I was referred to these folks by my real estate agent who knew I was experiencing chronic back pain as well as breathing issues. This is such a great concept to not worry about taking art work/photos/TV/mirrors off the walls, packing/moving and then unpacking yet again trying to figure where everything belongs in it's new home. Margie and Karin were absolute angels in helping me move from one place to another. Everything was packed securely and carefully with lots of packing material and placed in appropriate boxes. They were working so hard that I insisted they take a break as watching them made my back hurt; I was feeling sympathy pain. Margie also helped guide the furniture movers of what to pack and where to move it in the new residence. This gave me time to give my dogs a good walk and an errand. The movers they hired were excellent as well. They carefully covered all of my hardwood floors with protective floor material so that the floors were not damaged. They also found a loose arm on one of the captain's dining chair and tightened it for me. What service! I *highly* recommend that you hire Managing Moves for your moving needs. It truly saves a lot of time and most of all, saved my back and relieved any possible exertion on my compromised lungs. They were all very professional, hard-working, kind-hearted, thoughtful and generous of their time. They would not leave until they made sure you were satisfied with the move and didn't have anything else outstanding. It's so nice to know that you can move and have everything unpacked and placed in it's appropriate place in the new residence on the same day instead of tackling this task for days doing it on your own. Thank you for making this customer happy! read more

I have twice used Cindi's services to move from my home to an assisted living facility, which subsequently closed, so then used her again to move to another place. The services she and her staff offered in downsizing my home, making those hard decisions about what to keep, what to get rid of are hard, yet we did it! Not only that, but each move, they were wonderful at the new home with the way they unpacked necessary items, made up the bed, outfitted the bathroom so it was ready for a shower, and by they time they left, I had little left to do. A truly wonder service. Bouquets, Cindi !!! read more

Managing Moves & More did an excellent job in packing up our home in preparation for a sale. The process was simple (a review of the home, an estimate, a date for the packing up, support for moving the packed items out of the home and a final invoice) and the final pricing came in as estimated. The team was well prepared and trained. They were conscientious and used care in packing things. They were in and out of the home within the time as they scheduled. The whole process was easy and as advertised. We very much appreciated the good service that MM&M provided us. read more

I've been a client of Managing Moves & More since April 2015 when my parents moved from their home of 35 years to an assisted living apartment. Cindy, Katie, and the crew did a great job efficiently identifying & packing which items should go to the apartment. Considering my mother's dementia diagnosis, the crew worked around my mother's schedule, out-of-sight, so as not to upset her. At the apartment, the crew unpacked and rehung everything tastefully and professionally. Hiring MM&M allowed me to focus my energy on helping my parents orient to their new surroundings, instead of physically exhausting myself moving their stuff. Especially since I live out of town, I could not imagine doing all of that myself, in a short period of time. In Jan 2017, my father passed away, and once again, I called the ladies at MM&M. Acknowledging my grief, the packing crew respectfully helped me identify and dispose of donation, haul away, and heirloom keepsakes. The same courteous and professional movers from 2015, helped once again. Finally, in the Spring of 2017, I contacted MM&M for estate sale advice on the remaining contents of my parents home. On short notice, another Cyndi came by and gave tips and advice helping me determine that based on estate sale fees, a big garage sale would work best in my situation. I appreciated her honesty. read more

Cindy and her staff were EXCELLENT! Cindy and I met at my moms home where we needed help in packing, moving and set up with all her belongings including figuring out where and how to do her new place in a retirement community. From the very beginning to the end Cindy and her staff were the best! I do recommend Cindy and her crew. Thanks to them I am much happier and was not stressed and my mom really liked what they did. Thank you ladies read more

See all

They did a great job helping clear out my mother's apartment after her passing. I used Managing Moves upon the recommendation of the facility where my mother was living. I turned to Managing Moves because the pandemic had locked down my mother's facility and I had no way of clearing out the apartment. HOWEVER, when I asked for Managing Moves to dispose of my mother's belongings, I later learned that they gave some of the belongings to the facility. Managing Moves corrected the issue, but the incident left me wondering what they really do - perhaps keep it for their own benefit?? When dealing with Managing Moves ensure you provide specific directions, in writing. read more

You can pay a student or another person to do what they do. I said to my person please give me some ideas for the office when you come next time. I opened the cabinet and asked for her thoughts since in an email she said she had lots of ideas. Here is her idea - what do you want to put in there? Seriously! She had zero suggestions. My friend who used another sorter said she had zero ideas as well. Outrageous prices for putting plates in a box and rearranging a closet and one shelf. read more

I can not say enough good things about this Company. I needed a home cleaned out when my mom passed away. Crystal is doing a great job-- super responsive and very pleasant and helpful. Did not over look small things and responds quickly. Her team also found a large sum of cash hidden among some towels-- so honest!! I live 3000 miles away. I feel very comfortable with them as a team read more

When faced with a very short time frame to move my mother in to an assisted living apartment and to totally clear her home for sale I was referred to Managing Moves and More. Cindy found time right away to meet with me and completely understood what sort of help we would need. Our project manager, Crystal, was always quick to respond to calls and very flexible with our situation. If you are overwhelmed with a moving situation do not hesitate to call them! read more

Cindy and MM&M are a tremendous service. So well organized. Their personnel are all very profession and knowledgeable. Crystal was the Lead on my move and did an excellent job. I had lived in my 2100 SQ FT Home in the Villages for almost 20 years and the thought of organizing for a move into a small one bedroom 650 SQ FT apartment in The Meadows of Los Gatos seemed overwhelming. She and her crew made it so simple and stress free. On the day of the actual move I was able to leave the old house and move into the new apartment where the furniture was already in place, pictures on the walls, clothing in the closets and drawers, china and cutlery, pots and pans in the kitchen!!! Amazing! Cannot thank them enough. I am sure there is no one who can do better. read more

Crystal of Managing Moves & More just managed my Mom's move. Some of Mom's items were moving to her new apartment, some were going to family, some were being donated. Crystal was so organized and so prepared. She knew exactly where everything was going. Her team got Mom's items packed, moved, and unpacked, plus got everything to family and donation. This was such an easy process. I highly recommend MM&M! read more

I am beyond impressed with the people and services of MM&M. After losing my wife, I had decided to move out of state to be closer to family and to downsize considerably, But I was physically and psychologically overwhelmed by the prospect of cleaning out and moving out of a home that had been lived in for 43 years. MM&M sent me Natalie, who assessed my situation and my needs perfectly and got me onto a clear and productive path. She gave me an overall plan that fit my timeline and then let me do the tasks I felt comfortable with while she picked up everything else. The flexibility was most welcomed, and Natalie was great at checking in to see how things were going and what was needed. She set the schedule, packed all of the delicate items, arranged for the moving company and kept me in supplies to do the things I chose to do myself -- like pack the easy stuff and throw out the junk. She offered me tips on how to do things right and was particularly knowledgeable and helpful finding places to donate the many items that still had monetary or social value. She was punctual, pleasant and always productive. I really could not have managed without her help. And she followed up right through the move into my new home. MM&M was the solution to my moving needs. An important service delivered by great people, and priced fairly. I recommend them highly and send my thanks to Natalie. read more

Amazing! Managing Moves and More just moved one of my clients from her home of many years into a senior community. Not only did they show great expertise and finesse in dealing with this emotional client and her issues but they made the move smoothly and seemlessly. My client raves about them. And I was totally impressed by how well they decorated the new apartment. With just the furnishings that she had, they made the new apartment into a lovely showplace. I was very impressed! Thanks! read more

Katie just finished moving my mom from her home of 40 years into The Terraces (in Los Gatos), and I truly could not have done it without her help. My 82 year old mother had to make a lot of choices since she was moving into a smaller space, and Katie was terrific at working with my mom to figure that out. (My mom kept changing her mind about stuff, and Katie had the patience that I didn't have.) Katie and her crew packed everything up in one day, and unpacked it at my mom's new place the next day - so when my mom walked in, everything was put away and she was in a real home. One of the best things that Managing Moves provided was Katie figuring out a floor plan of how to fit all my mom's stuff into her new place. When we had a glitch at the last minute with some leftover furniture, Katie was able to get someone there the same day to take care of it. Last, the price ended up being even less than their quote - and it was very reasonable and fair, and they did everything they said they were going to do. In other words, this company is terrific! read more

My father and I are local realtors and come across extreme situations from time to time. We see thousands of homes throughout the year in varying conditions. In this particular instance, we have never seen so much stuff of little or no value crammed into one home. We didn't know where to begin. We had used Cindy and her team on a much smaller job earlier in the year and were impressed. We gave Cindy a call and got the ball rolling. Besides just organizing, scheduling, and moving, there are personalities to be managed as well. I honestly expected the job would not be completed on time given the nature of the situation, the amount of stuff and the personalities involved. Cindy and her crew got it done and completely earned our respect in the process. We would happily recommend the entire crew for future jobs. read more

Cindy managed a move for my parents several months ago. They moved out of their home of 50 years plus and into an assisted living facility. It seemed like an overwhelming task for my husband and I especially since we don't live locally. Cindy was awesome. I can not say enough good things about her and her crew. It wasn't just that they new how to pick and choose and arrange furniture in my parents new place and make it look like home. They were awesome at dealing with the emotional human element of seniors having to downsize and leave most of their treasures behind. My mom, who had been adamant about not leaving her home 2 months before, instantly loved what Cindy did with her new place. It felt like home the moment she stepped inside. Flash forward 8 months. My dad passed away and my mother was not doing very well on her own with us living 350 miles away. We decided to move her to an assisted living community in our town. Once again we called Cindy...not knowing how much she should really help with an out of area move. She took on the challenge and handled everything beautifully. If you have been looking for a moving manager for seniors, look no more! You can't do any better than Managing Moves and More! read more

As a local realtor, we are always looking for good affiliates to include in our network. We first found Cindy when her company was called Senior Transitions. Our elderly clients had hired Cindy and her team to help them move to a retiement community. The gentle and supportive way they handled their jobs was very impressive. Since that time, we have found several occassions to call on Managing Moves and More, not just for our senior clients. They manage each situation on an individual basis and provide outstanding customer service. read more

Managing Moves & More did a fantastic job of packing up our home when we were selling our house. They then co-ordinated with the storage team to put everything in storage until the house is sold and we move into our new house. On the first day there was a slight miscommunication which was very quickly corrected by Cindi personally coming on site and staying late until everything was resolved. Outstanding service. Although quite expensive, the job was carried out on time. Without exception the team were all polite and extremely helpful. Our's was a tricky job with lots of small delicate ornaments which were all handled with extreme care. I would strongly recommend them and will use them for any future packing and moving jobs. Well Done, great job! read more

I have referred many families to Cindy, because she is simply the best. I have received consistent feedback that she is wonderful to work with, and can really help seniors and their families through the sometimes difficult process of downsizing. In addition, my husband and I sought Cindy's help when we moved houses last year - everything went so smoothly! read more

If I could add 95 more stars to make an even 100, I would do it. Cindy and her team helped us move out of our home of 44 years to a new dream location. I had thought I was really organized but with just a little over a week to go, I found I still had a lot to do. As I was about to panic, my East Coast daughter found MM&M online for me. I didn't even realize that there was such a service. The team was terrific and Tenley not only managed our move, but managed my husband in going through years and years of his stuff, and I didn't have to do that! Just read the other comments and you'll get a glimmer of all the things Cindy's team can do. Fast forward a year. We thought we'd keep an apartment in our hometown but found we weren't using it, so decided to let it go. I had made an appointment with Salvation Army to have their truck pick up some things, including mattresses, box springs and frames. I called the day before they were to come (they were coming on our move out day) to confirm and they had scheduled the pick-up for the wrong date! Before I got overly distressed I called my new best friend, Cindy, owner of MM&M, to see if she could help me. She was able to engage a magic person to come the very next day to take my donations. He will deliver them to a charity. I'm still reeling in amazement. And I was able to move out in time. As I said, 100 stars and then some to Cindy and her team! read more

Our real estate agent recommended us to Managing Moves and More. Our house was about to be listed on the market and we had a very short window of time; just a few weeks, to get our garage packed up and our home completely organized, de-cluttered and staged to sell. When I called Cindy Hofen, she was very professional and helpful. I made an appt. and Cindy came over with her associate, Susan Fontaine. Both Cindy and Susan reassured me that they could help get everything ready very quickly. Cindy and Susan walked through our house, took notes and by the end of our meeting, I felt much better and definitely less stressed. As planned, they followed through. Susan came over with her crew- all lovely women who worked very hard and got so much done exactly as we requested and were very professional and friendly. They had two gentleman come over one day to pick up furniture that we wanted to donate, Susan gave me a list of items we needed to stage the house and by the third week of Susan and staff helping every few days, our house was in "model home" condition. Their artistic touch(especially Susan's wonderful eye) to the staging was so creative and incredibly tasteful. Needless to say, our house sold within weeks with multiple offers. I give Managing Moves and More a great deal of credit for our house and garden to show so beautifully and sell so quickly. I have already referred Managing Moves and More to friends who are about to list their homes. I am so thankful we found this amazing service. read more

Cindy and her team packed and unpacked all items in my kitchen and dining room during our kitchen and dining room remodel. The unpacking went well and I helped show them where things went. The best part for me was that they lined my shelves and drawers with lining material because my back prevents me from bending. We had fun and laughed while we worked. I really enjoyed working with them. read more

Managing Moves & More is a professional, timely, friendly, dependable, "can-do" organization that takes the stress out of moving your loved ones into new living situations. The professional staff went to the new residence to confirm and make recommendations to layout and placement of selected furniture items. On the day of the move everything went like clockwork - no issues. You should only use Managing Moves & More! read more

This was the easiest move ever! They are worth their price! They took picture of a desk before the move and set the desk up exactly the way it was before the move! Even the pencils, papers and reading glasses were placed perfectly. Unbelievable! They have the best communication I have had in recent years, with any company. They called when they said they would, arrive when the said they would, they asked question for clarification, and the move went smoothly. read more
