No obligation · straight to our New Orleans office
Memphis is the longest route on our board — almost 390 miles straight up I-55 through Jackson, Mississippi, and into Tennessee, close to six hours behind the wheel. A drive that long usually means an overnight stop is realistic, and we plan Memphis moves that way from the start rather than rushing a same-day delivery that puts a tired driver back on the road at 9pm.
How a six-hour route actually gets planned
Adele Broussard builds Memphis estimates around a two-part timeline: load-in and departure on day one, with delivery either late that evening or the following morning, depending on what time the truck gets loaded and how far up I-55 it gets before a rest stop makes sense. That’s not us padding the schedule — it’s an honest six-hour drive, and Corbin Arceneaux, who drives every mile of it himself, isn’t going to cut corners on rest to force an unrealistic same-day promise.
What doesn’t change on a route this long is who’s driving. Corbin loads the truck in New Orleans and is still the one backing it up to your new address in Memphis, whether that’s the same evening or the next morning. There’s no second crew picking up a load partway through Mississippi, and no separate carrier taking over for the Tennessee leg.
The inventory system runs the same regardless of drive length. Every box and piece of furniture is barcode-labeled and photographed by Vivian Toussaint’s packing crew before it’s loaded. At delivery — however many hours later — each item gets scanned again and matched against that same pickup record. Your GPS tracking link stays live on your phone the entire time the truck is moving, including any overnight stop, so you’re never wondering where things stand.
What’s included on a Memphis move
- Corbin drives the full ~390-mile route personally, start to finish
- Realistic two-part timeline: load day one, delivery that night or the next morning
- Barcode-scanned inventory at pickup, matched again at delivery
- Photo-documented condition log before loading
- Live GPS tracking for the entire trip, including any overnight stop
- One truck, one driver, no third-party carrier for any leg of the route
It’s our longest haul, and we plan it like one — realistic timing instead of an overnight promise we’d have to break, and the same barcode-and-photo tracking on mile 390 as on mile 1.
Why Greater New Orleans books this crew
What sets High Tech Movers apart
Every item on the truck is logged before it leaves your driveway, and you can watch the pin move on a map until the last box is carried through your new front door.
Every Item Gets A Barcode
Before the truck backs out of your driveway, Desmond’s crew has scanned every box and piece of furniture into a digital inventory log. The same barcode gets scanned again at delivery, so there’s a timestamped record of what left and what arrived.
Watch The Truck, Not The Clock
You get a live GPS link the morning of your move, the same way freight gets tracked in transit. Instead of a wide arrival window and a guess, you can watch the truck cross the Causeway or come off I-10 and know almost to the minute when the crew pulls up.
Licensed Through The State, Not Just A Sticker On The Truck
We hold an active Louisiana household-goods carrier permit through the Public Service Commission, plus insurance on every load. A property manager in Metairie or an HOA in Mandeville asking for proof gets a certificate the same day.
Theo Routes Around The Traffic Before You See A Truck
Causeway backups, I-10 work near the Industrial Canal, streetcar tracks that pinch a whole block downtown — Theo builds the day’s routing around all of it before a crew ever leaves the yard, so your window holds.
You Get Adele, Not A Script
Call the office and Adele, Remy, or someone off the crew picks up — not a call center reading from a screen somewhere out of state. Whoever answers already has your scan sheet pulled up.
Long-distance
Long-distance moves out of New Orleans
Corbin Arceneaux drives every long-distance run himself, from the last box loaded in New Orleans to the door at the other end, with your GPS tracker live on your phone the whole drive.
Photographed, scanned, then wrapped
What happens to your things between your old door and your new one
Every Piece Gets Photographed First
Vivian’s team photographs dressers, cushions, and anything with an existing scratch or dent right where it stands in the room, before a single blanket goes on. That photo gets matched against the piece again at delivery.
The House Gets Protected Too
Corner guards and floor runners go down at both ends before the first box moves, so neither your old hallway nor your new one ends up with a scuffed wall or a dented door frame.
Taken Apart, Logged, Put Back Together
Bed frames, dining tables, cribs — whatever needs to come apart for the ride gets disassembled, its hardware bagged and tagged to the same barcode as the piece itself, then reassembled at the new address.
Fragile Items Get Their Own Box, Not A Gap Between Cushions
TVs, mirrors, and artwork get a dedicated carton with real corner padding and a photo taken before it’s sealed, so there’s a record of its condition before it ever leaves the room.
Nothing Gets Muscled Up A Staircase
Anything heavy rides on a dolly with a real tie-down strap, which matters more than usual in a city full of raised camelback homes and narrow, steep staircases.
The Crew That Starts Your Move Finishes It
Desmond runs the same crew from the first box to the last, with no relief shift showing up after lunch to pick up where somebody else left off.

Very fast movers that made sure we were well taken care of.
Their trucks are top-notch! Made my moving day much easier.
How it works
Three steps. One crew the whole way.
01
Tell Adele The Basics
Two ZIP codes and a rough room count is usually enough for Adele to send back a written estimate the same day — no in-person walkthrough required just to get a number.
02
Your Crew And Scan Sheet Get Booked
Lock in a date and a specific crew goes on the calendar under your name, along with the digital inventory sheet that tracks every barcode on move day. Need a certificate of insurance for your building first? It goes out before move day.
03
Scanned At Pickup, Tracked The Whole Way, Scanned At Delivery
Desmond’s crew loads and scans every item, drives it themselves with your GPS link live the entire time, and scans each piece again as it comes off the truck at the other end.
Ready to put your move on the schedule?
From the first barcode scan at pickup to the GPS ping when the truck turns onto your new street, your move stays logged and trackable the whole way — not tracked on a clipboard that gets left behind in the cab. Send us your details and expect a written number back the same day.
