A seniors moving team North Vancouver families rely on

Many of the seniors we help on the North Shore have spent decades in the same home — a family house in Lynn Valley or Upper Lonsdale, a home near Edgemont Village, a split-level on a mountainside street. Leaving a home like that is about far more than boxes. That’s why we keep everything in-house: the same caring team you meet at the consultation is the team that sorts, packs, moves, and sets up the new home.

We serve both the City and District of North Vancouver, and we regularly help families move a parent into independent living, assisted living, and long-term care communities. Downsizing to a condo in Lower or Central Lonsdale instead? We’ll plan around your building’s strata rules and elevator booking — and if the move is still a ways off, our downsizing and estate transition services can help you get started at your own pace.

What’s included in a North Vancouver senior move

A full transition service, tailored to your situation, timeline, and what feels manageable.

Downsizing Decisions

We help sort what stays and what goes — room by room, at your pace, with a clear plan for every item.

Full Clear-Out

Items not coming along can be sold, donated to local charities, or responsibly disposed of — we handle all of it.

Packing & Protection

Careful packing for fragile items, artwork, photos, and keepsakes.

Move Day Coordination

Protection, loading, transport across North Vancouver, and placing items where they belong.

Unpack & Set Up

Full setup so the new home feels lived-in from day one — beds made, kitchen ready, artwork hung.

Family Alignment

Clear updates so family members near and far stay informed — including out-of-town family.

Moving in North Vancouver comes with its own logistics

The North Shore’s slopes are part of its charm — and part of what makes moving here different. We plan for it.

Mountainside homes

Steep driveways, multi-level splits, and stairs to the front door are everyday things here. We stage the move so slopes and stairs are handled carefully.

Lonsdale towers

Lower and Central Lonsdale high-rises require elevator bookings, loading bays, and strata rules — we arrange it all ahead of time.

Established neighbourhoods

Lynn Valley, Edgemont, and Upper Lonsdale homes often hold decades of belongings. We sort, clear out, and pack at your pace.

Donation & consignment runs

Items that aren’t coming along go where they should — we handle donation drop-offs and disposal runs as part of the move.

What Families Are Saying

Real reviews from real families across Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.

Paula D

I had to move my mother from her independent living suite to a new long-term care home, where she was able to take some of her own furniture. Garrett and Nick of Get Started Home Services were fabulous! They were exceptionally polite, personable, and professional. They moved my mom’s living-room furniture into her new sitting room, making sure that everything fit. I highly recommend Get Started Home Services and would gladly hire them again.

Thomas Sherwood

The most friendly and personal movers I have ever dealt with. They helped move my elder father into his care home last year and we just used them to move into our new home. I will be recommending all family and friends to these guys! Thank you so much.

Tammy Poirer

Get Started Home Services was a lifesaver for me. We had to move my dad into a care facility and then clear out 18+ years’ worth of “stuff”, then downsize me from a large home to a condo. Dawn, Garrett and their team were absolutely amazing throughout all of it. Their patience and professionalism are second to none.

North Vancouver seniors moving FAQs

Do you serve all of North Vancouver?

Yes. We help seniors and families move throughout the City and District of North Vancouver — Lower Lonsdale, Central Lonsdale, Upper Lonsdale, Lynn Valley, Edgemont, Capilano, Pemberton Heights, and more — as well as the rest of Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.

Do you serve both the City and the District of North Vancouver?

Yes — both, from Lower Lonsdale to Deep Cove. Wherever your family is moving from or to, the same in-house team handles the whole transition.

Can you move my parent into a seniors’ community in North Vancouver?

Absolutely. We regularly help families move a parent into independent living, assisted living, and long-term care communities, and we are familiar with the move-in procedures, loading areas, and elevator scheduling these residences use.

Do you handle the downsizing and clear-out too?

Yes. We sort room by room with you, then sell, donate, or responsibly dispose of whatever is not coming along — and we can get the old home clean and ready for sale afterward.

We don’t live in North Vancouver — can you manage our parent’s move for us?

Yes, this is one of the most common situations we help with. Many of our clients’ adult children live in another city or province. We keep you informed at every step, from the first consultation through to photos of the finished new home.

How much does a senior move in North Vancouver cost?

It depends on the size of the home, how much downsizing is involved, and which services you need. We offer a free, no-obligation consultation and a clear written estimate so you know what to expect before anything begins.

Are you a moving company or a coordinator?

We are a full-service seniors moving company — our own in-house team handles everything from planning to the physical move to setup. We do not subcontract your move to an outside crew.
