Moving and Storage Coordination in New Orleans

AD Movers does not own a warehouse. For moving and storage in New Orleans, we work with local storage facilities near where you are moving from or to. Your things sit in a unit at the partner facility; our crew does the part that is hard to do yourself: loading the truck, packing the unit so it is easy to get back into, and bringing everything to the new place when it is ready. A few weeks or many months, the unit stays close to home.

What we can store

  • Furniture, boxes, seasonal and holiday items
  • A whole apartment between leases
  • Big pieces: dining tables, dressers, armoires
  • Not stored: food, plants, fuel, paint or anything hazardous

Who this is for

  • Gap between move-out & move-in dates
  • Renovations, home staging, temporary housing
  • Clearing rooms without giving things away

How it works

3 steps
1

We size the unit

Tell us what is going in and for how long. We suggest a unit size and a partner facility near the right side of town, and ask about climate control for wood and mattresses.

2

We pack the unit

Our crew wraps the furniture, loads our truck and stacks the unit with heavy pieces low and the boxes you will want first near the door.

3

We bring it home

When the new place is ready, book a date, and the crew empties the unit and sets everything up in the rooms you choose.

Before you book, we tell you what the unit costs, who it is paid to, and what our move in and move out will run, so nothing is a surprise. The storage itself is at a partner facility, not on our property.

Moving Storage in New Orleans for the Weeks Between Homes

Storage usually comes up because of a date problem. The buyer wants the house on the 30th, but your new lease starts on the 15th of next month. The contractor needs the floors empty before the refinish. A job transfer means you have to be out of the rental before the new house closes. Storage fills that gap, and the hard part is not the unit; it is the two moves on either side of it.

That is the part we handle. The same AD Movers crew loads your home, packs the unit at a local partner facility, and later empties it into the new place. You get one company on both moves and one person to call.

What Happens on Each End

  • Move-in day. Furniture is wrapped in blankets, beds and tables come apart, and we write down what goes into the unit so you know where it all is
  • While it is stored. Your things stay in a unit at the partner facility for as long as you rent it; the facility sets its own access hours and rental terms
  • Move-out day. Give us a date, and the crew unloads the unit, reassembles the beds and puts each piece in the room you point to

Using one mover for both ends matters more than it sounds. The crew that packed the unit knows the dresser drawers are taped shut and the bed hardware is in the bag on the headboard. A second company starting cold has to work that out on the clock.

We also work from units you already rent. One customer wrote on Google: “The guys were nice and did a good job. They moved our furniture and went to storage units we had near by and got the rest of our furniture. I highly recommend them.” (Marilyn B.) If your things are in a PODS-style container instead, our crew can load or unload that too.

When Moving Storage Makes Sense

  • Families between a home sale and a purchase when the closing dates don’t match
  • Homeowners who need rooms empty while floors are refinished or a kitchen is redone
  • Sellers staging a house who want extra furniture out of the photos, then delivered to the new address
  • Job relocations where the employee lands in temporary housing before the household is ready to move in
  • Students and renters leaving for the summer who don’t want to sell their furniture

Storing Furniture in New Orleans Humidity

Anyone who has opened a storage unit here in August knows the smell. Wood furniture, mattresses, leather and electronics hold up best in a climate-controlled unit, and we recommend one for anything you would be upset to find warped or musty. Plastic wrapped tight against wood traps moisture, so we use breathable moving blankets and paper pads on wood pieces instead.

A few habits help no matter which unit you pick: leave a little space along the walls for air, keep boxes off the bare floor, stand mattresses in covers rather than laying things on top of them, and make sure every box is sealed before it goes in.

Moving Storage Questions

What does moving storage cost?

It has two parts: the unit at the partner facility, which depends on size, climate control and how many months you keep it, and our crew’s time for the move in and the move out. Tell us your dates and what is going in, and we lay out both before you book. Nothing is added without your OK.

Can I get something out while it is in storage?

Usually, yes. The facility’s access hours apply, and we will tell you how the unit is set up when you book. Because we pack the boxes you’ll need first near the door and write down what went in, finding the box with the passports doesn’t mean unstacking the whole unit.

Is there a minimum storage time?

The partner facility sets its own minimum rental term, and we tell you what it is before you commit. If your gap is only a few days, call us first: sometimes splitting the move into two dates works better than renting a unit.

Do you own the storage facility?

No. AD Movers is a moving company. We don’t run a warehouse and we don’t keep your things on our property. Storage is at local partner facilities, and our job is the packing, loading and moving on both ends.

What can’t go into storage?

Food, plants, anything that runs on gas, paint, chemicals and other hazardous items. Facilities have their own rules on top of that. Valuables like jewelry, cash and important papers should travel with you, not sit in a unit.
