A senior move isn’t measured by speed, it’s measured by getting it right. DSL Moving runs a patient downsizing crew for Norwood and Cincinnati-area retirees moving into a smaller place, with the same COI paperwork and freight-elevator booking used on every apartment job. Melissa Ferring lines up donation-run pickups before the truck backs in.
The senior move protocol
- Slower pace, with frequent check-ins during the inventory walk
- House-to-apartment downsizes with the COI already on file
- Donation-run coordination with Cincinnati-area charities
- Family-coordination calls handled directly with adult children
- A furniture right-sizing consult before the figure is signed
Same patient pace, same signed figure – Melissa Ferring keeps family updated at every step, not just on move day.
Pricing a Cincinnati downsize
House-to-apartment downsizes run on the standard flat bands: 1-bed $299, 2-bed $649. Larger Hamilton-area estates price as a custom figure once Trent Oberholtzer walks both addresses. A $95 deposit holds the day, refundable within 72 hours. See how apartment moves work.
What’s separate
The senior figure covers the crew, truck, pads, and COI at a patient pace. Full pre-packing and piano handling bill separately, and estate-sale coordination isn’t part of the service. Home.

What Does It Cost?
Pick the clock or skip it — a two-mover crew starts at $99/hr, or lock a flat band by home size from $299
Either way the truck, blankets, and dollies ride free in the number: $99 for two movers, $139 for three, $179 for four, or a flat rate by bedroom count if you would rather skip the clock. Whatever DSL Moving writes on the quote is what shows up on the invoice — nothing gets added after the truck is loaded.
