, with accurate labeling along the way
  • Moving every piece carefully from your home to assisted living, a new apartment, retirement community, senior living community, child’s home, or elsewhere
  • Re-arrangement of items within your home
  • Arrangement of items within a new home
  • Taking down or hanging items
  • Disposal and donation services

We understand how stressful any move can be both physically and emotionally. That is why we provide a senior moving manager when we serve you. He or she will supervise the move and be your point of contact during the entire process.

Contact Northwest Grace Moving for Downsizing or Relocation to Assisted Living Facilities


At Northwest Grace Moving, we understand how difficult and overwhelming a move can be. Get in touch with our team and let us help you navigate the complexity of moving to a senior care facility, work through your aging-in-place plan, or manage the process of reorganization and downsizing. Our compassionate specialists are here to help.

The Four Basic Steps of Senior Moving in Portland

There is no need for you, alone, to take on challenging tasks like moving into an assisted living community, relocating to a retirement facility, or downsizing within your own home. Northwest Grace Moving not only has the staff and specialized knowledge to help you, we understand the importance of planning out a move, step-by-step.

Step 1: Planning A Senior Relocation

The first step of any moving process is the planning stage. Not only do you need to go through the process of finding the right facility, apartment, house, or community, but you also have to choose the best people to assist you during the relocation.

Step 2: Organizing and Packing Treasured Items

Now that you have chosen where you will live, you have to go through your items, plan out what will fit your new lifestyle and what needs to go to storage or be donated.

At Northwest Grace Moving, we are happy to help with the organizational aspects of your move. Our team of specialists will work with you to measure your items, create a custom floor plan, and pack the items that fit in with this new season of life. Additionally, we will dispose of any possessions you’d like to donate or send to the landfill.

Step 3: Carefully Moving Each Item to the New Location

Once we have packed and labeled your treasured pieces, we will rapidly and carefully move your furniture, books, appliances, antiques, and other items to your new home. Our senior moving supervisor is always careful to understand the requirements of the assisted living facility or retirement community to which you are moving beforehand, so we fulfill your needs and the needs of the community.

Step 4: Unpacking and Placing Items with Care

Our team of specialists is then able to unpack and place each item according to your custom floor plan. We will hang mirrors and art, place heavy furniture just so, and unpack your antiques and other treasured items so that you don’t have to worry about them.

Northwest Grace Moving is proud to help seniors throughout the entire moving process. Our goal is to reduce your stress and make your move simple.

Trust Northwest Grace Moving With Every Step of Your Relocation

At Northwest Grace Moving, we provide more than simple transportation of your items. We are here to help you during every step of your move.

We Do The Packing For You

Packing treasured, heavy, or delicate items can be difficult and anxiety-inducing. You want to ensure the box or crate utilized is strong enough, that fragile items are appropriately marked and transported with care, that necessities are easy to access, and more. Additionally, the last thing anyone going through a move wants to do is pack unnecessary items that they’d prefer to dispose of, donate, sell, or give away.

At Northwest Grace Moving, we take care of the packing, labeling, and organization of your treasured items. Our team of caring, senior moving professionals, will go through the entire packing process with you. We understand that you have spent a lifetime collecting items that you value, and we treat each piece as if it were a family heirloom.

No Heavy Lifting

One of the most significant moving challenges encountered during a relocation is the sheer weight of items. Mirrors, framed art, bookshelves, boxes of books, kitchen appliances, and more can all weigh far more than you may have first imagined.

At Northwest Grace Moving, we do the lifting for you. Not only can we move items within your existing home, but we are also happy to transport and place each item during a more extensive relocation.

Crating Services Included

Utilize our full-service relocation concierge to crate your valuable antiques and other unique items properly. We are experts in transporting delicate items from one location to another, as well as properly packing fragile articles for storage.

Our senior moving supervisor will ensure your treasured pieces are placed precisely where you want them in your new home or storage space.

Assembly and Disassembly Services

Many seniors need appliances, furniture, and more disassembled for the move and re-assembled at their new location. Northwest Grace Moving will help you and your family members disassemble and/or assemble pieces in your new assisted living or senior living accommodations.

Let Us Unpack For You

Not only can packing your cherished items cause stress, but the unpacking process can also be difficult. There is no need to put yourself through the stress and difficulty of packing and unpacking your possessions during a move. The Northwest Grace Moving team will follow your custom floorplan and place each piece of furniture, lamp, appliance, or antique in its predefined location. Leave the packing and unpacking to us!

...Wouldn't Use Another Moving Company

Ian and the boys showed up on time and moved everything quickly, professionally and carefully. They even fixed my moveable bed that previous movers broke from my last move. Highly recommend and wouldn’t use any other moving company. Great job boys!

Oregon City to Meridian, Idaho...

We were so pleased with Northwest Grace when they moved us from Oregon City to Meridian, Idaho. They were professional. They treated us, our possessions, and each other with care and respect. They were careful with the walls as they moved our heavy furniture in and out - even our large upright piano. We highly recommend!

~ Michael B.

Made It All Very Smooth...

We moved about 3 weeks ago and NW Grace Moving made it all very smooth. They were very friendly and professional. They didn't waste time and moved quickly without sacrificing quality. They made sure all of our stuff was safe and secure. When we arrived, they did a great job of unloading and dropping it off at our new apt. One of them even helped us make our bed which was super helpful! Even though our place is only 800 sq feet, we had 3 movers which I definitely recommend. Would happily use them again!

~ Kelly B.

...I knew I was in good hands.

The Northwest Grace Moving team was fantastic!

We all know how stressful moving can be. They made it as smooth and stress-free as it could possibly be. Hiring movers wasn’t inexpensive, but it was well worth it.

From my first contact with Angie, I knew I was in good hands.
1. The communication was excellent - they provided clear instructions and information, and I was encouraged to ask questions. They were quick to respond, and reassured me they could provide what I needed (to wrap, disassemble, and reassemble my furniture).
2. The guys were professional and experienced. They were methodical, strategic, efficient, and strong. Kudos to Matt, Casey, Hunter, and Andrew!
I would recommend Northwest Grace moving to anyone in a second! And if I ever have to move again, they’ll be my first call.
