Partnering With Maloney Moving & Storage: Why Senior Move Managers Recommend Maloney
Senior move managers' work requires precision, compassion, and a reliable network of professionals who can execute a plan without compromising the experience of your clients. When you refer a moving company, we know that you're putting your professional reputation on the line. That's why the moving partner you choose matters as much as the plan you build.
Maloney Moving & Storage has been serving families throughout New Orleans and the surrounding region for over 20 years. As a family-owned company and an authorized Bekins Van Lines agent, we understand the difference between an ordinary move and a senior transition. We've built our senior moving services from the ground up to complement the work of Senior Move Managers — not replace it. From the first phone call to the final box unpacked, our team is an extension of your process, your standards, and your commitment to your clients.
We welcome the opportunity to be the moving company you recommend with confidence.
Our Senior Moving Services
Senior moves are layered in ways that standard residential moves simply are not. They involve more decision points, more logistics, and far more emotional weight. Maloney Moving & Storage offers a full suite of services designed to meet those demands at every stage.
Downsizing Support
Moving from a longtime family home into a smaller residence (whether an apartment, a condo, or a senior living community) almost always involves downsizing. Our team works seamlessly alongside Senior Move Managers to help clients execute the decisions that have already been made, handling the physical work efficiently so your clients aren't exhausted before moving day even begins.
Decluttering and Item Organization
We understand that not everything in a home will make the move. Our team can assist with the logistics of sorting and separating items, coordinating with whatever organizational system you've established during the move management process.
Distribution to Multiple Destinations
Senior moves rarely involve a single destination. Furniture may go to adult children across different households. Donated items need to reach the right charity. Estate pieces may require delivery to a separate storage location or staging area. Maloney Moving & Storage coordinates multi-stop distribution efficiently, so nothing ends up in the wrong place and no one has to make extra phone calls to sort it out after the fact.
Professional Packing Services
Our crews are trained in proper packing techniques with particular attention to fragile items, antiques, and high-value belongings that are common in senior moves. We use quality materials and document contents clearly, so unpacking at the destination is orderly and stress-free for your client.
Secure Short and Long-Term Storage
Timing doesn't always align perfectly. A senior may be waiting for a room to become available at a facility, or their family may need time to sort through items that are leaving the home. Our secure warehouse storage facility in the Elmwood District provides flexible options (from short-term overflow storage to longer arrangements) with the peace of mind that belongings are protected while decisions are finalized.

Not every item in a senior home is a standard box or a piece of flat-pack furniture. Decades of living often mean a collection of items that require extra care and expertise to move safely.
Maloney Moving & Storage is equipped to handle:
- Piano and large instrument moving with proper equipment and trained crew members
- Antiques and heirloom furniture, all packed and transported with the care they deserve
- Fine art and collectibles wrapped, crated, and protected throughout transit
- Large appliances and specialty items, including items that other movers may decline
- Medical equipment and mobility aids coordinated as part of the overall move plan
- Multi-destination estate distributions, including delivering items to family members, estate sale operators, donation centers, and storage facilities as part of a single coordinated move
If there's something specific your client needs moved, ask us. Our experience with complex, high-value, and sensitive moves means we rarely say no.
Silver Certified by Bekins Van Lines & Endorsed by NASMM
Maloney Moving & Storage is Silver Certified through Bekins Van Lines, a distinction that sets us apart from general moving companies operating in this market.
The Bekins Silver Certification program was developed specifically to train moving professionals in the unique needs of older adults. The certification covers best practices for working with seniors, proper handling of lifetime belongings, communication protocols that reduce confusion and anxiety, and crew-level sensitivity training so that every person on our team understands what this type of move means, not just logistically, but personally.
Critically, Maloney Moving & Storage is also a member of the National Association of Senior Move Managers (NASMM), the same professional organization that certifies and supports the work you do. That shared endorsement is not incidental. It reflects a commitment to the same standards and the same client-centered approach that defines quality senior move management.
Maloney Moving & Storage is also a proud member of NASMM. We believe in the value of this organization's work, the standards it upholds, and the community it has built among professionals who are serious about improving the experience of older adults in transition. Our membership is not a marketing checkbox — it's a reflection of how we do business.
When you refer Maloney Moving & Storage, you're referring a company that speaks the same professional language you do.
Why Senior Move Managers Choose Maloney Moving & Storage
We Follow Your Lead
Your plan is the plan. We coordinate directly with you, follow the logistics you've established, and communicate any issues immediately so you're never caught off-guard. Senior Move Managers are the quarterback of these transitions, and we operate as a reliable member of your team, not an outside vendor doing things their own way.
Predictable, Professional Execution
Your clients trust you because you deliver on what you promise. We protect that relationship by showing up on time, completing the scope of work as agreed, and communicating clearly throughout the process. We don't cut corners, and we don't create problems you have to clean up later.
Experience with Complex, Emotional Moves
Our crew members understand that senior moves carry emotional weight. Lifelong possessions, family memories, and significant life changes are all in the room on moving day. We train our teams to be patient, respectful, and professional in every interaction with your client and their family members, even when the day is stressful.
Flexible Service Scope
Some of your clients need a full-service team. Others need targeted help, whether packing only, delivery only, or storage while they wait for a move-in date. We adapt our service offering to fit the plan you've developed, without requiring your client to take a package they don't need.
Local Expertise, National Reach
As a Bekins Van Lines agent, Maloney has access to a nationwide network of hundreds of agents. Whether your client is moving across the state or across the country, we have the infrastructure to manage the logistics end-to-end. You don't have to find another vendor when your client's move crosses a state line.
Secure, Documented Storage
Our facility, located in a no-flood zone, provides safe, monitored warehouse storage for clients who need a bridge between their departure and their destination. Items are catalogued and accessible, so nothing gets lost in transition.
Why Recommending Maloney Reflects Well on You
Every referral you make is a statement about your professional standards. When you send a client to a moving company, you're implicitly vouching for that company's professionalism, their reliability, and the quality of their work.
Maloney Moving & Storage makes your referrals look good.
Our Silver Certification and NASMM membership signal to your clients and their families that you've chosen a vetted, credentialed partner, not just whoever returned your call. When your client has a smooth moving day, when packing is done carefully, and furniture arrives intact, when the crew is patient, and the delivery goes to the right rooms, your client notices. And they attribute that outcome, at least in part, to the professional who put together their team.
Recommending a company that underperforms can damage your reputation, but recommending Maloney Moving & Storage reinforces it.
We are also easy to work with from a professional standpoint. We understand the NASMM community, we respect the move management process, and we don't try to go around you to communicate directly with clients in ways that undermine your role. You remain the point of contact. We support your work.
