How do you downsize a house someone has lived in for forty years without turning move day into a rush? Slowly, mostly. Tyler Hutchins walks the home ahead of time and Carol Hutchins handles the family calls, so by the time the truck shows up, everyone already knows what’s going, what’s staying, and who’s picking up the rest.

The senior move approach

  • Unhurried pace, frequent check-ins during the walkthrough
  • House-to-apartment downsizes across Osawatomie and Paola
  • Donation-run coordination for items not making the move
  • Family-coordination calls handled directly with adult children

Pricing a downsize

Downsizes run on the standard flat bands: 1-bedroom $549, 2-bedroom $999. Larger acreage homes price as a custom figure once Tyler Hutchins walks both addresses. A $75 deposit holds the day. See how apartment moves work.

What’s separate

The senior figure covers the crew, truck, and pads at a patient pace. Full pre-packing and piano handling bill separately. Home.

What’s Included

  • Unhurried pace with frequent check-ins on the walkthrough
  • Tyler Hutchins scopes the home before the figure is written
  • Carol Hutchins handles coordination calls with adult children
  • Donation-run coordination for items not making the move
  • House-to-apartment downsizing across Miami County
  • Same family crew, no unfamiliar faces on a hard day

What Does It Cost?

Run the clock or skip it — a two-mover crew opens at $89/hr, or a flat band by home size starts around $249

The truck, blankets, and dollies never show up as a separate line: $89 for two movers, $119 for three, $149 for four, or a flat figure by bedroom count if you would rather skip the clock entirely. Standard released-value coverage is already built into that number, and Tyler will walk you through the full-value upgrade at the estimate if you want it.

“I called Family Time Moving after Salvation Army said it would take about a week to pick up my twin size bed and mattress. I called them, and they picked up the bed and 2 bags with sheets and comforter within 4 hours on the same day. It was quick and easy. The male representative who took all my information on the phone was friendly and courteous. I recommend these guys to everyone.”

What Sets Us Apart

Why Households Stick With Family Time Moving

Licensed In Kansas, Filed For The Interstate Runs Too

Fully licensed KS household-goods mover, with DOT and MC authority filed for anything crossing state lines — whether it is a two-hour job outside Paola or a long haul north toward Omaha, the paperwork is settled before ever sees the truck back down the driveway.

Coverage Explained Up Front, Not Buried In Fine Print

Every job carries standard released-value coverage, and Tyler walks you through the full-value upgrade at the estimate, not after the truck is already loaded — Dale set that rule in 2009 and nobody has talked him out of it since.

One Family Signing Off On Every Quote

Call on a weekday and Carol answers; call about a bigger job and Dale or Tyler looks over the number personally. Every mover who shows up at your door is either a Hutchins or somebody who has worked alongside the family long enough to be treated like one.

We Know Which Driveways Turn To Mud

Gravel lanes, quarter-mile farm driveways, harvest-season traffic on the two-lane highways — Cole grew up two farms from the Hutchins place and has been running this ground for thirteen years, so none of that gets discovered on move day.

One Phone Call Gets You Dale Or Carol, Not A Call Center

Tyler checks the job against the schedule board, writes up the number with the coverage details spelled out, and Dale or Carol looks it over before it lands in your inbox. Most families hear back the same day.
