Gretna is the Jefferson Parish seat and the second-largest city in the parish, and a move here can be an 1800s shotgun in Old Gretna one day and a Terrytown apartment the next. As a moving company in Gretna, LA since 2013, AD Movers brings background-checked crews, our own truck and hourly local pricing. Fully insured, LPSC #8127, with a ballpark price in about 60 seconds.
The Gretna Moves We Do Most
Old Gretna, once the village of Mechanikham, dates to 1836, and it joined McDonoghville and Gretna as one city in 1913. That history is why the blocks near the river are full of older, narrower houses, while Terrytown and Timberlane to the south are newer ranches and complexes. These are the jobs we run most often here.
The Gretna Historic District covers about 130 acres and more than 700 older buildings. Front steps, tall doors and one long hallway are normal, so we measure the big pieces against the doorways and plan which ones come apart before they go on a dolly.
Second-floor walk-ups in Terrytown complexes and single-story homes in Timberlane move very differently. For an apartment we ask about the stairwell, the gate and how close the truck can park; for a house, the driveway and garage usually make the load quick.
Have a rental truck or a container coming to a narrow Old Gretna street? Book our crew without the truck. Before delivery, check where the container can legally sit, because the walk from it to your door is what sets the hours.
We can pack the whole house or just the kitchen and the breakables the day before, with our own boxes and paper, then unpack at the Gretna address so the boxes leave with us instead of filling the hallway.

Gretna Planning Notes
Most of what decides the hours on a Gretna job is known before move day. These are the four things our office asks about first.
Booking a Gretna Move
Here is the order things happen, from the first price to the last piece set in place.
Tell the online tool how many rooms you have, the steps at each end and both addresses; the Gretna ballpark comes back in about a minute. You can also call 504-237-0855 from 7am to 7pm.
Choose a morning or afternoon start, any day of the week. We go over parking, heavy pieces and any second stop, and the final price is confirmed before move day.
The crew lead walks both homes with you, the team pads and loads, and each piece goes into the room you point to. Tips are optional, and any tip goes 100% to the movers.
The People in Your House
The movers who come to Gretna are AD Movers employees, background-checked, and they answer to the owner. They arrive with pads, dollies, straps, floor runners and door-frame covers, and the same faces stay with your move from the first box out to the last bed frame put back together.

What Comes on the Truck
Full moves ride in AD Movers' own truck, packed by the crew that will unload it. Heavy items such as pianos, gun safes and pool tables come with a specialty charge, and you hear about it at booking so it is not a move-day conversation.
