Your furniture is packed into a truck reserved for your household and unloaded in Dallas-Fort Worth by the people who loaded it. We're a licensed and insured New Orleans to Dallas moving company: a walkthrough sets the flat price, the delivery day is written down, and the truck never stops at a warehouse.
Instant Price Estimate
A Dallas price is built from what's actually in your home. The tool below asks about size, access and packing and gives a ballpark figure in about 60 seconds. One visit in person turns that into a flat price before loading day, and that flat price is what you settle at your Dallas door. No reweigh, no extra line items.

How Our Pricing Works
Bedrooms, stairs or an elevator at each end, packing or not. The Dallas ballpark shows up on the page without waiting on anyone to call you back.
A crew lead looks at the furniture, the closets and the parking situation. Over 505 miles of I-49 and I-20, a price based on guesses is no use to either of us.
Say yes once and the Dallas price is done. Fuel isn't billed on top, there is no reweigh, and the number doesn't climb when the truck reaches Plano or Uptown.
Most Dallas moves are delivered the day after loading, and big homes within two days. The day is fixed ahead of time, weather allowing, instead of a one-to-three-week wait.
The online figure is a ballpark. Your Dallas flat price is confirmed at the in-person visit, because what you own, the stairs or elevators, packing and your date can all push it one way or the other.
Dallas-Bound Moves
The usual way to Dallas is I-10 to Lafayette, I-49 north past Alexandria and Natchitoches to Shreveport, then I-20 west, a little over 500 miles. The delivery end varies a lot: Uptown towers book loading docks by the hour, Plano houses often come with a full garage, and Deep Ellum walk-ups mean stairs.
Anything from a studio to a 4-bedroom house, moved from your door in Greater New Orleans to Dallas, Plano, Frisco, Irving, Richardson or McKinney. All of it fits on one truck or we tell you at the walkthrough.
Going into an Uptown or Victory Park tower? We send the certificate of insurance the building asks for, reserve the freight elevator and stick to the loading-dock slot, so the crew is let in on arrival.
Full or partial packing comes with boxes, paper and blankets. Glassware, mirrors and the TV are wrapped for a long day through central Louisiana and East Texas, not a ten-minute ride.
Taking a job in Dallas-Fort Worth? We move employees from New Orleans to Uptown, Victory Park, downtown and the northern suburbs, on dates you can set a first day of work around, and we can send paperwork to the employer if they're paying.
AD Movers vs. National Van Lines
Search for a New Orleans to Dallas quote and most of what comes back is national van lines, brokers and freight-container services. The trouble usually isn't the brand but the model: shared trailers, terminals and wide delivery windows. Here is that model next to ours for the drive to North Texas.
Plenty of national movers do a fine job, but these are the complaints that show up most often. Dallas is a single day's drive up I-49 and I-20, so none of them should be part of your move.
What Goes Wrong on Long Moves
Read enough long-distance moving threads on Reddit and review sites and the same few stories keep coming up. Here they are, each with the part of our setup that keeps it away from a Dallas move.
The furniture was due last week, it's still in a storage yard somewhere, and the company wants another payment before it will say when the truck leaves.
✔Nowhere to get stuck. The load goes on in New Orleans and comes off in Dallas after the run through Shreveport. There is no terminal on the way and no waiting for other shipments, and you have the delivery day in writing.
An estimate that looked reasonable turns into a much larger bill once everything is on the truck, usually after the load is weighed and a new number comes back.
✔No scale involved. The New Orleans → Dallas price is agreed after the walkthrough, before the truck pulls out. Weight doesn't change it, fuel isn't added and nobody asks for more at unloading.
You hired one company online. The truck that arrives belongs to a different one, and nobody on the crew knows what you were promised.
✔You meet the crew once. The AD Movers team that wraps your things in New Orleans is the team that carries them into the Dallas house. No broker sits in the middle.
Shared loads get moved from truck to truck at terminals. That is where boxes go missing or get crushed under another family's dresser, and the claim takes months.
✔Two touches, total. Everything is blanket-wrapped and strapped in New Orleans and isn't handled again until Dallas. Long-distance moves carry general liability and cargo insurance, and a claim is handled by the company that moved you.
The company wants a big non-refundable payment before it will even put a date on the calendar. Consumer guides list that as a classic rogue-mover sign.
✔Modest deposit, balance later. A small deposit reserves your Dallas date. You pay the rest after the move is finished.
Managed towers in Uptown and Victory Park typically won't hand over the freight elevator without a certificate of insurance naming the building, and a crew that arrives without one can be sent away.
✔Paperwork goes in first. Send us the building's requirements and we get the certificate (naming the building, management and owner) to the manager, book the elevator and confirm the dock time well before the truck leaves New Orleans.
"Sometime in the next two to four weeks" is a normal van-line delivery answer. Try scheduling a first day at a new job, school enrollment or the internet hookup around that.
✔A day you can put on the calendar. The Dallas drive takes one day. You get a delivery day up front, so the power, the internet and your time off can all be booked around it.

“Great moving experience: they were quick, handled my stuff with care and very attentive to my instructions on where to put things.”
“Great guys....polite, on time, take great care of furniture and personal belongings. Would not hesitate to use them again!”
“The guys were nice and did a good job. They moved our furniture and went to storage units we had near by and got the rest of our furniture. I highly recommend them.”
Pickup Day in New Orleans
Most Dallas deliveries are wide driveways and garages. The New Orleans pickup is the tricky half: narrow streets, no driveways and doorways sized for another century's furniture. These are the four things we plan around before the truck heads up I-49.
A shotgun in the Bywater or Irish Channel has no hall: every room is a doorway into the next, ending at a front door up a flight of stoop steps. Sofas and box springs come out on an angle, so we measure that last turn first and protect the jambs before the first piece moves. Going into a Frisco two-story at the other end, the same crew already knows which pieces come apart.
French Quarter streets are narrow, one-way and lined with parked cars, and a full-size moving truck simply doesn't fit most blocks. For a Quarter or Marigny pickup we plan a smaller shuttle truck between your door and the Dallas-bound truck, and that shuttle is already in the flat price we give you.
Old Metairie driveways are tight and the oaks hang low, so some houses get a smaller truck and a shuttle instead of the big one in the drive. Northshore pickups mean a trip across the Causeway, so we prefer a weekday morning start there whenever your Dallas date allows it.
Jazz Fest fills Mid-City and Esplanade, French Quarter Fest fills the Quarter, Essence fills the CBD around the Superdome, and parking near your door can vanish for the weekend. We check those dates when you book. A 7am start on a quiet weekday beats loading a Dallas truck a block away from the house in festival traffic.
Before You Land in Dallas
People leave New Orleans for Dallas-Fort Worth mostly for jobs, and Texas has no state income tax. Here is what you're moving into, and the DFW habits that change how we run the delivery.
Uptown is the walkable part of Dallas, close to the Katy Trail and Klyde Warren Park. Bishop Arts in Oak Cliff is independent shops and restaurants, Deep Ellum is live music and murals, and Plano and Frisco are where families go for yards and schools.
Apartment towers in Dallas usually want two things before a move: an insurance certificate naming the building and a booked freight elevator. We handle both ahead of time and plan the unload around the dock hours the building gives us.
The Dallas North Tollway and the President George Bush Turnpike are hard to avoid in North Dallas, and the tolls add up for commuters. If one of them is on the way to your new house, the toll is part of our flat price.
Dallas summer afternoons regularly pass 100 degrees. We aim to arrive early, swap carriers often and keep the truck doors shut between trips, which is easier on candles, vinyl, electronics and the crew.
The Drive, Mile by Mile
It's a little over 500 miles, heading northwest. These are the details of the Dallas run that most quotes never get into.
From Lafayette the truck takes I-49 north through Opelousas, Alexandria and Natchitoches to Shreveport, then I-20 west past Longview into Dallas. It avoids Houston traffic entirely, which makes the arrival time easier to predict.
The North Texas toll roads, including the Dallas North Tollway, the Bush Turnpike and the Sam Rayburn Tollway, have no cash booths. We use them when they save time getting to your door, and you never get a toll bill from us afterwards.
Frisco, Prosper and Celina keep adding subdivisions, and a new street may not show up in map apps yet. Send us the builder's lot address and any gate code before the move, and the driver goes straight to the right house.
About AD Movers
AD Movers started in New Orleans in 2013, and owner Adonay Pineda still runs it. Here is how that differs from the national companies bidding on your Dallas move.
How It Works
Three steps, and the only phone call is the one you choose to make.
The tool above gives a Dallas ballpark in about a minute. If your move is unusual, a piano or a storage unit pickup for instance, add a note and we'll factor it in.
We visit, confirm the flat price and set the load day and delivery day. Mention elevator bookings, packing or a lease deadline and the I-49 and I-20 run gets planned around it.
The crew pads and loads everything, drives it to Dallas, Plano, Frisco or McKinney and unloads on the agreed day, beds assembled before they leave.
Your New Orleans → Dallas Crew
The crew is AD Movers staff, background-checked and answering to the owner, not day labor hired for the trip. They wrap furniture in blankets, cover door frames and floors, and take care with the antiques and the cheap bookshelf alike, from a Mid-City studio to a 4-bedroom in Old Metairie. Deliveries go all over Dallas: Uptown, Bishop Arts, Deep Ellum, Plano, Frisco, Irving, Richardson and McKinney.

Built for the 505-Mile Run
Each truck carries moving pads, hand trucks, furniture dollies and highway tie-downs, because the I-49 and I-20 legs are long and the North Texas sun is hard on an unload. The job never changes hands. As a licensed and insured New Orleans to Dallas moving company, we load one truck for your household and drive it to the new address ourselves.

Routes & Areas We Serve
Pickups anywhere in Greater New Orleans, deliveries from Uptown Dallas out to the far northern suburbs. If you're going somewhere else in Texas or out of state, there's a route for that as well.
Coming the Other Way
The truck runs south too. Families coming home from Dallas are often swapping a two-story with a garage for a New Orleans house with a stoop and street parking, and we plan that delivery before leaving Texas.
Whoever loads you in Plano, Irving or Uptown Dallas is who carries it into the New Orleans house. Your things stay with that crew start to finish.
Narrow doubles, one-way blocks, Carnival closures and CBD freight elevators are all worked out with you before the Dallas load-out starts.
A northbound or southbound move gets the same kind of flat price: home size, distance and access, confirmed before loading. Call 504-237-0855 to have a Dallas pickup priced.
Common Questions
On a Dallas move we commit to four things: arriving when we said, carrying only your household, delivering on the agreed day and charging the flat price you approved, with no reweigh, warehouse delay or end-of-job add-on. Only severe weather or a road closure would change the date, and you'd hear it from us first.
