Relocating after decades in one home is as much sorting as lifting. Our crews work at the pace the day needs — helping decide what goes, packing it, and setting up the new place so the first night feels like home.

Downsizing without the overwhelm

Marlene Foster in the A+ Don’s Moving office helps plan the timeline, and the crew handles the day with care. We are familiar with 55+ communities and senior living across the Cincinnati metro, where elevators, time windows, and a calm pace matter.

  • Sort room by room — keep, move, donate, or store, no rush
  • Pack and label everything, including the kitchen and the keepsakes
  • Place furniture and unpack essentials so the bed, TV, and kitchen work day one
  • Coordinate with retirement-community move-in hours and elevator reservations
  • Haul donations to local Cincinnati charities and clear out what is left behind
  • Short-term climate-controlled storage for anything family decides on later

One written rate, no day-of surprises

Families managing a parent’s relocation do not need a truck running an hourly meter all afternoon against an Ohio Valley ice-storm forecast. We quote a flat written rate up front so the cost is settled before the first carton is taped — the same way we price a full house relocation.

How a senior job runs

  1. Plan first. We walk the home, measure for the new floor plan, and set a calm timeline with the family.
  2. Sort and pack. The crew packs while you decide what travels — donations and discards sorted as we go.
  3. Move and place. Furniture set where it belongs, beds reassembled, cartons unpacked to the level you want.
  4. Settle the rest. Donations delivered, leftovers cleared, and storage arranged for anything undecided.

What Our Cincinnati Metro Crew Handles On The Job

  • Room-by-room sorting at a patient pace
  • Full packing and labeling of keepsakes and kitchen
  • Furniture placement and unpacking at the new home
  • Coordination with 55+ community move-in hours and elevators
  • Donation delivery and clear-out of what is left
  • One flat written rate and optional climate-controlled storage

What It Costs Around Cincinnati

A two-mover team runs $115/hr with a two-hour minimum; a three-mover team is $155/hr, and bigger Cincinnati jobs are pinned down as one flat written figure before our truck rolls off Spring Grove Avenue.

Two of our own W-2 movers, a padded box truck, four-wheelers, shrink wrap and quilted blankets — the entire Cincinnati job folded into a single A+ Don’s Moving rate, with no handoff to a third-party van line at any point in the day.

Questions Cincinnati Households Ask Before Booking This Service

Do you help decide what to keep and what to let go?
Yes. We sort room by room with you - keep, move, donate, or store - at whatever pace feels right. It is a core part of senior downsizing in Cincinnati, not just loading the truck and pulling away.
Can you move a parent into a 55-plus or assisted living community?
We do it regularly across Hamilton County and the surrounding Cincinnati metro. We coordinate with the community's move-in hours and elevator reservations, set up the furniture, and unpack the essentials so the first night is comfortable.
What happens to the items that aren't moving?
We deliver donations to local Cincinnati charities and clear out what is left so the old home is ready to hand over. Anything the family has not decided on can go into short-term climate-controlled storage on the same written rate.

Why the Queen City Books A+ Don's Moving

From Mason two-story Colonials and West Chester split-levels to P&G executive condos and Mt. Adams hillside Victorians — a crew that knows Hamilton, Warren, and Butler County streets block by block.

Severe-Weather Loadouts

April tornado watches, January ice storms, August humidity — we roll up with floor runners, shrink wrap, and pad-wrapped dollies. Tight Mt. Adams curbs and steep Clifton driveways get a smaller truck and slower grade.

Top-Rated OH Crews

Every hand at your door is on our payroll — full-time, W-2, background-checked, trained the way Don runs the yard. Never day labor. That is how we hold a 5-star Google rating.

One Flat Written Rate

Your figure is set on paper before the first carton leaves, and it holds whether I-71 stacks or the job runs late. Long hauls come back as a binding written total — nothing added at the curb.

No Broker Handoffs

Every truck wears our name; every mover draws a W-2 paycheck. Your load is never handed off — one Cincinnati company packs it, drives it, and carries it in.

Fully Insured, $1M Cargo

Registered Ohio household-goods carrier — Ohio PUCO authority on file in-state, US DOT and MC for jobs across the Kentucky line. A $1 million cargo policy backs every job.

On Time Across the Metro

Two-hour arrival window, a call the moment we leave the yard. We route around the Brent Spence Bridge and the I-275 backup near Blue Ash, so your closing date holds.

Packing & Supplies Included

Pack the whole house, the finished basement, or just the rooms keeping you up at night. Cartons, pads, dollies, and shrink film ride on the truck — wrapping starts the moment we step inside.

Specialty Pieces Handled

Upright pianos, gun safes, and antique sideboards get the right ramp and straps — plus a crew chief who has eased them down Mt. Adams steps and out of Hyde Park walk-ups without a scratch.

Your Easy Cincinnati Move

A flat written rate, then loading, then unloading at your new Queen City address — three steps, start to finish.

1

Tell Us About Your Move

Share the basics — rooms, finished basement, tight Mt. Adams hillside curb access, any upright piano or gun safe — and Don’s office prices it as one clear flat figure with no fine print.

2

We Wrap & Protect

The crew rolls up on time, pads and shrink-wraps every piece — finished basements, downtown high-rise units, narrow Over-the-Rhine third-floor walk-ups — and shoulders all the heavy lifting.

3

Move to Your New Home

We drive across Hamilton County or out I-71 toward Columbus and I-75 toward Dayton, unload box by box into the right rooms, and reassemble the furniture. Welcome home!
