Tulane emails each new resident a 30-minute check-in slot in early June, and Loyola gives families a timed unloading window in a campus garage. Our college movers in New Orleans read those instructions with you and plan the crew around them, then come back for the May move-out and the summer in storage. For dorm move-in help, the plan starts with the slot your school assigns.
A college year in New Orleans has three busy points for a family: August move-in, the end of the spring semester, and the summer between one room and the next. Our college movers in New Orleans plan around all three.
Tulane, Loyola, Xavier, UNO, Dillard, SUNO: each school sets its own check-in times and unloading rules, and they change from year to year. Forward us the housing email and we plan the truck around it instead of guessing.
After a year or two on campus, plenty of students sign a lease on a shared house or apartment near school. That move runs on the lease date rather than the school calendar, so we schedule it like any apartment move, with the stairs and parking planned ahead.
Families who fly in often buy the mini fridge, the futon or the desk chair after landing. We pick those up from the store and deliver them to the residence hall or apartment, so nothing has to fit in a rental car.
When spring classes end, the room has to be empty by the school's deadline. We load it, take it to a storage unit for the summer through our partners or your own unit, and deliver it to the new room in August.
“Great moving experience: they were quick, handled my stuff with care and very attentive to my instructions on where to put things.”
“Could not recommend more!! Efficient, fast, hard-working, and kind! Handled everything with care & all at a great price.”
“AD Movers was fantastic!! They loaded up my apartment, made a second stop for more furniture, and unloaded everything fast and skillfully. Wonderful company, employees, and customer service!!”
Campus move-in rules change every year, so we do not work from memory. We go through your school's instructions with you: the check-in time, where cars unload, carts and elevators, and whether a box truck can stop near the hall.
Local moves are priced by the hour on our own truck, so one residence hall room is priced as one room. The online tool gives a ballpark in about 60 seconds, and the final price is confirmed before move day.
We work 7am–7pm every day at the same rate. An early start helps when the check-in slot is in the morning, or when move-out falls on the last day the halls are open.
AD Movers is licensed as LPSC #8127 and every full move is insured. If an apartment building asks for proof of a mover's insurance before move day, tell us early so the paperwork is ready.
Enter the residence hall or apartment, the items and the date in our quote tool. The ballpark appears in about 60 seconds, and the final price is confirmed with you before move day.
Share the check-in slot, the floor, and any cart, elevator or unloading rules from the school's email. We set the crew's arrival around that schedule rather than asking the school to bend to ours.
While the student checks in, the crew carries the room up and places the boxes, the TV and any furniture you brought. University furniture stays put, since schools such as Tulane do not let residents remove it.
At Tulane, family cars check in at a tent near Ben Weiner Drive and unload in the Diboll parking structure, and the car has to be out of Diboll by 10pm that night. Loyola has run new-student move-in over two days in mid-August, with check-in at a central spot and unloading in a campus garage on a timed window. At UNO, Pontchartrain Halls residents choose a move-in time in the Residential Life app, and Privateer Place apartments are run by a separate management office with its own rules.
Xavier, Dillard and SUNO each send their own move-in instructions. Whatever the school, forward us the housing email and we will tell you plainly where a moving crew and truck can help and where the campus process takes over, so the plan fits the rules for that year.
Get My Student Move Quote →For college movers in New Orleans, August is the tightest stretch of the year: Tulane and Loyola both move new students in during August, while many off-campus leases near campus turn over at the end of the month.
Tulane check-in slots arrive by email in early June. Once your school's slot or move-in date is in hand, book the crew around it. You can get a ballpark price from the quote tool now and adjust the date when the slot is confirmed.

A college move is priced by the hour on our own truck, so a residence hall room costs less than a full apartment. Stairs, elevator lines and the distance between addresses set the time. Enter the addresses and items at admoversla.com/moving-quote/ for a ballpark in about 60 seconds; the final price is confirmed before move day.
Yes, with a plan built on that year's rules. Tulane gives each new resident a 30-minute check-in slot and has family cars unload in the Diboll parking structure, where a box truck may not be able to follow. We go through the current instructions with you and plan store pickups, carry-up help, or the apartment move after first year.
Yes. A mini fridge, a TV, a small couch and boxes is a normal college move for us. We size the crew to the load and the stairs, and the quote reflects a small job. If some of the items are coming from a store, we can pick them up on the way to campus.
Yes. Pontchartrain Halls residents pick a move-in time in UNO's Residential Life app, and Privateer Place has its own management office, so check with them about where a truck can unload. We also move UNO students between apartments in Gentilly, Lakeview, Mid-City and Bayou St. John.
Yes. Our crews start at 7am, seven days a week, at the same rate any day. Tell us the check-in slot and the drive from where the belongings are, and we set the arrival time so the room is loaded and on the road before the student needs to be at check-in.
Each school sets a move-out deadline after spring finals, and the room has to be empty by then. We load the room, take it to a storage unit over the summer through our partners or your own unit, and deliver it to the new residence hall or apartment in August. Book once the move-out date is posted.
Yes. Many parents book from out of town while the student meets the crew. Put the student's phone number in the booking so the crew lead can reach them, and send the housing instructions ahead of time. The price is confirmed with whoever books, before move day.

We show up on time for the window you give us and carry carefully, so the room is ready before classes start. The price is confirmed before move day, and nothing is added without your OK. That holds for a residence hall room, a first apartment or a May move-out.
