What our senior moving service covers

A move later in life is rarely just a move: it is downsizing decades in a home, often on an emotional week, sometimes into assisted living on a tight timeline. We work these at a patient pace as gentle, unhurried Minnesota movers, helping sort what is kept, given away or stored, and setting up the new place so it feels like home the first night.

One patient crew, sorting to setup

We work with the family as much as the mover, keeping things calm and never rushing the person at the center of it. Whether the move is within Edina especially, over to Minnetonka or out to the south suburbs, one steady crew sees it through.

HOW A SENIOR MOVE RUNS

Our senior moving process

A later-life move carries more than furniture, so it cannot be rushed.
So the pace, the sorting and the price are agreed gently and in advance.
The figure and the schedule reach you in writing well ahead of time.
Then we move at the pace the day needs, not the clock’s.

Walkthrough and written quote

We visit and talk it through, with the family if that helps: what is moving, what is being sorted, and the pace that suits. Then one flat, all-inclusive figure, in writing.

Your move plan, locked in

Approve the figure and the date is held. We plan the sort, book any senior-living move window and confirm insurance certificates.

Move day, start to finish

One patient uniformed crew moves, unpacks and sets up the new place. Beds made, essentials out, so the first night is comfortable. What you approved is what you pay.

WHY BLUE DOLLY FOR A SENIOR MOVE

Why choose our senior movers

A move into a two-bedroom condo and a move into a single assisted-living room are different jobs, and each is quoted gently on its own terms.

Licensed, Bonded, Covered

Federal and state authority on file, with cargo and liability cover carried on every job.

One Price, Fixed

One agreed figure, put in writing before we start, and it does not budge on move day.

We Arrive When We Say

Your arrival slot is a commitment, not an estimate, at the pickup and at the drop-off.

Our Own Trucks And Gear

Trucks, dollies, straps and padding that we own, maintain ourselves and check before loading.

Reachable Any Hour

Someone picks up whenever you call, whether it is a fresh booking or a last-minute change.

Backed By Our Promise

We track it and we publish it, and a 98% satisfaction score is the bar we hold ourselves to.

What families tell us afterward

These land on our Google profile once each job is settled, often left by the adult children who arranged the move.
The movers were fantastic! Wrapped all the furniture so well.
There was a problem with the storage locker and they handled it perfectly well on their own time and patience.
I would highly recommend them to do any move large or small.
And 79 years of age they also took care of me.
I couldnโ€™t thank them enough!!!
Sam was congenial, professional and prompt!
Jack and Jakob were pleasant, hardworking.

Derek and Marcus were absolutely AMAZING with our move! They disassembled and reassembled furniture, helped figure out the best way to set up our bedroom, lifted heavy furniture (the dining room table is a beast) and did it all without complaint. We moved from the twin cities to about 3 hours north, so I was concerned about price, but it turned out to be extremely reasonable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND BLUE DOLLY MOVING!!! Thanks guys!!!
Sam and Jacob were here to unload furniture. They were very careful and very hard-working young men! I would recommend them highly!

Senior moving questions, answered

What does a senior move cost?
The size of the move, the sorting help and any add-ons decide it, quoted as one flat figure after a visit. Wrapping, floor protection and fuel are inside that number, with no hourly clock rushing the day.
Can you help decide what to keep?
Yes. We help sort room by room into keep, donate and store, at a pace that suits, and can take donations on and hold the rest under our storage service.
Do you set up the new place?
We do. Beds are made and daily essentials unpacked so the first night in a new home or care suite is comfortable rather than a wall of boxes.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Blue Dolly Moving & Storage operates under USDOT 3928585, MnDOT 384454 and MC 1521934, and we carry full cargo and liability coverage on every move. You are welcome to verify our authority before you book.
Can you work to an assisted-living facility's move-in rules?
Yes. Many have set move windows and insurance requirements; we book the window and send the certificate ahead, same as any managed building.
Can family be involved or is it just you?
Whatever works. We often coordinate with adult children handling it from out of town, keeping everyone updated through the move.
