01 Overview

Senior and Retiree Moving Across the Active-Adult Communities

Palm Beach County is built for retirees, and a huge share of our work is helping them move. A snowbird making the seasonal place permanent. A widow downsizing from a CBS house into a one-bedroom in Valencia. A couple leaving a long-time home for Kings Point or Century Village. Sawgrass Moving and Relocation has handled these moves since 2013, and we run them at the customer’s pace, never our own.

From Boca Raton to Wellington, our South Florida crew sets the entire move as one written number — the figure on the estimate is the figure on move day.

Downsizing, Not Just Hauling

Most retiree moves start with too much furniture for the new floor plan, so the real work is the sorting. We help you walk room by room and build keep, donate and dispose piles before anything goes on the truck, with no pressure to rush a decision. When the new place is smaller, getting that sort right is the difference between a calm move and a crowded one, and we have done it enough to guide it gently.

We Know the 55-Plus Communities

Active-adult and gated communities have their own move rules, and we know them. We handle the gatehouse pass and any clubhouse move-day requirements at Century Village, Valencia, Kings Point and Lucerne Lakes ahead of time, so the truck rolls in cleared and the day stays smooth. Our crews know the narrow interior roads and single-story driveways and treat them carefully.

A Calm Day, the Same Crew Throughout

Patience is the whole point. Our bilingual crews never rush an older customer, and the same team that loads in your old place unloads in the new one, so there are no unfamiliar faces midway through. We reassemble the beds, set up the rooms and get the essentials in place so the first night in the new home is comfortable rather than a sea of boxes. Sawgrass is a licensed Florida FDACS mover running its own trucks; we never hand the job to a broker or a stranger.

One Flat Number, No Meter Anxiety

Retirees on a fixed budget want to know the total before the day starts, so we lead with a flat number that opens at $425 for the smallest moves and is set in writing before we begin. Holding the date takes $115, an amount credited toward your final bill. If you prefer hourly, it runs $165 for two movers and a truck or $225 for three. Coverage is $0.60-per-pound released value standard, full-value available, and up to $1,000,000 in cargo protection per shipment.

How the price gets set

It starts with a short walkthrough or video survey, and from your real inventory we write one flat Palm Beach County rate — no hourly clock hiding anywhere in it. What that quote reads is the whole price, with nothing tacked on once the truck is loaded or the storm rolls through.

02 How we protect your move

Your belongings get handled as carefully as we would handle our own

Pads, shrink film, and floor runners ride on every truck — ready to wrap furniture, guard terrazzo and tile against a sudden afternoon downpour, and cushion the fragile pieces whether the job is a CBS home on slab in a 55-plus community, a Wellington country-club estate, or an oceanfront tower with a freight-elevator reservation.

Quilted pads

Every dresser, table, and headboard is blanketed right where it stands, and that padding goes on well ahead of the moment anything rolls toward the doorway.

Stretch film

Drawers stay shut and upholstery stays clean — wrapped tight against the humidity and any sudden wet-season downpour on the haul from your door to the truck and back.

Floor & doorway guards

Runners go down, rails get wrapped, and jambs get padded as the very first thing we do — so by the time we drive off, your tile, railings, and trim are exactly as untouched as they were that morning.

Built-to-fit crating

Mirrors, glass tabletops, framed art, and flat screens each earn a crate assembled right there in the room, sized corner to corner for an exact, snug fit.

Break-down & rebuild

Bed frames, dining tables, and sectionals come apart so they ride safely, and once they clear the doorway of your new home our crew reassembles every one.

Straps, dollies & gear

A freight-elevator high-rise, a tight condo corridor, or the heaviest single item you own — each one calls up the matching tie-downs and rigging from our truck, and none of that equipment is ever left behind.

03 Why us

Whatever name is painted on the truck is the same name signed on your contract

Book Sawgrass and the truck at your curb is ours, the paperwork is ours, and the bilingual crew wheeling your sofa onto the condo freight elevator draws a Palm Beach County paycheck from us — your move is never sold off. A broker runs the opposite way: they shop your job to whoever underbids that week, then vanish from the picture.

Sawgrass Moving and Relocation
  • The trucks belong to us and so do the full-time, background-checked movers riding in them — we never staff a job with day labor scraped off a listing board
  • Whatever figure we put on paper is the figure you settle — locked in, signed, and exact to the dollar
  • One unchanged crew, from the first box hoisted onto the truck to the last one carried through your new door
  • Florida (FDACS) intrastate moving registration, USDOT/MC on the books for interstate runs, and every single job backed by full insurance and up to $1,000,000 in cargo coverage
  • One Lake Worth office and one point of contact, from your first call to the last box set down
What a broker does
  • Hands your move off to whatever outfit happens to undercut the rest that week
  • Allows the price to balloon the day of the move, padded with extras that were never raised beforehand
  • Sends a crew you have not exchanged a single word with up your staircase, your whole household in their hands
  • Keeps it vague about which insurance policy actually covers a TV that hits the floor
  • Stands a call center in your way, so reaching whoever eventually turns up to load is a maze

Jim S., Palm Springs · Google
★★★★★

“Omar, Trevor, and Luis absolutely killed it. Right on time, worked great together, and fun to talk to. And they were still cheerful even though disassembling my bed was ridiculous. Everything arrived at the new place exactly as it left the first place.”

Questions we hear about this service

My parent is downsizing from a house into a one-bedroom in a 55-plus community. Can you help sort, not just move?
Yes. Downsizing is most of what these moves are about, so we work at your pace to sort keep, donate and dispose before anything loads. We handle the clubhouse and gatehouse rules at communities like Century Village and Kings Point, and we set up the new place, beds together and rooms arranged, so the first night is comfortable.
Are your crews patient with older movers who need to take it slow?
Patience is the job here. Our crews are used to retiree and senior moves and never rush the customer. We walk through decisions room by room, keep the day calm and unhurried, and the same bilingual crew handles both ends so there are no new faces midway through.
How is a downsizing move priced for a retiree on a fixed budget?
We give you one flat number up front, which retirees on a fixed budget appreciate, instead of an open-ended hourly meter. The flat rate opens at $425 for the smallest moves and is set before we begin. A one-time $115 secures the date and is credited toward your final bill, with no surprises on the day.
