Leaving their abuser is the most dangerous time for survivors because it’s nearly impossible to locate housing, communicate with landlords or realtors, schedule movers, and pack essentials without alerting their partner. Underground Moves understands that it is crucial to embark on this potentially volatile period with a strategy that utilizes the user’s safety plan and outsources the logistical legwork.

Imagine doing all the tasks listed above without a phone, private computer, or access to your earnings. That’s the reality many survivors face, forcing them to stay in an unstable and violent situation. That’s why Underground Moves does it for them:

  • Planning a safe method for packing necessities.
  • Locating safe, secure permanent or temporary housing.
  • Applying for occupancy and communicating with landlords.
  • Scheduling movers on a day the abuser is absent.
  • Securing transportation or a rental car.
  • Providing ongoing support, helping unpack, set up security systems, and anything else the survivor needs to feel safe.
