HOW WE APPROACH SHELTER MOVES
We Understand What Matters
Shelter moves are different. Safety concerns about disclosing destination. Privacy essential during vulnerable transitions. Dignity and respect non-negotiable.
Safety and Security
We keep all location information secure. We don’t communicate details beyond what shelter staff authorizes. We never ask where you’re going or why.
Privacy During Transitions
We don’t ask personal questions. We don’t discuss a client’s situation. We treat every interaction with confidentiality and respect.
Scheduling Flexibility
Shelter programs have specific move-in times. We accommodate requirements. We coordinate entirely through shelter staff.
Dignity and Respect
Residents deserve to be treated as valued individuals. Our team provides professional service with respect.
Understanding Limited Possessions
Some residents move with very little. We don’t judge. Small moves get the same care as large moves.
Support from Program Staff
Moves are coordinated with shelter staff, so residents have support present. We don’t interact directly with clients unless authorized.
PRIVACY & CONFIDENTIALITY
Complete Protection
Privacy and confidentiality are core to everything we do. Every shelter move is handled with strict protocols to protect resident safety and dignity.
Confidential Information
We never ask for personal information beyond what’s essential for the move. All information is kept strictly confidential and shared only with authorized shelter staff.
Secure Route Planning
We plan routes in advance and discuss them only with shelter management. We never disclose destination information, timing, or route details to anyone else.
Staff-Only Communication
We communicate exclusively with authorized shelter staff or management, never directly with residents unless residents and staff explicitly authorize it.
Non-Disclosure Agreements
We can sign non-disclosure agreements or follow shelter-specific confidentiality protocols to ensure maximum protection.
Professional Boundaries
Our team maintains professional boundaries, treats every interaction with respect, and understands the sensitivity of shelter transitions.
TRAUMA-INFORMED SERVICE
Moving with Understanding
Our team is trained in trauma-informed service. We approach every move with sensitivity, respect, and understanding.
- Training – Our team understands challenges residents face and approaches every move with compassion. We never ask why someone is moving to a shelter.
- Respectful Language – We use respectful language and maintain a professional tone.
- Flexibility – Moving can be emotionally challenging. We accommodate requests and adjust timelines if staff requests.
- No Judgment – We don’t judge or ask personal questions. We treat every resident with dignity.
MOVING BELONGINGS AND DONATIONS
Handling Items with Care
Whether moving a resident’s personal belongings to a shelter or moving donated items to a shelter program, we handle all household items professionally and efficiently.
Residential Belongings
Personal items, furniture, clothing, and household goods are packed, protected, and moved carefully.
Donated Items
Shelters often receive donated furniture, clothing, and household items. We move these donations efficiently so programs can distribute them quickly.
Organization
If requested, we organize items, maintain inventory lists, or help organize donations to make them easy for staff to distribute.
Climate-Controlled Storage
If shelter programs need temporary storage for items before distribution, we offer climate-controlled options.
