BRACE from Framingham can make these applications, but you have to go to their office in person.
When an appointment is scheduled, only two family members can enter the building to choose what they need, and they cannot go back to the facility to get what did not fit in the truck. It is important that you rent a truck from U-Hall to use on the day of the appointment.
