Moving Garden District homes since 2013

Garden District New Orleans Moving Company

Greek Revival and Italianate houses, antiques and tall front steps

The Garden District sits between St. Charles Avenue and Magazine Street, and most of its houses went up in the 1800s with high ceilings, deep porches and furniture built to match. A move here means curbs lined with parked cars, walking tours gathering at Washington and Prytania, and antiques nobody can replace. We settle the truck spot and the start time first, then pad and carry each piece out by hand.

Serving Prytania Street, St. Charles Avenue, Lafayette Cemetery, Joseph Street, Toledano Street & nearby areas.

Garden District Work

Moving Antiques, Mansions and Carved-Up Units

Here the street decides half the plan. Prytania carries parked cars on both sides, Magazine fills with shoppers through the day, and the St. Charles streetcar runs along the district's lake side. Once we know where the truck can sit, the rest is wrapping, carrying and loading in the right order.

🏠

Local House Moves

Whole-house moves out of Greek Revival and Italianate homes and raised center-hall cottages, room by room, with each piece labeled for the room it goes to at the new address.

🤝

Antiques & Heavy Pieces

High ceilings meant tall furniture: armoires, pier mirrors, marble-top dressers. Marble tops come off and ride on edge, mirrors travel upright, and we send enough movers that nothing tall comes down the porch steps with only one person on it.

💪

Labor Only

Bringing your own rental or a PODS container? Our crew loads or unloads it for you and can rearrange heavy pieces inside the house. You arrange the vehicle and where it parks; we don't supply a truck on labor-only jobs.

📦

Packing for Big Houses

A house this size holds years of china, crystal and books. We bring cartons, paper and wrap and pack the whole house, or only the fragile rooms, a day or two before the truck comes.

How We Work Here

What to Expect From a Garden District Crew

AD Movers has done local moves since 2013, and the owner, Adonay Pineda, still takes the calls when something needs his attention. This is how a job in these blocks runs.

📋
An Hourly Price You Agree to First
Your address and home size go into the online tool, which returns a ballpark in about a minute. The final price is agreed before move day, and no charge is added unless you say yes.
🏅
Licensed & Fully Insured
Our state license is LPSC license #8127, and the insurance on a full move runs from the first carry off the porch to the last piece set in place.
🎯
Timed Around Tours and Parades
Walking tours meet near Lafayette Cemetery No. 1 at Washington and Prytania, and Carnival parades roll down St. Charles. We start early, park on a side street when Prytania is full, and steer Carnival-season moves away from parade days.
🤝
Floors, Banisters and Plaster
Runners go over old wood floors, banisters and newel posts get padded, and armoires are wrapped inside the room so a bare corner never meets an old plaster wall.

How It Works

From Ballpark to Move Day in the Garden District

Get a number, settle the details, and the crew handles the carrying.

See a Ballpark

Fill in the form at the top of the page. The ballpark appears on screen, and you can call (504) 237-0855 afterward if you want to talk it through.

Settle the Date and the List

Tell us about the antiques, the piano, the number of porch steps and which floor you are on. We pick a start time and a curb plan for your block, and settle the final price with you ahead of the move.

Wrap, Carry, Set Up

The crew brings pads, dollies, straps and jamb guards, wraps each piece in the room it came from, and reassembles beds and tables at the new place.

Your Garden District Crew

Background-Checked Crews for Fine Furniture

Everyone on the truck is a background-checked AD Movers employee. Gilt mirrors, marble-topped tables and old pianos need two people and a plan, so we measure the doors before lifting and take heavy pieces down the steps one at a time. A one-bedroom over a Magazine Street shop gets the same crew and the same care.

Trucks and Gear

Where the Truck Parks on Your Block

Most of these houses have no driveway, so the truck goes to the nearest legal curb, often a cross street like First, Third or Washington when Prytania is packed. Every truck carries blankets, dollies, hand trucks and straps. We are a licensed New Orleans mover under LPSC #8127, and we do not block a neighbor’s driveway to save a few steps.

Common Questions

Garden District Moving FAQ

What does a Garden District move cost with AD Movers?
Local moves are hourly. The hours come from the size of the house, the number of movers, the porch steps and stairs, how far the truck sits from the door, and how many antiques need extra wrapping. A ballpark shows up online within about a minute, and the final price is confirmed with you in the days before the move.
Is AD Movers licensed and insured for Garden District homes?
Yes. AD Movers carries LPSC license #8127 from the Louisiana Public Service Commission, plus insurance on every full move. Some of the big houses here are now condos, and their boards may want a certificate of insurance before move day. Tell us who needs it and we will have it ready.
How early should I book movers for a Garden District home?
Weekdays are usually easier to get than Saturdays or the last days of the month. If your date falls in Carnival season, ask early: St. Charles is on the parade route, and we want a morning slot or a day with no parades nearby. Call (504) 237-0855 to check a specific date.
Can you move a Garden District condo or apartment too?
Yes. Many large houses here were split into apartments and condos, often with a narrow back stair or a shared entry. We measure that stair before move day, pad the shared hallway, and keep the entry clear for other residents. Labor-only loading and full or partial packing are also available.
How do you protect antiques, mirrors and marble?
We time moves around Garden District's tourist foot traffic and plan for tight street access where oversized trucks need precision maneuvering. Plus, we're transparent about pricing, licensed & insured in Louisiana, 4.8★ rated on Google with 115 reviews, and we've been moving families since 2013.
Which neighborhoods near the Garden District do you cover?
All of New Orleans, including Uptown, the Irish Channel, the Lower Garden District, Mid-City, Lakeview, Gentilly, Algiers, the Marigny, the Bywater and the French Quarter, plus Metairie, Kenner and the other parishes around the city. Long-distance routes out of New Orleans are available too.
What time of day is best for a Garden District move?
An early start helps. Walking tours gather around Washington Avenue and Prytania Street during the day, and Magazine Street fills with shoppers and delivery trucks. Starting in the morning gets the truck to the curb before the blocks crowd up and leaves more of the day for setting up at the new place.
Can you move a piano down Garden District porch steps?
Yes. A piano is one of four items, with gun safes, pool tables and hot tubs, that carry a specialty charge for the added crew and equipment. Tell us how many porch steps there are, whether the walk turns, and the type of piano, and we will plan the crew and gear before move day.
