Houma to Houston: The I-10 Run West
Our trucks leave Houma and cross the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge before the road opens up through Lafayette and Lake Charles, then rolls past Beaumont into Houston. It’s the straightest of our six routes, but Basin traffic and the Sabine River crossing still eat time we build into every quote instead of promising a fantasy clock.
Why This Corridor Stays Busy
Most of our Houston clients are oilfield and maritime workers transferring between operators, or crews reassigned to Gulf Coast energy jobs. Blaine spent years in offshore logistics before starting Bayou Moving, so he plans pickup dates around rotation schedules, not the other way around. We’ve also picked up Houma families following adult kids who landed engineering jobs inside the Loop.
Delivery Day Inside The Loop
Houston’s inner-loop apartments usually mean tighter parking and stricter loading-dock windows than anything we deal with back home in Terrebonne Parish, so we confirm building access before the truck leaves Houma.
- Dedicated truck and W-2 crew for the full 340 miles
- Pickup windows built around offshore rotation and shift-change dates
- Furniture pads and load bars on every piece, not shrink wrap alone
- Loading-dock reservations confirmed before departure for inner-loop buildings
- Same crew from your Houma driveway to your Houston door
Ballpark Pricing By Home Size
These bands are a starting point — Kim confirms the real number after she has actually walked through what is moving.
| Home Size | Typical Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Studio / 1BR | $1,800–$2,600 | Runs light and fast on this corridor since it's our most frequent route; smaller loads often share a truck slot. |
| 2-3BR | $3,200–$4,600 | Typical oilfield-transfer household size; price swings mostly on stairs, elevators, and how much is boxed versus loose. |
| 4BR+ | $5,200–$7,500 | Full households usually need a dedicated truck and a second crew member for load time on both ends. |
Our Services
A one-room load in Bayou Cane and a full house headed out to Atlanta both start with the same nine-service lineup and the same crew roster — nothing gets handed off partway through.
Our Range Of Services IncludesLocal Houma Moves
Gray gets the same crew as Bayou Blue -- load it, drive it, set it down, done inside a day regardless of which end of the parish you're on.
Learn More →Long-Distance & Interstate Moves
Six lanes cover most of what leaves the state from here: Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, Jackson, Mobile, Memphis. Whoever wraps it at the yard rides along and carries it in at the other end.
Learn More →Residential Moves
A Schriever starter home and a bigger Bourg house get the exact same care -- nothing gets set down until you say where it goes.
Learn More →Apartment & Multi-Family Moves
Elevators booked, move-in windows confirmed -- our crews have worked enough Thibodaux and Raceland complexes to know the routine before we ever knock.
Learn More →Full-Service Packing
Glassware, mirrors, electronics -- everything gets wrapped against the humidity before it's boxed, whether that's one room in Chauvin or a whole house in Dulac.
Learn More →Short-Term Storage
Waiting out a closing date in Cut Off or riding out hurricane season before Golden Meadow's ready -- either way, the storage stays dry until you need it back.
Learn More →Piano Moving
Raised camp in Montegut, slab house in Gibson, doesn't matter -- moving an upright or a baby grand across the bayou just takes the right straps and a crew that's done it before.
Learn More →Labor-Only Load/Unload Help
Got the truck already for a Larose or Bayou Cane move? We'll send the muscle to load or unload it on your schedule -- you keep the wheel.
Learn More →Senior & Retirement Moves
A Thibodaux or Raceland downsize doesn't get rushed here -- we go room by room, at whatever pace actually works for the household.
Learn More →What To Expect
A Houma move breaks down into four stages, start to finish — here is what each one looks like.
Kim Walks The Job With You
Most of it happens over the phone — stairs, a stilt-house landing, storm-season flexibility, whatever's actually in the house — before she puts a number to it.
Jerome Locks In The Paperwork
Coverage, certificate of insurance if a leasing office needs one, and the final number all get confirmed before the crew is dispatched, not worked out after the fact.
Wade Or Dominic Runs The Crew
Whichever one is on your job, furniture gets wrapped before anything is carried through a doorway, stairwell, or stilt-house ramp.
Setup, Not Just A Drop-Off
Beds get reassembled, boxes land in the room they're labeled for, and the crew takes the packing debris with them on the way out.
Why Houma Keeps Booking Us
Same Crew Chiefs, Year After Year
Wade has run the long-distance side since 2014 and Dominic has led local jobs since 2017 — ask either one about a route or a neighborhood and they'll know it firsthand, not from a training binder.
Stilt Houses And Storm Season Are Normal Here
A piano down a raised staircase, a closing date that slips because of a storm watch, a driveway that floods after a hard rain — none of that throws off the schedule, because it's what most weeks look like in Terrebonne Parish.
One Crew, Start To Finish
Wade's crew loads the truck on Barrow Street and is still the one unloading it whether the drop-off is a short hop to Mobile or the two-day haul up to Atlanta.

What Our Clients Say
“Had my own truck already lined up for a Cut Off move and just needed hands to fill it. Two guys showed up, loaded it better than I expected, and were done in under two hours — running about twenty minutes behind schedule was the only hiccup.”
“Moved us from Bayou Cane to Houston for my husband's new job. Blaine called before pickup and again before delivery so we knew where the truck was the whole way.”
“Our Golden Meadow move went smoother than I expected for a four-bedroom house. Dominic's crew wrapped every piece of furniture and had us unpacked before dark.”
Questions We Get Most
Bayou Moving answers these on nearly every call from Houma, LA.
How far ahead should I book the Houston run?
Three to four weeks out is ideal, especially if your transfer lands in summer when offshore rotations and school-year moves stack up on this corridor. We can sometimes take a Houston job on ten days' notice, but you'll have fewer date choices.
Will my things ride alone, or get combined with another load?
We run Houston often enough that a smaller load can sometimes share truck space with another job heading the same direction that week, which brings the price down. A full house almost always travels on its own dedicated truck since combining isn't worth the handling risk at that volume.
How long does the drive actually take?
Door to door it's typically a single long driving day, sometimes stretching into a second morning if we load late in Houma or hit weather around the Basin bridge. We'll give you a realistic delivery window on your quote call, not a rounded-down guess.
What protection do I have on my belongings in transit?
Every shipment travels under full-value protection as standard, meaning we're responsible for repair or replacement cost if something's damaged on the road, not just a per-pound settlement. We'll walk through the paperwork before pickup so there's no surprise later.
