Moving into a smaller place in Kansas City

A smaller place does not get a smaller sofa. The unload door is the job. Measure the well before we pad the sectional. Senior downsizing is the patient keep-versus-leave conversation. How to thin out is the donate run. This page is the house that is going into less square footage. Two ZIP codes: Get my price.

Measure the new door before you keep the old sofa

• Hall, landing, and elevator door — furniture that will not turn, elevator reservations
• Town home or condo path — town homes, HOA
• Walk-up floor at the new end — walk-ups, stairs and tight turns
• What will not fit — mark it now — what you are not taking
• Overflow that is still keep: local storage — storage, not interstate

Photos of the new doorway and the old piece beat “it will be fine” — photos that get a written price. A sofa that came in through a garage in 1998 may not turn in a Midtown hall — Midtown, Waldo. Partial leftover at the old house is a different job — partial moves. Two old addresses: split pickup.
