Dear valued clients,
Our business is continuing to operate as we navigate the current COVID-19 situation, and we are adapting our operations by practicing social distancing, and reiterating the practices of good hygiene, like frequent hand washing, providing hand sanitizer and gloves for the moving crews. We are also offering virtual onsites for current/ future clients during the current situation. We will do our best to keep our current clientele informed of any changes to current/ future moves.

As our client, your safety and health is our #1 priority during this state of emergency. Please consider the following guidelines to prepare for your move with us:

⚠ADVICE FOR CLIENTS REGARDING SETTING UP CONDITIONS FOR A MOVE: • Upon our arrival, please have your residence/ office/ items as ready as possible (cleaned/ sanitized and ventilated in advance) for the removal of your items. • It is recommended that you/ your representatives will keep, at a minimum, 6 feet of distance from our crew. Our crew members will keep, at a minimum, 6 feet of distance or more at the time of service. • You will assure continuous ventilation of the spaces we work in at all times. • Please provide dedicated bathroom(s), equipped with soap and paper towels for our crew members.

⚠LIMITATION OF LIABILITIES OF MOVING COMPANIES AND THEIR RIGHT TO CANCEL WORK (NATIONAL LOCAL MOVES): The Government has stated it is or will be implementing (as yet) measures to combat the spread of the virus. Such measures in place might impact our ability to provide services to you (including but not limited for us having to suspend or cancel in full the services) or the virus otherwise affects our ability to fulfill your relocation. This may place us in a position where we will not be able to accept any ability for any losses that may arise and we limit our liability accordingly. We are keeping the matter under careful review and will ensure that all customers are advised of any developments that may affect fulfillment of contracted services.

As our team at Homegrown Moving Company has been following updates, we are choosing to work with & adhere to the guidelines set forth by health officials and authorities. We want to do our part in mitigating the impact and spread of COVID-19 to the businesses and communities we serve, and we are implementing the following strategies to do so:

We have discussed with our team members what to do in the scenario that anyone is experiencing symptoms or may have been exposed to the virus. We have an understanding among ourselves to be transparent if somebody's not feeling good or may have been exposed. We understand the need to self quarantine for the proper amount of time, if this occurs, to avoid any further spread. In turn, we ask the same from our customers. In the event that you are feeling sick or may have been exposed, we are happy to make arrangements for another move date.

Use of examination gloves: Our teams will wear examination gloves while servicing moves as an additional hygiene measure and self protection. Gloves will be discarded after each move.

Due to the high demand of masks, we are unable to provide them at the moment, but if you would like masks to be provided for your move, please provide them and we can use them.

Our team will also have hand sanitizer, and we ask that they are allowed to use a sink or water source to wash their hands when available. Social distancing: Upon arrival to our customers' homes or offices, team members will follow the protocol of social distancing, allowing 6' between team members and you, our customer. We have always valued the professionalism and respect that accompany an introductory handshake, however during the COVID-19 outbreak, we ask that our customers understand for safety purposes that we will refrain from shaking hands or making physical contact.

Proper ventilation: In move settings when available, we request that our customers open outside doors and/or windows to increase air circulation. All of the above will be effective immediately and remain in place until April 20th, until we can reassess the situation and make further announcements. We strive to continue to practice CDC/ Federal / State/ WHO (World Health Organization) guidelines for health and safety to prevent contagion in our community.

Thank you, Homegrown Moving

How to choose a moving company for a senior moving to Fort Collins?

If you do not know how to browse the internet in search of a good company, you can always ask for help. Have your kids or grandkids do this for you. But make sure to be part of each decision making, especially if you are paying for this whole shebang. At this point, we can assist with your senior moving to Fort Collins, by recommending Homegrown Moving and Storage Company Colorado. They are reliable, affordable, and have much experience with these types of moves. You definitely need someone with experience in senior moving, who can understand your fears and your needs.

Hiring a senior move manager

The reasons for moving among seniors are various. Some move from their houses to retirement facilities or any other sort of assisted living as their loved ones cannot take care of them. Others move home as the one they have is too large and expensive for their needs. People with more than two kids are often left with big homes they cannot take care of, and that costs them a lot to maintain. Whatever your scenario is, you can hire a move manager to assist with logistics. If you decide to hire a manager he or she must be accredited with the National Association of Senior Move Managers. Although your loved ones will be there to help you, sometimes it is best to have a stranger do things for you. A move is a stressful event anyway, so any additional emotional rollercoaster should be avoided.

The importance of downsizing during a senior move to Fort Collins

Rarely do people of age move into bigger or more spacious houses than the one they are moving out. In most cases, they are moving to a one or two-room apartments or facilities. Obviously they cannot bring all their things with you. And that can be very emotional, as there have been a lot of memories during the years. Downsizing is a really important step, but maybe the most difficult one. In these cases, it is really good to have a senior move manager who will help in getting this done. If you cannot bring all your antiques with you, managers will find a way to compensate. If you calculate your moving expenses, you will realize that decluttering is the best option.

Things to do in Fort Collins after the senior move

If you are not a fan of the trolley ride, you can always visit The Fort Collins Museum of Discovery. The museum features interactive science, history, and nature exhibits. For the active seniors, there are several trails you can use for walking and hiking. For all those who like to stay in shape, this is the best way of exercising.
