What a local move runs
Louisiana crews commonly charge $135 to $145 an hour for a standard two- to three-person team and a truck. A studio or one-bedroom apartment usually totals $300 to $700, across two to four hours. A two- or three-bedroom home runs $700 to $1,500 or more, across four to seven hours. Statewide, full totals span roughly $590 to $4,767 depending on home size and add-ons.
What can push the price up
Most companies start the hourly clock when the truck leaves their dispatch point, so a crew coming from across the river adds travel time to your bill, worth asking where they dispatch from. Heavy items like a piano or a safe, and extra flights of stairs, commonly carry their own surcharge. Get a binding, not-to-exceed estimate in writing rather than a verbal guess, and give an accurate inventory upfront so the truck arrives with enough room.
A sudden downpour can also soften cheap cardboard boxes, so pack anything fragile or paper-based in plastic totes as backup.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Jefferson Parish rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 23% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
