Senior Downsizing & Move Management
Support from Start to Settled.
We provide thoughtful, full-service senior downsizing support — from sorting and decluttering to packing, donations, disposal, move coordination, and settling into your new home.
Every detail is handled with clarity, care, and respect, making the transition feel calmer and more manageable from beginning to end.

Investment
Most full-service downsizing and transition projects range from $4,800–$12,000+, depending on the size of the home, timeline, and level of support needed.
À la carte services, such as packing, unpacking, or sorting-only support, are also available.
Moving companies, supplies, and third-party vendor costs are separate.
Get Started
Every Fresh Start relationship begins with a complimentary consultation.
We start by listening — learning your home, your priorities, and what support would be most helpful.
Wherever you are in the process, our role is to bring calm, clarity, and thoughtful support into your home.
