Downsizing services for seniors in Sonoma County, whether you plan your own move or a relative helps. One personalized plan covers sorting, packing, moving and setup.
We only contact you about this request. Your number is never shared.
Senior move management in Santa Rosa brings every part of a later-life move under one plan. Some people reach out to plan a move for themselves. Others call for a parent, a spouse or a close friend. Either way, we start by listening to your needs, your timeline, the new home and who else wants a say. Then we write a personalized plan, and a dedicated point of contact, your coordinator, guides it from the first visit until you are settled, backed by our local Mentors staff in Santa Rosa.

Your coordinator answers questions, books each provider and keeps every date on track.
Services are chosen for your home and your wishes, never pulled from a fixed package.
Every mover we send passes a background check before entering any home.
We do not sell one fixed package. You pick the services you need, and you get a written quote that covers only the planning and coordination your plan needs. Any outside provider, such as an estate sale company, is named in the plan.
A plan with sorting, packing and setup takes more hours than one built around the move alone.
Decades of closets and garage shelves take longer to sort than a one-bedroom rental.
Pieces bound for relatives, storage or donation add stops and coordination time.
This table covers moving labor and the truck, nothing more. The number of movers follows the size of the load.
| Movers and truck | Good for | Starting rate |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers, 1 truck | Studio, 1 bedroom or small office | from $170/hr |
| 3 movers, 1 truck | Large 1 bedroom to 3 bedroom home | from $230/hr |
| 4 movers, 1 truck | 3 bedroom home or larger office | from $290/hr |
Local jobs run a 3-hour minimum, with drive time added to the billed hours. Pads, shrink wrap and furniture disassembly are covered by the rate. Cartons, tape, fuel surcharge, storage and valuation are billed on their own lines.
We help people settle into, leave or switch between senior living communities in Santa Rosa and across Sonoma County. Varenna, Spring Lake Village, Oakmont Gardens and Cogir of Rohnert Park are a few of the communities whose residents we can serve.
We measure the new apartment, plan where each piece will stand and confirm delivery hours and elevator times with the community before the date.
When a resident leaves for a relative’s home, another level of care or a new city, we pack the apartment and arrange what happens to items staying behind.
A switch to a different unit in the same community, or to a new campus, is planned so the bed is made and the furniture rebuilt in the new rooms.
The Sonoma County Area Agency on Aging answers questions about care options on weekdays, and the state care facility search shows records and complaint reports for licensed homes.
Shared on Google about our Santa Rosa office, word for word.
This is an unusual excellent moving company that I would highly recommend! I am a 78 yo single woman and they were respectful and kind and considerate! They communicated well and worked efficiently on two jobs- closing my office and moving me from my family home to a Senior village in another county. The workers, Sean, Junior and Jovenito were a really well working team! Kudos to them all! High marks!
Both Jesse and Juventino were so helpful. I have a lot more moving around to do this year as we consolidate households to be able to care for my mother after my dad’s passing last year, and I know I can count on Mentor Movers to be my go to! It is such a relief to know that finding the right movers is not something I need to worry about any!
Juventihui and Steven moved my dad this week and they did a stellar job. They were prompt, great communicators and very careful. I was impressed with the detailed work on matching the items moves with a master inventory. I highly recommend
Our close work with senior communities started when we were new to moving, and it goes on today. It has included several communities throughout Santa Rosa and Sonoma County. From those jobs we learned the patience, care, communication and coordination these moves need. On that footing we now offer full-service Senior Move Management, start to finish. Our own staff handle many services, and we bring in qualified outside providers when a job needs extra expertise. Our Santa Rosa office on Dutton Avenue opened in 2019.
Residents of these North Bay towns, and relatives helping them, also call our Santa Rosa office. Each link opens our moving page for that town.
Each service below is an option, not part of one base price. Your plan includes only the ones you choose.
Before anything is sold, donated or discarded, you or your authorized representative signs off on it.
Only need the move itself? Our senior moving service covers loading, the drive and room setup without the planning visits. It suits anyone who has already sorted what to bring.
Movers can box the whole house or only the kitchen, books and keepsakes, with each carton marked for its new room. Fragile china and framed photos get extra paper and padding.
Furniture that relatives have not claimed yet can wait in our warehouse until a decision is made. Pieces come back out when someone is ready for them.
Need two people to shift furniture between rooms or load a relative’s rental truck? Book movers by the hour for short jobs.
When a move leads out of California to be closer to family, we pack here and deliver to the new home there.
A move from Sonoma County to Sacramento or Southern California follows the same plan, with an inventory checked at both ends.
Not sure which service fits? Describe the situation when you call, and we suggest a mix that suits you or the person you are helping.
A few North Bay details we check before the first sorting day.
Most plans follow this order, adjusted to your pace and your choices.
A call with you, or with the relative helping, about timing, the new home and who makes decisions.
We tour the current home, note the pieces that matter most and measure what the new space can hold.
You receive a personalized plan that lists each chosen service, provider and date, with your coordinator named.
Rooms are sorted with your approval, then packed and moved on the agreed days.
The new home is set up, and your coordinator checks in afterward to help with anything left.
It can include planning, sorting, space planning, packing, the move, unpacking, storage and help with donations, estate sales and cleanouts. You choose the services, and we build them into one custom plan.
Yes. We coordinate qualified estate sale, consignment, appraisal and donation providers. Nothing leaves the home for sale or donation until you, or the person you have authorized, agrees.
Yes. Plenty of older adults set up their own plan with us. You stay in charge of every choice, and your coordinator handles the calls and the scheduling.
They can. If you agree, we email the plan and updates to the relatives you name, and they can call our office at any stage.
Yes. Whether you are entering a community, leaving one or changing apartments, we confirm each building’s move-in rules ahead of time.
Call once a new home is chosen or close to it. Larger homes often need several sorting visits, so a few weeks of notice helps.
Call (707) 326-4479 or fill in the form with your current address, your next address if it is set and a rough timeline. Planning your own move or helping someone else? We set up a first talk, then put the price in writing.
