How much does a commercial move in New Orleans cost?

Your price comes down to the size of your space, the distance, the equipment involved, and whether we work during the day or after hours. A CBD tower move can also carry building elevator and certificate-of-insurance requirements, and a French Quarter or Warehouse District address may need permits and a smaller truck for the street, all of which shape the schedule and the cost. The honest way to get a real number is a free walkthrough, so tell us about your space and timeline and we’ll send a clear, itemized quote, usually within one business day.

How long will my New Orleans office move take?

A small office can move in a single night, while a multi-floor headquarters or warehouse may be phased across several days or weekends. Your building’s access windows, elevator reservations, and the street it sits on all shape the timeline as much as your square footage does. Your dedicated project manager builds the plan around your operations and your office relocation so you’re back up and running with as little lost time as possible.

Can you move us after hours or on weekends?

Yes, and for most New Orleans moves it’s the smart play. We’re available 24/7 and routinely run moves on nights, weekends, and holidays so your business keeps humming during the day. CBD high-rises, hotels, and healthcare facilities almost always move after hours, and your project manager builds the schedule around your busiest hours so the work happens in your quietest window.

How do you handle moves around Mardi Gras and festival season?

Carnival closes parade routes and side streets across Uptown, the CBD, and Mid-City for weeks, and Jazz Fest, French Quarter Fest, and Essence add their own closures, so we treat the calendar as part of the plan. We know the routes and the timing, schedule your move into the open windows, and stage trucks and crews where they can actually reach your dock. The result is a move that works around the parade instead of getting stuck behind it.

Can you handle historic buildings and high-rises with tight access and COI requirements?

This is exactly our lane. We move offices through CBD towers, French Quarter buildings, and converted Warehouse District mills every week, so freight elevators that are slow, doors that are narrow, and streets that are one-way don’t surprise us. We issue certificates of insurance naming the right parties, reserve elevators and docks ahead of your date, pull any street permits the address requires, and coordinate directly with property management so nothing stops your crew at the curb.

Commercial Movers Who Plan New Orleans Moves Around the Parade Route

CBD office towers and Elmwood warehouses both demand a mover who plans for narrow streets, festival traffic, and Gulf humidity. Flood Brothers relocates New Orleans businesses with directly-employed crews that handle the details so you reopen on schedule.

We Know This Market

In New Orleans, Carnival Closes the Streets for Weeks. We Plan Around the Parade Route.

Here’s something every New Orleans business owner understands and every out-of-town mover forgets: for weeks around Carnival, the parade routes shut down whole stretches of the CBD, the Garden District, and Uptown, and a moving truck doesn’t stand a chance. We know those routes and the rolling road closures cold, and we plan your move date and your trucks around them, the same way we plan around the summer heat, the humidity that’s hard on electronics, and the June-to-November hurricane season.

Much of the city’s character is also its challenge. The French Quarter and older CBD blocks were laid out long before loading docks, so the rig that breezes through a suburban office park can’t make the turn. We bring right-sized trucks, shuttle gear, and the permits the city actually requires. In the CBD towers, freight elevators reserve days out and management won’t pass a crew without a properly named COI, which we file well ahead, never the morning of.

New Orleans moves on energy, maritime trade, and healthcare. We relocate the oil, gas, and engineering firms in the CBD, the logistics and distribution operations tied to the Port of New Orleans and the Elmwood and Jefferson corridors, and the equipment on the Tulane and Ochsner medical campuses, where after-hours, badged moves keep care running. The crew that packs your space is the same crew that rebuilds it, under one project manager who answers their own phone.

What We Move

Commercial Moving Services in New Orleans

Full-service relocation for offices, facilities, and logistics operations across the New Orleans metro.

Office & Corporate Relocation

Whether you're a single suite in a Poydras tower or a multi-floor headquarters, our own crews pack you, disconnect and reconnect your IT, and rebuild your furniture exactly as it was. We work the move into nights and weekends so your people sit down to a working office the next business day, not a pile of boxes.
Data Center & IT Relocation

Your servers, network gear, and AV move with anti-static handling, custom crating, and a documented chain-of-custody that protects your uptime. We sequence the cutover with your IT team and carriers so connectivity comes back online on schedule, not on a guess.
Industrial & Warehouse Relocation

Racking, machinery, inventory, and freight around Elmwood, Harahan, and the Port demand a crew that respects a dock schedule. We stage and sequence the work so your supply chain keeps flowing and your shelves are restocked the way your team actually picks them.
FF&E & Installation

We receive, assemble, and place furniture, fixtures, and equipment for offices, hotels, and medical and retail spaces across the metro. The same team that delivers it installs it, so you're not chasing a separate vendor when a leg is missing or a piece lands in the wrong suite.
Storage & Warehousing

When your build-out runs long or a lease gap leaves you between addresses, our 500,000-plus square feet of secure, monitored space holds your furniture, equipment, and inventory. Everything stays accounted for and protected until your New Orleans space is genuinely ready for it.
Logistics & White-Glove Delivery

From a single conference-room install to a multi-site rollout, we handle scheduled deliveries and white-glove care for the items you can't afford to scratch. Each delivery is coordinated, tracked, and finished cleanly so nothing shows up unannounced or half-done.

Industries We Serve

New Orleans Industries We Serve

We tailor the plan, crew size, and schedule to the way your industry actually operates in the New Orleans metro.

Tourism & Hospitality

From the CBD convention hotels to French Quarter boutiques, every relocated room and back-of-house line is a room you can't sell. We phase FF&E, kitchen, and operations work around your occupancy, convention, and festival calendar so guests never feel the move happening around them.

Healthcare

Hospitals and clinics across the Mid-City medical corridor and Tulane, LSU campuses can't pause patient care to move. We relocate sensitive equipment after-hours with documented handling and phase departments one at a time so your schedule and your patients stay on track.

Energy & Maritime

Offshore, oilfield-service, and maritime firms tied to the Gulf and the river run on rig and vessel schedules, not office hours. We move technical offices, sample storage, and field equipment around your operations so the work downriver never waits on a relocation.

Port & Logistics

Freight-forwarding, distribution, and warehouse operations near the Port of New Orleans and the Elmwood corridor run on dock clocks. We sequence the move around your loading schedule so containers keep landing and inventory keeps shipping.

Higher Education & Research

Tulane, Loyola, UNO, and Xavier move labs, libraries, and departments on a hard academic calendar with summer windows that don't move. We crate sensitive lab equipment and phase the work between terms so faculty and students return to rooms that are ready.

Finance, Legal & Professional

Law firms, banks, and professional offices in the CBD need a move that's discreet, secure, and invisible to clients. We handle confidential files under chain-of-custody and schedule around tower access so your attorneys are billing again Monday, not hunting for a banker's box.

Where We Work

Areas We Serve Across Metro New Orleans

Across the New Orleans metro, the same crews and project manager carry your move from first walkthrough to final placement. In the core we move firms through the CBD and Warehouse District towers and the historic blocks of the French Quarter and the Garden District, bringing shuttle trucks and permits wherever the streets are too tight for a full trailer.

On the logistics side we work Elmwood, Harahan, and the Jefferson and St. Bernard corridors feeding the Port of New Orleans and the river terminals, where dock and parade-season timing rules the schedule. Our reach runs across Jefferson, Orleans, and St. Tammany parishes, out to Metairie, Kenner, and the Northshore at Mandeville and Covington, so a company with more than one location keeps a single partner and one point of contact for all of them.
