PREPARING THE DISPLACEMENT OF ITS PARENTS
OUR ADVICES
After a certain age, it is unfortunately difficult for the elderly to have to move. Whether it is for a specialized institution (nursing home, retirement home) or for a new, more suitable apartment, it’s never easy to organize a parent’s move: not only do you have to convince them first. The move will make life easier for them, but they will have to succeed in having them sort out their belongings.
TAKE THIS FOREWORD
In order not to rush your parents, we advise you to propose to them the idea of the move as soon as possible by letting them participate in the decision-making process. This will help you to convince them and prepare the move in good conditions.
Look for accommodation that will allow them to keep their autonomy: elevator, shops and services nearby … You can, for example, show them the neighborhood via StreetView (see Google Maps) to avoid visits. The ideal is to find a flat close to yours if needed, which will reassure them and, in some cases, depending on the degree of autonomy, you will avoid having a full-time person.
FIND WHAT WE MUST DO
When an older person moves, it is in most cases to move into a smaller dwelling. It will therefore be necessary to sort because all the furniture will not be able to enter the new apartment. Making sure that older parents understand they have to separate from their lives is not an easy task.
To retrieve items that can not be moved, you have several solutions:
If the furniture is old and of poor quality, you can let them serve the voluminous of your city (free in general, rocking the furniture on the sidewalk)
If you have space at home or at home, you can retrieve the furniture
Alternatively, you can also opt for storage in a gentle storage.
FIND A GRAVE REMOVE
