Who we are

Move Coordinators provides expert Move Management, Downsizing Services, Senior Relocation, and Estate Sales Services in Edmonton, Alberta and surrounding areas. Our experienced team will assist with the most challenging and important aspects of transitioning to a new home easily, and within your budget and timeframe.

Read More

Move Coordinators realized the need for assistance with the moving process, after 29 years of work in the Self-Storage business in Edmonton, Alberta. Moving is overwhelming, and so many people require assistance in making this transition less stressful. Seniors, especially, can find the moving process very daunting.

Our senior moving company is a new service in Canada. As a member of the National Association of Senior Move Managers we have experience and contacts to help move elders with ease. Our senior relocation services are tailored to each client.

After an initial, complementary home visit, a needs assessment is completed, and a proposal prepared for your review. We detail all services requested, and suggest others that may be of assistance to you. Our experience in the industry allows us to provide you with expert references to movers in your area, and we are always happy to provide references outside of our own work area through our association with the NASMM, or National Association of Senior Move Managers.

Downsizing first, is a key component of a successful move with several strategies available. Our goal is to make the moving process as smooth of a transition as possible. The end result is for yourself, or, your loved ones, to be settled into their new home, ready to enjoy the next chapter of their life.

Our vision is to provide you or your loved one a seamless move. Let us take you from overwhelmed to settled, with integrity, kindness and great communication.

What a difference MOVE made for us. Downsizing and moving in a hurry were only made possible by Karen and her MOVE service. We are forever grateful at how the seemingly impossible was made possible. Many thanks.

Judy

Karen did a fantastic job of confirming items to ship, then packing them and arranging the movers to remove all items. When I arrived at the apartment all the house hold items were setup and ready to go . Bed was made and all the furniture was setup where we planned to be. This is all completed in one day so my 100 year old aunt could sleep in her own bed that night! I would highly recommend using Karen’s company to anyone who is moving from home to senior live facility.

Bob Haymore

I would have been totally lost without Karen and Leanne. Karen has all the resources to cover every part of the daunting task of a move. I would highly recommend Move Coordinators and every service they have to offer.

Joyce Henning

Understandably, my initial expectation was the simple and normal movement of furniture from A to B! But Karen’s painstaking and meticulous packing of my belongings into boxes and labelling of those boxes into “want now” and “maybe later” categories and then ensuring those transferred contents were placed exactly where they were in the old house into the drawers and cupboards of the new house proved phenomenal and overwhelmingly efficient! The follow up auctioning of the furniture and stereo system, the disposal of all the garbage, and the cleaning and refreshing of the house to prepare it for sale, was very successful, a professional service that came at a time when I was under much pressure and stress!

A “moving” story to share with family and friends forever!

Eugene Saldanha

Karen helped my elderly Mom move by booking the movers, packing, unpacking after the move, booking and coordinating the movers and removed the boxes from the new apartment. Karen looked after all of the details. Karen is like a Wedding planner, but for moving. Karen also has associates who will buy any extra furniture, and will come and pick it up. Karen possesses a calm (in the storm) personality, knows what she has to do to make your move as smooth as possible. I would recommend Karen to everyone I know. I could not have moved my Mom without Karen, and kept my sanity.

Janice Yewchuk

Of all the companies and government departments I've had to deal with since my Mother's passing, Move Coordinators is definitely Number One for customer service. I was so pleased with your prompt attention, your follow-up and how  everything flowed so smoothly. You made a difficult time less stressful. You deserve ***** stars.
