Lakeside Shopping Center has sat at Veterans Memorial and Causeway Boulevards since 1960, and the condos, apartments and houses around it make up one of the busiest parts of Metairie. Many of the buildings here have house rules for moves: a certificate of insurance, a reserved elevator, set hours. Tell us your building's rules and we plan the crew to them. AD Movers is LPSC licensed (#8127) and fully insured, with movers near Lakeside working Metairie seven days a week.
Lakeside Area Moves
The Lakeside part of Metairie mixes condo buildings, garden apartment complexes and blocks of single-family houses within a short drive of the mall. Two moves come up again and again: downsizing from a house into a condo, and moving between buildings in the same area. In a building, the rules and the elevator set the pace; in a house, it is the furniture and the driveway.
Going from a three-bedroom house to a two-bedroom condo means deciding what goes before the truck is loaded. Mark what moves, what goes to storage and what is staying behind, and we load in that order so nothing extra rides up the elevator.
Each association sets its own rules. Some want an elevator booked days ahead, limited move hours or a certificate of insurance with specific wording. Send us the rules or the manager's contact; you book the elevator, we send the COI with the details they ask for and bring a crew sized for the window.
Have your own rental truck, or just need heavy furniture moved between floors or units in the same complex? Book the crew alone and pay for their time. We bring pads, dollies and straps.
Packing the kitchen and the china is usually the job people want help with when they downsize. We bring boxes and paper, pack the whole home or selected rooms, and can unpack the kitchen at the condo so it works on the first night.

How We Plan It
Most problems on a condo move come from something nobody asked about ahead of time. These are the four things we ask about.
How It Works
You handle the elevator booking with your building. We handle the paperwork, the crew and the truck.
Start with the form at the top: home or condo size, floor and both addresses. A ballpark appears in about 60 seconds, and you can reserve a date there.
Send us the building rules, the elevator time you reserved and the manager's email. We send the COI, confirm the crew size and arrival time to fit your slot, and confirm the price.
The crew checks in with the front desk if there is one, pads the elevator, wraps furniture, and moves in a steady loop between the unit and the truck, then sets up the new place.
Your Crew
Buildings like to know who is in their halls. Each mover we send has passed a background check and is on the AD Movers payroll, answering to the owner, Adonay Pineda. The crew lead is the one point of contact for the front desk on move day, and checks the hallway and elevator with staff before and after.

Truck and Gear
Full moves arrive on our own truck, with elevator pads, moving blankets, straps and a set of dollies and hand trucks. We ask where the building allows a truck to load and keep fire lanes and driveways open. Around the mall, holiday shopping traffic on Veterans and Causeway is heavy, so a Lakeside Metairie moving company plans the start time around it.

Areas We Serve
From Lakeside we move people across Metairie, into New Orleans, and over the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway, which starts just north of here, to Mandeville and Covington. Long-distance routes out of state leave from here too.
Common Questions
We charge by the hour for local moves, so the crew and the hours decide it. Your home size, floor and addresses go into the online tool, and it returns a ballpark within about 60 seconds. In a condo building the elevator, the walk from the loading area and the building's move hours shape the time most. The price is confirmed before the move, and extras need your sign-off.
Yes. We are licensed by the state as LPSC license #8127 and fully insured. Associations differ on what the certificate must say, so send us the manager's email or the written requirements and we issue the COI to match before move day. You reserve the elevator with the building.
Ask four things: the allowed move days and hours, how to reserve the elevator, whether a COI is needed and what it must list, and where the truck may load. Also get the elevator door and cab size. With those answers we can size the crew, set the start time and spot any furniture that will not fit.
We find out before move day by comparing the elevator door and cab size with your largest pieces. Some sofas fit stood on end; others come apart at the legs or arms. If a piece cannot go up by elevator or stairs, we tell you in advance so you can decide whether to store it, sell it or replace it.
Yes. Before the date, mark what goes to the condo, what goes to storage and what stays. We load in that order, and if part of it goes to a storage unit we make that a planned second stop. Packing help for the kitchen and china is available.
Book once you have your building's move date and elevator slot, since those set everything else. Month-end dates fill first. Tight timeline? Ask about same-day or last-minute help at (504) 237-0855; it depends on a crew being free. Moves run from 7am to 7pm, any day of the week.
Every part of Metairie, from the Clearview area to Fat City, Old Metairie and Bucktown, plus Kenner, Harahan, River Ridge and all of New Orleans. We also move people across the Causeway to the Northshore and run long-distance routes to Houston, Dallas, Atlanta and Chicago.
Your building gets the COI it asks for, the crew is planned around its move window, and the confirmed price holds unless you okay extra furniture or a storage stop. Anything wrong? Let the office know that day, and the owner follows up with you personally.
