Downsizing Your Home

Looking for expert help with downsizing in Devon? There are times when a change in your personal circumstances will lead to downsizing your home.  A retirement or a need to move out of the hustle and bustle of a major town and city for example can lead to you downsizing your property.  It could even be due to a divorce, a loss of a loved one or just to free up time from maintaining a larger home.

A New Year or a new decade can often be the time when we choose to make a new start, and one increasingly popular option for people looking to change their home environment is downsizing.

Professional Removal Service

At Dobson’s Removals and Storage, we have seen a significant increase in the number of clients who want to downsize in recent years.  We know from our decades of experience in domestic removals that making the decision to downsize can often be difficult.  It is natural to become emotionally attached to our homes, our possessions and the area in which we live, and leaving those things can be a gut wrenching.

Sometimes, downsizing in Devon can be the result of a major upheaval such as a divorce, the loss of a loved one, or the need for children to be nearer their parents to look after them in their later years in their life.  Moving home in such circumstances can be an emotional strain and at Dobson’s we always take care to handle such removals with a great deal of empathy and kindness. We never forget that at the heart of every move there are real people with individual personal stories, and as an experienced removals company, we have learned the importance of putting our client at the heart of everything we do.

We can also help when downsizing in Devon and moving into retirement villages or homes.  We have many years of experience helping customers move safely into retirement villages and retirement homes. We can also help to store valuables and antique furniture in our secure storage facilities.

Of course, as well as being an emotional experience, moving home to downsize can also be an opportunity to make a fresh start. It can be a good opportunity to declutter or to set up in a new place that is easier to maintain.  This can perhaps be with a smaller garden or fewer rooms to look after and maintain.  This will ultimately leave you with more leisure time to spend with your family or on hobbies.

We have been helping people to move home in Devon and Cornwall for over 33 years, we have dealt with every type of downsizing scenario.  We pride ourselves on providing a moving service that is individually tailored to your requirements.  A vital part of our service is the home visit, where we can sit down with you to gather important details and discuss how well your new property will be able to accommodate your furniture and effects.

It is natural to be reluctant to part with beloved and cherished items of furniture or effects.   However, we know from our long experience that trying to de-clutter after the move rather than before is a stressful process.  As highly trained, knowledgeable and experienced removal experts, our team are able to offer advice on every aspect of a downsizing removal.  This is to ensure that the process runs smoothly from start to finish.  For example, we often advise clients who are downsizing to obtain a full floor plan for their new property and then to measure their larger items of furniture to ensure that they will fit into the relevant rooms in their new home.
