Moving to Lenbrook House: Logistics & Timeline

Senior relocations to continuing care retirement communities require thoughtful planning, compassionate handling, and coordination with community management. LiteMovers understands the emotional and practical complexities of this life transition, providing specialized services that ease the process for residents and families.

Pre-Move Planning (4-6 Weeks Before)

Contact LiteMovers at (610) 755-5535 to schedule your free in-home assessment. Our senior moving specialists visit your current residence to evaluate belongings, discuss floor plan layouts at Lenbrook House, and develop a customized moving plan. We coordinate directly with Shannondell management to understand building access requirements, elevator reservations, and move-in scheduling windows.

During this phase, we help families make downsizing decisions with sensitivity and patience. Our team provides space planning consultations, comparing current furniture dimensions against Lenbrook House floor plans. We identify which belongings fit comfortably, what requires storage, and what might benefit family members or charitable donations. This thoughtful process respects lifetime possessions while creating functional, comfortable new living spaces.

LiteMovers submits all required insurance documentation to Shannondell management, including certificates of insurance. We confirm move-in date availability, elevator scheduling (if applicable), and any building-specific requirements. Our administrative team handles coordination details, allowing families to focus on the emotional aspects of transition.

Two Weeks Before Move-In

Final logistics confirmation begins two weeks before moving day. We reconfirm apartment number, parking instructions, and building access codes with Shannondell staff. Our team reviews the detailed floor plan layout you’ve approved, ensuring furniture placement aligns with your vision for the new space.

If you’ve selected our comprehensive packing services, we provide specialty materials for fragile items, artwork, and personal treasures. Our senior moving specialists understand the importance of handling lifetime possessions with care and respect.

For families managing estate sales, donations, or storage alongside the move, LiteMovers coordinates with estate sale companies, charities, and storage facilities to streamline the entire transition. We schedule these services around the moving timeline, minimizing disruption and decision fatigue during an already emotional period.

Move-In Day

On moving day, our experienced crew arrives prepared with floor protection materials, furniture dollies designed for senior living communities, and specialized equipment for delicate items. We understand that CCRC moves often involve treasured possessions with decades of memories—every item receives professional handling and placement exactly where you want it.

Our team coordinates with Shannondell management and staff, following all building protocols for deliveries and access. We navigate the campus layout efficiently, protecting common area flooring and walls during furniture transport. Elevator usage, doorway clearances, and hallway navigation receive careful attention to prevent any property damage.

Upon arrival at your Lenbrook House apartment, we place furniture according to your approved floor plan, make any adjustments you request, and ensure each room meets your vision. Our crew assembles beds, arranges living room seating for conversation and television viewing, and positions dining furniture for comfortable meals. We hang mirrors, artwork, and wall decorations at appropriate heights, creating an immediately comfortable home environment.

Before departing, we remove all packing materials, perform a final walkthrough to confirm your satisfaction, and ensure you’re settled comfortably in your new apartment. Our compassionate approach recognizes this transition’s significance, and we remain available for any post-move adjustments or concerns.
