AD Movers' furniture movers in New Orleans take one armoire up a turning Mid-City staircase, a sectional out of an Uptown shotgun, or a full house of beds, dressers and dining sets across the river. Every piece is pad-wrapped on our own truck, beds and tables come apart and go back together, and the crew are AD Movers employees who answer to the owner.
Most furniture calls we get fall into three groups: the piece that will not fit through the door, the bedroom that has to come apart, and the old piece nobody in the family wants to touch. Here is how our crews handle each one, whether the job is a single sofa or a full house.
Sectionals separate at the brackets and go out one section at a time. Feet come off, and a long couch can be stood on end and turned through a narrow door or a tight landing. Sleeper sofas get the fold-out frame tied shut so it cannot spring open on the stairs.
Bed frames and headboards come apart, with the bolts bagged and taped to the rails they came from. Dresser drawers stay in and get wrapped shut, or come out to lighten a stair carry. Armoires with a removable crown or mirror have those parts padded and carried on their own.
Marble tops lift off and ride on edge, padded, never laid flat. Grandfather clocks travel with the weights and pendulum packed separately. Pianos, gun safes, pool tables and hot tubs carry a specialty charge, and it is shown on your quote before you book.
AD Movers has 200+ reviews across Google, Yelp, Thumbtack, Angi and Hire a Helper, and a 4.8★ rating on Google from 115 reviews. These three Google reviews talk about the furniture itself.
“Prompt, courteous, took good care in moving this heavy china cabinet.”
“Short and sweet review. The company was very punctual and professional. I moved into a third floor apartment, and all of my heavy solid wood furniture was put into place with not even a scratch.”
“Wonderful experience. Movers were very helpful and even got a large treadmill downstairs without having to disassemble. Great group of workers!”
Furniture gets hurt in doorways and on stairs far more often than on the truck. So most of the prep for furniture moving in New Orleans happens in your house, before the first piece is lifted.
Each piece gets moving pads and stretch wrap in the room where it sits, so the corners are covered before they pass a door frame. Glass doors and mirrors get cardboard corners or a mirror carton. Pads and wrap come on the truck as part of the job, not as an add-on.
A single couch, a dresser from a relative's house, a table bought at an estate sale: we take those calls. The crew is sized to the item and the quote shows the time it should take, so a small job is priced as a small job.
Floor runners go down along the path, door jambs get padded and banister rails get covered before the heavy pieces move. Many older New Orleans houses still have original wood floors and plaster walls that mark easily, so this step is not skipped to save time.
This is what happens between your first message and the last piece set down in its new room.
List the pieces, the stairs or elevator at each end, and both addresses. The online tool gives a ballpark in about 60 seconds. We confirm the final price before move day, and nothing is added without your OK.
The crew walks the route from each room to the truck first, lays runners and pads the door frames, then wraps and carries. Heavy pieces go against the truck wall and get strapped so the load does not shift on the drive.
At the new place you point, we set. Beds and tables are rebuilt, the wrap comes off and leaves with us, and the crew walks the rooms with you before they go.
The people lifting your furniture are background-checked AD Movers employees who answer to owner Adonay Pineda, not day labor found for the job. Our furniture movers in New Orleans have worked this city's houses since 2013: raised homes with steep front steps, shotguns with no hallway, and walk-up apartments with turning stairs.
In a shotgun house the rooms open into one another with no hallway, so a long piece has to turn through several doorways in a row. The crew measures the tightest opening before lifting and takes off legs, feet or doors when a piece will not clear.
Four-wheel dollies, a hand truck, furniture sliders, straps, moving pads and stretch wrap, plus the hand tools to take beds and tables apart. Heavy pieces are rolled or carried, never dragged across a floor.
Local New Orleans furniture moving is priced by the hour on our own truck, so time is what moves the price. Time goes up with stairs and no elevator, a long walk from the truck to the door, pieces that must come apart, and a second pickup stop. Time goes down with clear paths, emptied drawers and a parking spot near the door.
There is no fuel surcharge and the rate is the same on weekends. Pianos, gun safes, pool tables and hot tubs carry a specialty charge shown on the quote. Tips are optional and go 100% to the movers. If you want furniture movers in New Orleans who settle the price before move day, start with the online tool.
AD Movers holds LPSC license #8127, and every full move is insured, from one chair to a whole house across New Orleans and the greater metro area.
Our furniture movers work across New Orleans and the metro, including the areas below. The detail to tell us about is parking: a narrow one-way street, a shared driveway or a building loading zone changes how far each piece has to be carried.
Moving one piece out of a second-floor walk-up? When you quote, tell us the floor, whether the stairs turn, and how close the truck can park. The crew plans the carry before they arrive instead of working it out on your landing.
Straight answers to what New Orleans customers ask before they book a furniture move.
Local furniture moves are hourly on our own truck, so the price follows the time: how many pieces, the stairs at each end, what has to come apart, and the drive between addresses. The online tool gives a ballpark in about 60 seconds, we confirm the final price before move day, and nothing is added without your OK. Same rate on weekends, no fuel surcharge.
Yes. A single sofa, a dresser from a relative's house, or a few pieces out of a storage unit are all jobs we take. The crew is sized to the item. Tell us the piece, its rough size and the stairs at both ends, and the quote reflects a small job rather than a full house move.
Yes. Pianos, gun safes, pool tables and hot tubs carry a specialty charge because they take extra crew, equipment and time, and that charge is on your quote before you book. Heavy everyday pieces such as solid wood armoires, china cabinets, sleeper sofas and king beds are part of a normal hourly move.
Yes. Bed frames, bunk beds, dining tables, desks and many bookshelves come apart at pickup and are rebuilt at delivery. Hardware is bagged, labeled by piece and travels with that piece. The time spent is part of the hourly move. Flat-pack furniture often moves faster left assembled, when it fits through the doors.
Each piece is wrapped in moving pads and stretch wrap in its room before it moves. Floor runners go down on the walking path, door frames are padded and banisters covered. Mirrors and glass get cardboard corners or a carton. On the truck, heavy pieces are strapped to the wall so the load cannot shift.
Yes. Marble tops are lifted off, padded and carried on edge, then set back once the base is in place. Armoire crowns and mirrors come off and travel separately. Grandfather clocks move with the weights and pendulum packed apart. For a piece that cannot be replaced, tell us when you quote so the crew plans extra time for it.
Yes. We pick up from stores, estate sales, storage units and family members' homes and deliver to yours on our own truck. Each extra stop adds time, so list every address when you quote. The crew wraps the piece at pickup and places it in the room you choose at drop-off.
One piece or a full household, wrapped, carried and placed. For furniture movers in New Orleans, get a ballpark price in about 60 seconds, and we confirm the final price with you before move day.
How long does a furniture-only move take?
One piece across town is a short job; a full bedroom or living room set takes longer. Stairs, disassembly and the drive set the time, and your quote shows the estimate.
How far ahead should I book a furniture move?
For one or two pieces, a few days' notice usually works, and same-day is possible when a crew is free. For a full house, book as soon as you know the date, since the end of the month is when most leases turn over.
Is AD Movers licensed and insured in Louisiana?
Yes. AD Movers is licensed by the Louisiana Public Service Commission as LPSC license #8127, and every full move is insured.
What should I do before the furniture crew arrives?
Empty drawers that hold heavy or loose items, take wall mirrors down if you can, and hold a parking spot near the door. Point out any piece with a loose leg or an old repair so the crew lifts it from the right place.
