Senior moving help in Richmond, VA

Porchlight helps you find the right community, and our moving partner Gentle Transitions helps your family get there.

One plan, from the search to moving day

Moving a parent to assisted living usually means two big jobs at once: choosing the right community and packing up a home that may hold decades of memories. Porchlight focuses on the first, and we partner with Gentle Transitions for the second, so your family has local help with both.

  1. We help you choose the community

    Porchlight talks with your family, learns what your loved one needs, and helps you compare independent living, assisted living and memory care options around Richmond and Central Virginia.

  2. We connect you with the moving team

    Once a move-in date is set, we introduce you to Gentle Transitions, a Richmond senior moving company, and share what we know about the new apartment and the community's move-in rules.

  3. They handle the hands-on work

    Gentle Transitions works with your family directly on downsizing, sorting, packing, moving and setting up the new space. Their services and pricing are their own, and they will explain them to you.

  4. We stay in touch through move-in

    We keep checking in with your family and the community through the move so questions get answered and nothing falls through the cracks.
