New Orleans Mover Reviews
Donald and Chris are top tier!! Professional, courteous, helpful and funny!! They took care of with my furniture - also helping with disassembly and reassembly. I would hire these two gentleman again!!!
Ivan, Mike and Mike were fantastic! Went above and beyond to make sure all items were moved and fit into truck. Ivan even followed up afterwards to make sure everything was OK. Recommend highly!
We’re very happy with the moving job. They were very polite and cordial and helped us move whatever we needed. They worked very hard and respected all of our property and goods/boxes. We will definitely use them again.
Loading crew arrived on time. They handled all of my items with care and quickly filled the truck like a well packed suitcase. Unloading crew was also on time. They quickly unloaded and placed everything right where we wanted. They also were very careful and courteous. I am very satisfied and plan to use these crews again. Highly recommended.
Showed up on time. Called first. Efficient and professional. Hire these guys. They are terrific.

Major Neighborhoods in New Orleans
One of the most iconic cities in America is New Orleans (aka “The Big Easy”). It's hard to say what it's most famous for, though. You'll get arguments for Cajun food, literary inspiration, bayous, the country's largest Mardi Gras festival, and live music, including Satchmo Fest, which honors native Louis “Satchmo” Armstrong. And genuine sports fans will say the Saints at Ceasars Superdome are the city's flagship no matter how the season goes. But all this means is there's guaranteed to be something you'll adore about living in NOLA. You can read up on the most popular neighborhoods to find the perfect fit for you, and then check out our list of local moving companies. The pros and their know-how will make navigating the area a breeze.
French Quarter
Long revered as the city's crown jewel, the French Quarter is one of the most well-known neighborhoods in the country. Undoubtedly, that makes this area exceptionally busy with tourists and locals alike, but it's hard to beat living so close to the iconic facades and wrought iron balconies on Bourbon Street. The nightlife scene is unlike anywhere else — where else will you find 200-year-old bars like The Napoleon House or ones that rotate like The Carousel Bar & Longue? And if you're a fan of Cajun cuisine, you're right next door to Antoine’s and Bennachin. Keep in mind, that the streets in the French Quarter are old and narrow, so if you're planning on making this your new home, rely on local movers who know the area well.
Garden District
The Garden District's choice of houses ranged from charming little cottages to grand, historic mansions. You can see the whole range of homes riding a trolley car on the 5-mile stretch of St. Charles Avenue (which is also the street where the Mardi Gras parade is hosted, by the way!). Those who are amateur historians or like a good ghost story will enjoy the impressive tombs at Lafayette Cemetary. You'll also want to spend some time on Magazine Street, where many of the local stores and eateries like Stein’s Deli reside. If you plan on joining the Garden District community, be sure to check out our list of local movers. Their familiarity with the area will take the stress out of your relocation.
Bywater
Bywater is nestled along the banks of the Mississippi River — hence the name. But more than waterfront views, it's a fantastic spot if you're a foodie. Elizabeth's is a local favorite for brunch, Jamaican Jerk House serves up out-of-this-world oxtail, and if you're up for a 10-course tasting menu with delicious cocktails, Saint-Germain is the perfect choice. If you're not in a restaurant-going mood, don't fret! Crescent Park is a beautiful green space with picnicking spots right along the river. And wherever you are, there's a good chance of some local art nearby, either hanging on the walls of restaurants or murals. Convinced this is your new home? Then take some of the stress off by hiring local movers and leaving the logistics to the pros.
Uptown
Uptown is a huge section of the city that's often referred to as "Uptown/Carrollton". One of the biggest amenities is the 340-acre Audubon Park and by extension the the Audubon Zoo, with 36 different animal species. You can catch a movie at the 100-year-old Prytania Theater for a unique viewing experience. And whether a local or visitor, eating at Jacques-Imo's is a must, since you're not likely to find Creole cuisine this good anywhere else. The neighborhood is also home to Tulane University and sees a lot of student and student-athlete activity, which means the busiest times fluctuate. But this won't end up as a big problem for you if you hire local movers who know how to navigate even when things get hectic.

They advised me as when I would expect they to arrive. They made sure the furniture was protected and very nice. They worked fast and was respectful of my property and goods. I would recommend this service to anyone with moving needs.
The guys arrived a bit late but took time to consider the space and the content of the move to ensure the best packing strategy. They worked from 10:47-1:17 and were friendly, affable, professional, and easy to work with. They claim over 1000 hours of experience with Hire-A-Helper and it showed.Thank you, Ivan & AJ for your service today (10/30/24). PW-M
The team was incredibly professional and efficient, handling all my belongings with the utmost care throughout the move. They arrived on time, communicated clearly, and were very friendly throughout the process. Thank you will definitely have them to help me with my next move.
They were on time and unloaded everything in a careful and timely fashion. Put all the boxes where I needed them. They were very polite and I was so glad I ed them.
James and Crystal did a great job, arrived on time. James is a master at fitting stuff together in the truck to maximize space and get everything in. What they got done in less than 2 hours would have taken us all day; and probably all of our stuff wouldn’t have fit in the truck. Money well spent.
The best movers I have ever worked with and I moved 25+ times. They were on time, flexible, respodible, and they know what they are doing. They packed so amazing and protected all our stuff that we had extra space in our container. I would not only use them again I would fly them to whoever I'm moving to to help me pack and unpack! You WILL NOT go wrong with them!!!
I would absolutely hire them again and highly recommend them to someone looking for reliable movers. They showed up on time, ready to work, and handled all of our belongings with care! Some movers need a lot of direction, but they were thoughtful and strategic. I barely had to lift a finger and our uhaul was well packed within 2 hours - and we had a lot of stuff!
The crew arrived on time and ready to complete the job. They promptly completed the job and at all times were polite and very respectful of our property. I definitely recommend this company.
