LaPlace is the largest community in St. John the Baptist Parish — about 28,800 people at the 2020 census — on the east bank of the Mississippi, roughly 25 miles west of New Orleans, where I-55 ends at I-10. Many homes here were repaired or rebuilt after Hurricane Isaac in 2012 and Hurricane Ida in 2021. Our LaPlace moving company crews drive out in our own truck, protect those new floors and charge local moves by the hour. Looking for LaPlace movers? Call (504) 237-0855.
LaPlace Moves We Take On
LaPlace is known as the Andouille Capital of the World and has held its Andouille Festival every October since 1972. It is also a town that has had to rebuild: Isaac flooded about 5,000 houses in 2012, and Ida’s storm surge from Lake Pontchartrain did heavy damage again in August 2021. A move here can mean going back into a repaired house, leaving for higher ground, or relocating closer to work in the city.
New flooring and fresh drywall are easy to scuff. We lay runners from the front door to each room, pad door frames and the corners of new walls, and carry furniture instead of dragging it. If the house now sits higher with new exterior steps, tell us so we bring enough hands for the stair carry.
Moving to Kenner, Metairie or New Orleans for work, or out to LaPlace for more house? One AD Movers crew loads, drives the long I-10 bridge across the swamp and unloads at the other end, so you are not paying two companies or waiting on a second truck.
If you rented a truck or have a container in the driveway on Belle Terre or in Cambridge, book the crew by the hour to load or unload it. They pack it tight and strap it in sections so the load holds on the interstate.
Some LaPlace moves happen in two stages — out of a house that needs work, into storage, then back in. We can pack the house, move it to a storage unit through our storage partners, and bring it back when the work is done.

What We Sort Out Ahead of Time
LaPlace moves usually cover more road than a move inside the city, so the time on the clock depends on planning. Here is what the crew lead goes over with you.
How It Works
No home visit needed. The form and a short call cover nearly everything.
Type in home size, large items and the two addresses for a ballpark in about 60 seconds. Mention anything special — new exterior stairs, a storage unit stop, a gun safe or piano.
Before the date we confirm three things with you: the final price, the arrival window and any subdivision rules. Saturday and Sunday moves are billed at the same hourly rate as weekdays.
The crew protects floors and doorways, wraps and loads the furniture, makes the drive, then sets each room up. Tips are up to you, and every bit of one goes to the movers.
Your Movers
Since 2013 AD Movers has finished more than 1,000 moves around New Orleans, and the crews who come to LaPlace are our own employees, not contractors. The crew lead walks the house first and points out what is new — fresh flooring, new door frames, a rebuilt staircase — so everyone knows where to protect. Beds and tables come apart with their hardware bagged and labeled, and they go back together in the new rooms before the crew leaves.

What the Truck Carries
A full LaPlace move rides in an AD Movers truck driven by the crew, from your old door to your new one. Packed on board: padded blankets, shrink wrap, rolls of floor runner, jamb and corner guards, four-wheel and appliance dollies, ratchet straps, and the hand tools to break furniture down. Boxes, tape and wardrobe cartons come along if you order them when you book.

Areas We Serve
We move people within LaPlace, upriver to Reserve and Garyville, downriver to Norco and Destrehan, and along I-10 to Kenner, Metairie and New Orleans. I-55 starts in LaPlace too, so we also handle moves north toward Hammond and Ponchatoula, and long-distance routes out of state.
Common Questions
The quote reflects the house you described. Turn up a shed full of tools or a second storage unit on the day, and the crew lead walks you through the extra time and lets you decide. If anything about your LaPlace move is not right, call us the same day and the owner, Adonay Pineda, will get back to you himself.
