Teresa Ashline founded TLC For Seniors Moving with her grandmother in 1974. Her business was the first comprehensive solution in the nation exclusively dedicated to older adults downsizing and relocating. They were faced first hand in their own challenges with the dispersals and disposal of downsizing a lifetime of possessions after her grandfather had passed.
Teresa envisioned a special service that would provide a resource to support such needs of seniors relocating accompanied by her expert hands on assistance to seniors and their families during the transfer process with all aspects of moving help such as: organizing, downsizing, estate sales and dispersals, unwanted items disposal and carting to the dump and items for donations, packing and unpacking, professional quilt wrapping of furniture and for seniors of any size job even one just item.
LIKE FATHER, LIKE DAUGHTER
Inspired by her father: a long established Albany mover- Teresa has facilitated thousands of moves for seniors to over 200 Albany area retirement communities including assisted living. She is recognized by The New York State Office For The Aging for her work in elder care and as a pioneer in administrating moving services for seniors in Albany.
Today: TLC For Seniors sets the standards in the senior relocation field as the first service of its kind in Albany Schenectady, Troy, Saratoga, Glens Falls and Catskill. Its concepts, business model and service techniques have been decorated and awarded by many and is backed by Ashline Moving Labor- a leading provider of moving help since 1918. We are members of The National Association Of Seniors In Transition and we have an A+ rating with the Better Businesses Bureau.

In all likelihood, you will find that an on-site estimate based on a physical survey
of the items that you plan on moving will be more accurate than an estimate that you
provide to your mover over the telephone or the Internet. So, unless circumstances warrant
(normally due to the time constraints of a short-notice move or because you are only shipping
a few items) think carefully before you elect to waive the required physical survey
of your shipment.
If you are receiving a non-binding estimate, the charges that your mover assesses on your
shipment must be based on the actual weight of the shipment. Your mover may not lawfully
assess transportation charges on shipments with non-binding estimates on cubic feet, volume,
time (hourly) or on any basis other than weight. Also, the federal regulations require that
shipment weights must be determined on a state certified scale with a copy of the weigh
master’s tickets provided to you in support of the final invoice.
