Transitional Moving – Helping people transition to smaller spaces

The Process

Moving is stressful. Once you decide where you want to go, let a professional moving coordinator take care of the rest!

Need to relocate, downsize, or organize? Let us help- it's what we do.

All sorts of questions pop up early in the moving process. What do I want to take? What will fit into my new home? How do I select reliable movers? Do I sell what doesn’t fit in my new home, or maybe donate it to charity? Maybe your parents are the ones moving and you know you wont be able to do it all for them.

We provide a single point of contact from the start to the finish of any move. Our hands-on service will plan, supervise, and coordinate all the details of your transition. Be it downsizing, floor planning, or just hanging of the pictures and making the beds, we take care of everything. We will work with you to ensure that your furnishings are scaled to meet your new lifestyle.

Your Contact - Shelley Chamberlin

Hi, my name is Shelley Chamberlin. As sole proprietor of Transitional Moving, I welcome you to my web site. The mission of my company is to decrease the stress involved in relocating senior citizens.

I have lived in the St. Cloud/Sauk Rapids area for many years. For the majority of my professional career, I worked in the customer service industry. I know how to listen to the needs of my clients, and I understand the culture of central Minnesota. We work hard and take pride in caring for our families. I have experienced families come together to assist family members transition to next stages in life, and it has been a very rewarding journey for me.

Transitional Moving can help with the many steps required to move from your current residences to your next home. I offer a free, one-hour consult to discuss the goals, timelines, and tasks that need to be done to get you moved. My services include organizing, sorting, floor planning, packing and unpacking, arranging and coordinating movers, arranging any shipping, assisting in selling belongings, coordinating donations, final cleaning, and help with any new utility set up.

Each client has unique needs so each job is customized.

I strive to hear my clients say I can’t imagine having to make the move without your help.

Feedback from our previous clients-

Thanks to your help and the supplies you provided, we were able to get the kitchen boxed up in record time. We delivered two van loads of household items to Goodwill, all neatly and safely packed.

I also appreciated your suggestions in preparing the house for sale. We are working through our list of repairs and updates. Your suggestions helped us to identify needs and resources. We hope to have things ready in a few weeks. Thanks for your excellent help!

I recently moved to South Haven. During that process, my husband was hospitalized for 10 days. My wonderful sisters packed my things and they were moved to my new home. I could not motivate myself to start going thru the boxes.

Thankfully, Shelley heard about my circumstances and gave me a call offering her services. How grateful I am for that call. She came to our home, sorted, delivered to proper place and helped me discern on any items I had questions concerning what I should do. I could not be happier with her assistance.

Transitional Moving just recently helped us make the move from a large home where we had lived for the past 20+ years to a much simpler, 55+ Community detached townhome. It turns out a move is far more than just “load up the truck”! At the beginning of the process I really wondered about the necessity for their services. When it was over, I wondered how I could possibly have gotten it done without the help of Shelley and her team.

Packing up the house was just the tip of the iceberg. Shelley found resources for selling and donating the things that stayed behind. She advised us about the opportunities to downsize. She ran errands to places like the cable company. She worked with our realtor on logistical challenges. She directed the moving van company personnel on both ends of our move. Her hard work and personal attention allowed us to continue on with our daily lives while she took care of the many facets of a move.

I would recommend Transitional Moving for anyone making a move. Shelley is a one-of-a-kind dedicated and caring person who brings expertise in downsizing and moving. I will be forever grateful for the work she did for us.
