Caring Transitions of LaGrange – Oak Park

Specialties

Caring Transitions specializes in the fine art of helping older adults — and others — downsize, whether they’re moving to a senior living community or elsewhere. Our services include decluttering, floor planning, helping people decide what to take along, packing, move management and resettling/​unpacking.

Additionally we help older adults and their families maximize the the value of what’s left behind via estate sales, online auctions, donation and/​or disposal/​home clean-​outs. We are a comprehensive resource for emptying a home and getting it set for the real estate market.
