What Our Clients Are Saying

“My first move in 30 years was a move to an apartment in a continuing care retirement community. The task seemed overwhelming, particularly packing and downsizing 30 years of accumulated belongings into a living space nearly 50% smaller. Adele and Smooth Move Managers stepped in and accomplished a hands-on miracle. What had seemed impossible to me was accomplished with seeming ease."

"Adele and her team helped me move my parents from their home of over 60 years to assisted living. She was gentle and kind to my parents, gaining an understanding from them of what they wanted to bring. She then made a detailed floor plan to place all the items. There's no way I could have done this by myself! My parent's new apartment has the feel of their home. A Smooth Move indeed!!"

“Adele helped me for 3 hours this past Sunday to get my office/craft space under control. She was kind, knowledgeable, patient, and relentless enough that we got the job done. I love my new space! I felt like I already knew “how” to get the job done, but she had extra insights I hadn’t considered and it was so helpful to have a 3rd party there to help.”

“Adele and Smooth Move Managers did a fabulous job with helping my mother get ready to move. I live in California and my mother was in Virginia but Adele was always communicating with me and providing options on how to take care of various aspects of the move. I can’t recommend Adele and Smooth Move

Managers enough. They took so much stress off my shoulders and made the process very efficient.”

“Adele has been a Godsend. While in the middle of preparing my house for sale, I had to be away for 6 weeks. She was able to coordinate all my sales through Facebook Marketplace, schedule all pick up times and be at my house to hand over the items. All this with great flexibility on her part. I am grateful for her help and encouragement through this very difficult process.”

“Your attention to detail, coordination skills, and the holding of people accountable to their contract responsibilities were critical in making my move both a success and without incident. As I am now comfortably ensconced in my new residence, I just wanted to thank you again for your hard work and dedication in insuring that my residence was set up exactly as we had planned and expected.”

“If you are planning a complicated move under difficult circumstances, Adele is the person to contact! In addition to her fantastic organizational skills, Adele knows how to help her clients coordinate with furniture movers, estate sale companies, and realtors. Her system for downsizing made the sorting process go really quickly, and frankly, I had fun with her while doing it!"

“Working with Smooth Move Managers made our transition from a three-story townhouse to a two-room apartment in a retirement community doable. Adele has a gift for listening, and knowing when we needed to stop and slow down to regain our bearings. She also put us in touch with movers and estate sale specialists who helped solve problems that made the move more tenable.”
