Estate & Move Team Member General Labor

Caring Transitions of East Stroudsburg is seeking individuals who are interested in part-time, casual, flexible employment to assist with relocation services and the coordination, sorting, and staging of items for estate sales and online auctions in East Stroudsburg and surrounding areas. The ideal candidate will be friendly, customer service oriented, and have a passion for serving others. He/she must be in good physical condition as there could be repetitive lifting and bending, as well as the possibility of working in a dusty/dirty environment. Empathy, honesty, integrity and reliability are paramount and hired employee must successfully pass a criminal background check. Candidate must have cell phone, as well as reliable transportation and GPS/Google maps accessibility in order to travel to various job sites. Hours are as needed and no minimum number of hours is guaranteed. Must be available weekdays and weekend days, as needed.

Caring Transitions helps people, primarily seniors, during times of transition. This can be a move, a divorce, a death, or any major life change. Here are some of the different types of jobs we do:

• Sorting and organizing: we work with the client to go through their things, helping them decide what to keep, donate, discard, etc.
• Planning: helping clients decide what items they can fit in their new space.
• Packing: Carefully wrapping and boxing up items to be moved.
• Moving and resettling: Overseeing movers and making sure items are moved as planned. Resettling involves unpacking the clients' belongings in their new space. Although we can estimate how long this will take, it may run over and we must stay until the job is complete.
• Online Estate Sales: We put items into lots, photograph them, and write descriptions using a laptop computer. Lots are then tagged and left until pickup day. The lots are listed on Caring Transitions online auction site. Pickup days usually take place on a Saturday (this is USUALLY the only time we work on weekends, though emergency moves could require weekend hours). The customers who won the auction lots arrive to pick up their items. Before their arrival, we collect their lots so they are ready when they get there. When all items are picked up, we package leftover items for donation, discard any trash, and sweep floors and vacuum carpets, leaving home ready for next occupants.
• Cleanouts: There are often instances where we must clean out a home. This includes those with light hoarding situations. They can often be dusty, dirty, and have unpleasant conditions and/or odors. These situations often require compassion and understanding toward the individuals involved.

Each and every job is different. Our goal is to do whatever we can to take the stress out of difficult situations for those involved. The work we do is hard, not always pleasant, but always very rewarding. The client is our most important asset, and we do whatever we can to ease their stress, always. The job areas include Stroudsburg, East Stroudsburg, Tobyhanna, Mount Pocono, Hawley, Milford and towns in between. Thank you for your interest in Caring Transitions. Caring Transitions is an equal opportunity employer.
