There are those who like the good life, and there are those who can afford the good life. For those who can afford it there is a special service provided… In the Flatrate moving system VIP moving is meant for those who want to enjoy a moveless move, the most enjoyable and restful move you will ever experience. This service is made especially for the elderly and those who can afford such a luxurious service.

This service specializes in moving expensive furniture such as expensive pictures, collections.

There are many other things which require extra care such as pottery and other expensive artwork. Many people also own animals which they cannot take with them on their move, our service is specialized to deal with situations like this one. A popular issue many people have to deal with in luxury moving is the wine cellar. This is a known issue to us and is taken care by the professionals to the best of their and our ability. Another issue is pets. Many people make their move on days that to them are very pressuring and can not carry their pets around with them, this is a part of moving and we take care of it to the best of our ability.

The Flatrate VIP moving group specializes in moving pianos as well as antiques and fine furnishings. Being able to move these things correctly requires long and unique training, which many movers today do not have. This ability alone, sets our movers well above the majority of movers when it comes to skills and service. This is especially true with customers who have used us after having had a bad experience with other moving companies when they have moved before. Our movers experience with caring about customer things and walking the extra mile, making moving day a pleasant and enjoyable experience.

The most important consideration when selecting a mover is that you are provided with a good crew of well-trained men on moving day! The worst thing that can happen on moving day is to have a poor crew show up to do your job. Companies who provide VIP Moving have only the finest professional moving personnel all uniformed who have been trained to use all of our moving techniques. We consider the moving profession to be a skilled labor trade requiring professional people well versed in the proper techniques for moving furniture efficiently, without damage this is because we are trusted with some peoples most prized possessions and are responsible for them. Some movers we know of seem to look at moving as an unskilled labor trade, so that explains why they use a lot of inexperienced, day labor type of help who arrive at a customer’s job site having a ragtag appearance, without proper skills. Consequently their customers many times have their job done poorly, slowly and with a good chance for damages while our jobs are being done efficiently and well with a minimum chance of damages. We believe that skilled men using good equipment with good techniques will always do the best job. That’s why our customers are so satisfied with our services.

I was moving from Miami to ny. I’m a very busy person so i was looking for a moving company that does it all, a company that would do the move for me without me having to intervene. I was basically looking for a company that by many people doesn’t exist. I wanted to move without moving. Ive had to move many times over the past few years because of my job, so i have a basic idea of what a good moving company has to be like and what it shouldn’t be like.Ive had different experiences with different companies some were good and some were not.

But this time i didn’t want to bother with the move I wanted it to go as smoothly as possible. About a month before my move I called up a friend of mine nd asked him if he knows any luxury/elite moving companies, that would do the job well, so well that i wont even feel that I’m moving. To my surprise his answer was positive. He immediately said Flatrate moving. I asked him how do u know about them so he told me h used their services a few times, and every time he came out even more satisfied than the last time, he said they were fabulous.

The next day I called them, I asked if they I can make my move on a certain day they said before we talk about that lets have a meeting on this day and set up all the details of your move. During that meeting they took care of everything, we talked about everything to do with the move, and they even thought about questions tht didnt even come to my mind @ all. I thought it was amazing how they had it all figured out by the end of the day.

The day of the move came by and it was like every other day… I went to work they did everything. I came home at the end of the day and everything was done, it was amazing! When i came into my new apartment everything was there, nothing was damaged, nothing missing it was all great just like my buddy told me. Overall i think Flatrate moving is a great company, they did everything they were supposed to in less time with a great service.

It is possible to move without moving? Be wonder, but yes it is!

The time may come when it will be necessary for you to move a family member from their own home to another type of accommodation. Depending on their state of health and finances, the options generally fall into three categories:

For the Active Senior - Retirement Communities
Usually these are condo, land-lease or own homeownership of detached/semi detached homes, townhouses or apartments. There are usually recreational facilities in place in a planned community type setting.

For the Less Active Senior - Retirement Homes
Usually these are small apartments or bed-sitting type accommodations (including a small galley kitchen). Meals are available in a communal dining room although residents can prepare light meals in their own unit. Recreational activities are also available within the complex.
Nursing staff is usually available on site with physicians on an on-call basis.

For Seniors Requiring Care - Nursing Homes
Usually a private or shared room accommodation with 24 hour nursing staff available. Crafts, physiotherapy and some light recreational activity available on site.

Finding the right accommodation can be a time consuming and sometimes difficult task. Nursing homes in particular often have waiting lists. Some useful internet resources include:

If the person in question is not involved in the choice of residence, it is very important to be sensitive to the impact this move will have on your relative. Take extra time to listen to their concerns. Depending on how much space they will have in the new residence, help them to choose an appropriate number of special pieces of furniture and/or keepsakes to accompany them. Ask for their opinion before discarding belongings and honour their wishes as to how some items are to be distributed among family members or to worthy charities. If the relative is moving into a non-assisted living type arrangement,  at least offer assistance in making the moving arrangements. Assist them with the sorting and any self-packing. Offer to let them stay at your home during the pre-move stage.
