Mazheika Moving handles senior and assisted-living moves across Cape Cod: downsizing a parent, moving between care levels, and working around a facility's schedule. Owner Andrei Mazheika and a small, steady crew do the work. Families have come to him on the recommendation of Maplewood and Mayflower, and he has moved a resident into Thirwood Place.
How is a senior move different from a regular move?
The truck is usually lighter. The job is not. A move into assisted living often means fitting a lifetime of furniture into one room, so the day includes decisions about what goes, what stays with the family, and what gets donated. The crew has to be patient with those decisions and with a parent who may be anxious about the whole day.
That is why these moves suit a small crew that stays the same from job to job. Reviewers describe the guys as polite, kind and very gentle with important belongings. Nobody is rushing you toward the next appointment.
How does a move between assisted-living facilities work?
Most facilities set the terms: a move-in date, a window for using the elevator or loading area, and sometimes rules about when outside crews can be on the property. Confirm those with the front desk first, then book the move around them.
On the day, the furniture that is coming along goes on the truck, gets carried into the new room and is set where the resident wants it. One Google reviewer hired Andrei to move a 92-year-old mother from one Cape facility to another with more care. Another had him move her mother into Thirwood Place.
“My mom passed and we needed help cleaning out her place. I was referred to Andrei by the assisted living facility. He took care of everything at a very reasonable rate. He even returned a cable box for us. I can't recommend him highly enough.”
What if I live out of state and can't be there?
Many of these calls come from adult children who are hours away. You can talk to Andrei by phone, and the online quote works from anywhere. If you want a starting point before you call, the instant quote tool gives you a price range in about a minute.

Yes. Emptying the place a parent is leaving is a separate job from moving what they keep, and Andrei does both. One family, referred to him by an assisted-living facility, had him clear out a mother's home after she passed. If the job is mostly clearing, see our estate cleanout service. If a lot of the furniture is old or sentimental, read about how we handle antiques and irreplaceable pieces.
What should families do before the move date?
Call the facility first and get three things: the move-in date, the room's measurements, and any rules about elevators and loading areas. Then walk the current home with your parent and mark what is coming, what the family is taking, and what is going. Decisions made a week ahead keep the move day calm.
Photograph the furniture layout your parent is used to and set the new room up the same way where you can. Familiar placement of a chair or a lamp does a lot for someone settling into a new space. Tell the crew about anything fragile or sentimental when you book, so those pieces are wrapped and carried by the same person start to finish.
Where do you do senior moves?
Across the Cape, from Falmouth and Mashpee to Hyannis, Harwich, Chatham and Orleans, and off-Cape to Plymouth, the South Shore and Boston. Andrei is based in Hyannis and the crew works Monday through Saturday, 7am to 5pm.

Yes. Small jobs are welcome. Reviewers say other movers called their job too small or never called back, and Andrei answered right away.
