Bywater runs from the Homer Plessy Way tracks (the old Press Street) to the Industrial Canal, and from the river up to Florida Avenue. Lots are narrow and driveways are rare, so a Bywater moving company has to plan the curb before it plans the crew. Our Bywater movers work out the truck spot, the front steps and the tightest doorway before move day.
Bywater moving services
Almost nothing between the tracks and the canal has a driveway. Each job here starts with two questions: where can the truck legally sit, and will the box spring make it through the front door, or does it have to go on edge. We answer both before move day, not on it.
Shotgun singles and doubles, Creole cottages and the odd camelback whose back stair was built for people who owned a lot less furniture. We size the crew to the doorways and steps, not just the square footage.
Creole cottages sit low near the banquette, a step or two up. Shotguns are usually raised on piers with a full flight of front steps and no side access. We send the 20-foot truck here because a 26-footer struggles to make the turns on many of these blocks, and we stage at the corner when the block is full.
Rented a truck or waiting on a POD? We load it, unload it or rearrange the house. Before the container is dropped, we'll tell you where it can realistically sit, since there's rarely a driveway to put it in.
Older Bywater houses have little or no closet space, so things live on shelves and walls: records, framed prints, kitchen glass. We bring boxes, paper and wrap for the whole house or only those pieces.

What Moving in the Bywater Actually Takes
Our crews have been loading trucks on these streets since 2013. You see it in the first ten minutes: either the crew already knows the truck has to stage at the corner, or they work it out while your neighbors wait behind the truck.
How It Works
Staying in Bywater or leaving for another part of the metro, the booking goes the same way.
Fill in the quote form near the top of this page. A ballpark appears on screen in about a minute; you can book from there or call with questions.
Pick a date and tell us what we should know: how many front steps, whether the block fills up with parked cars, any piece you already doubt will fit the door. We confirm the price and the plan ahead of time.
The crew turns up inside the window we gave you, carrying blankets, dollies, straps and door-jamb pads. They wrap everything indoors, take it down the steps, and at the new place put each piece in whichever room you name.
Your Bywater Crew
The people at your door are AD Movers employees who have passed a background check, and they answer to owner Adonay Pineda. They know which Bywater blocks fill with parked cars by the evening and which corners have room to stage. From a one-bedroom half of a double near St. Claude to a full house near Crescent Park, the routine is the same: wrap, pad, carry, set up.

Equipped for Any Bywater Move
A smaller truck still has to carry the full kit: hand trucks, blankets by the stack, four-wheel dollies, straps, door-jamb pads and the tools to take apart bed frames. For most Bywater moves one trip is enough; for a bigger house we tell you up front if it will take two.

Areas We Serve
Plenty of Bywater moves go a short way, to the Marigny, St. Roch or Holy Cross. Others head to Uptown, Metairie, the Westbank or across the lake to the Northshore, and some leave Louisiana.

We turn up inside the window we agreed on, we protect your house and your things, and any change to the price is explained and agreed with you before it happens. If anything goes wrong, say so the same day and you will hear directly from Adonay Pineda, who owns the company.
