WHY NEW ORLEANS

Pros of Moving from Boston to New Orleans

✓

Lower Cost of Living & Affordable Housing. New Orleans offers a much lower cost of living than Boston, especially when it comes to housing. While the median home price in Boston is over $700,000, the typical home in New Orleans is valued under $250,000, making homeownership far more attainable. Renters also benefit, with one-bedroom apartments averaging about $1,400, compared to $2,800+ in Boston.

✓

Vibrant Music & Cultural Scene. New Orleans is world-famous for its live music, jazz culture, and iconic festivals like Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest, and every night of the week there is somewhere to enjoy live music and dancing. Whether you’re into nightlife, music, or historical landmarks, NOLA’s unique culture and entertainment scene provide something for everyone.

✓

Incredible Food & Culinary Heritage. New Orleans has one of the most diverse and delicious food scenes in the U.S., featuring world-renowned Creole, Cajun, and Southern cuisine. From gumbo and jambalaya to beignets at Café du Monde, the city is a food lover’s paradise.

✓

Mild Winters & Warmer Climate. Unlike Boston’s freezing winters and heavy snowfall, New Orleans enjoys mild, short winters with temperatures rarely dipping below 40°F. This means year-round outdoor activities and no need for heavy winter gear.

✓

Laid-Back Lifestyle & Strong Community Feel. New Orleans has a more relaxed, welcoming atmosphere than Boston, with tight-knit neighborhoods and a strong sense of community. The slower pace of life allows residents to enjoy local traditions, parades, and social gatherings year-round.

✓

Life in “The Big Easy.” Much like Boston, there is always something to do and see in New Orleans, Louisiana, and the same attractions that make it a top tourist destination make it a rewarding place to call home.

QUESTIONS

Boston to New Orleans Questions Answered

Most one- to three-bedroom moves range from $2,500 to $6,800. The amount you’re moving, access at both homes, and your moving date set the final number. Request a free moving estimate to receive a flat rate based on your actual belongings.

Typical transit is 2 to 7 days from pickup. A dedicated truck runs direct and delivers at the faster end of that range, while a shared truck delivers within a guaranteed window that is set before you book.

Yes. Pack everything yourself, add partial packing for kitchens and fragile items, or book full packing with custom crating for artwork and electronics. If your New Orleans home isn’t ready on delivery day, we hold everything in storage and deliver when you’re ready.

Late fall and spring are the easiest windows. Peak hurricane season runs from August through October, and Carnival season brings parade routes that close streets across New Orleans, so plan around both. Skip Boston’s September 1 lease turnover if you can, since it is the busiest moving day of the year in the city, and book at least four to six weeks ahead.

Yes. Louisiana counts the 30 days you have to register your vehicle from the date your Louisiana driver’s license is issued, and the vehicle needs a Louisiana safety inspection sticker within that same window. You’ll also need Louisiana auto insurance to register.

How do I get an estimate?

Choose whichever fits your schedule for a free quote or consultation.

✓Video walkthrough. A 15-minute video call, room by room. Most popular option.
✓Call us. 866-565-1516 speak with our friendly team.
✓Request a quote online. Send details and we’ll follow up.
✓Free in-person estimate. Available for homes with 2+ bedrooms.

Will my furniture be protected?

Yes. At Poseidon Moving, protecting your furniture is one of our highest priorities.

Every piece is carefully prepared before it’s moved. Our crews use heavy duty moving blankets, stretch wrap, floor protection, and proven loading techniques to help prevent scratches, dents, and shifting during transport.

If you have antiques, artwork, glass, marble, or other high-value items, we can recommend additional protection options such as custom crating or White Glove service.

Are there items you can't move?

Yes. For safety reasons, we cannot transport hazardous materials or certain restricted items. These are commonly referred to as “non-allowable items.”

This includes:

•Propane tanks, gasoline, kerosene, and lighter fluid
•Paint, aerosols, household cleaners, and other hazardous chemicals
•Fireworks, ammunition, matches, and charcoal
•Living things, including plants, fish, and pets

We recommend transporting these items yourself, using them before your move, or disposing of them safely according to local regulations.

Not sure about a specific item? Just ask your Move Coordinator before moving day, and we’ll be happy to let you know if it can be transported.

Can you take down TVs and wall-mounted items?

Yes. We can remove and reinstall many wall-mounted items as part of your move.

Our crews can typically dismount and reinstall:

✓Mounted TVs
✓Artwork and mirrors
✓Shelving
✓Window air conditioners

Some installations may require additional hardware, specialized tools, or extra time, so these services may incur an additional charge.

If you know you’ll need help with wall-mounted items, let your Move Coordinator know before moving day so we can arrive fully prepared.

How much will my move cost?

Every move is unique, so the most accurate pricing starts with a personalized estimate.

✓Local Moves – Pricing depends on the size of your move, the time required, travel time, and any additional services such as packing, storage, or specialty handling. Based on your move, we’ll recommend either hourly or flat-rate pricing.
✓Long-Distance Moves – We provide binding estimates based on your inventory, the distance, logistics, and any additional services you request.

Do you provide moving supplies and equipment?

Yes. Every Poseidon Moving truck arrives fully stocked with the supplies and equipment your move may need.

✓Heavy-duty moving pads, stretch wrap, and tape
✓Dollies, hand trucks, straps, and floor protection
✓Basic tools for disassembly and reassembly

If you’re not fully packed by moving day, let us know before your move date and we’ll make sure the crew brings the packing supplies you need – boxes, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, bubble wrap, mirror boxes, and TV boxes.
