Relocation Services
Reimagined.

Moving is a physical act. Relocation is a lifestyle transition. We provide white-glove management for corporate transfers, high-net-worth estates, and complex logistics that standard movers can't handle.

Executive Summary

Standard moves involve a truck and a crew. Relocation services involve a dedicated coordinator who manages real estate, temporary housing, military protocols, and legal paperwork. We specialize in "White Glove" handling for assets over $100k in value.

More Than Just Boxes

When a C-level executive moves from New York to London, or a family relocates for a military deployment, a "man with a van" isn't enough. You need logistics.

Relocation implies a higher tier of service. It involves the complete management of your transition from one life to another. At MoveSmart, we act as your General Contractor for moving—coordinating the specialized trades (art handlers, pet nannies, cleaners) so you don't have to.

Corporate Relocation

For HR managers and transferring employees, we speak your language. We understand that a failed relocation costs the company 3x the employee's salary. Our job is to ensure productivity remains high during the transition.

Navigating Your Package

Most companies offer one of three tiers. We optimize all of them:

  • Lump Sum: We use our volume discounts to stretch your dollars further, often saving you 20% off retail moving rates.
  • Direct Bill: We interface directly with your RMC (Relocation Management Company) like Cartus or Sirva to handle the invoicing, so you never pay out of pocket.
  • Core-Flex: We help you choose the "Flex" options (like maid service or lease breakage) that offer the highest lifestyle ROI.

Corporate Policy Decoder

Confused by your HR relocation package? Here is what the industry terms actually mean for your wallet.

Lump Sum

"Here is $10k. Good luck."

Pro: You keep the savings

Managed Move (Direct Bill)

"We will hire the movers for you."

Pro: Zero stress / No upfront cost

Gross-Up

"We will pay the taxes on your move."

Critical: Ask for this!

Make Whole

"We buy your old house if it doesn't sell."

Rare: Top Execs only

White-Glove & Estate Moving

Standard movers embrace speed ("humping boxes"). White-glove movers embrace precision. This service is designed for homes with high-value assets, fine art, or complex architectural features (spiral staircases, marble floors).

Our "White Glove" protocol includes:

Floor Protection

We lay Masonite boarding over all hardwood and neoprene runners over carpets. Not a single scuff is allowed.

Custom Crating

Our carpentry team builds bespoke wooden crates for chandeliers, paintings, and statues on-site.

This is the preferred service for interior designers and estate managers. If you are moving items that cannot be replaced (antiques, heirlooms), do not risk a standard moving company.

Senior Relocation: Downsizing with Dignity

Moving into a retirement community or assisted living facility is an emotional process. It often involves "downsizing"—reducing a 3,000 sq ft home into a 1,000 sq ft apartment.

We partner with NASMM (National Association of Senior Move Managers) certified organizers who assist with the emotional labor of deciding what to keep, what to sell, and what to donate. We plan the new floorplan specifically for accessibility, ensuring favorable furniture placement for walkers or wheelchairs.

Specialized Logistics: Pets & Autos

Families have heartbeats and engines. We move both.

Pet Relocation

Flying a pet in cargo can be dangerous. We offer Private Ground Transport (a dedicated driver who walks your dog every 4 hours) or Flight Nannies who accompany small pets in the cabin. We ensure all USDA vaccination records are compliant for crossing state lines.

Auto Transport

Don't add 2,000 miles to your odometer. We can ship your vehicle on an open carrier (standard) or an Enclosed Carrier (for luxury/classic cars) to protect against road debris.
