Renee Melancon has run our office long enough to know that a household move in Terrebonne Parish rarely fits a form. The family in Thibodaux moving up to a bigger place after the shrimp season paid off looks completely different from the retiree in Schriever consolidating into a smaller home before hurricane season starts, and both need a plan built around them instead of a checklist built around a truck.
A Move Sized to Your House, Not a Category
Whether you’re relocating within Houma or heading out toward Atlanta for a new job, our residential service covers the whole household — furniture, appliances, the shed full of crawfish traps and duck decoys nobody actually wants to leave behind. We treat the garage and the attic as part of the job, not an afterthought billed separately once the truck is already full.
- Full walkthrough with Kim Tran before any number gets written down
- Furniture padding sized for humidity, not just distance
- Appliance disconnect and reconnect handled by the same crew
- Coordination around school schedules and dock or rig shift rotations
- Careful handling of outdoor gear, tools, and seasonal storage items most quotes skip
Renee keeps one point of contact on every residential job from the first call to the last box off the truck — call (888) 278-9005 and you’ll talk to the same person twice, not a rotating call center reading from a script.
We see the same pattern year after year: households expanding as shrimping or oilfield income grows, and households contracting as kids move off toward Houston or Atlanta for a first job. Both get the same careful walkthrough, whether the new address is three miles across Houma or three states away.

- Padding and wrap suited to Terrebonne Parish humidity, not generic foam

- Flexible timing around school calendars and offshore rotations
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.

Tell the office what's moving and when, and you'll have a flat number before you hang up in most cases — even if a storm forecast means we're rebuilding half the week's schedule at the same time.
What Our Clients Say
“Wade's crew moved us from our old rental in Gray to a house out near Schriever and didn't waste a minute. Every piece of furniture got wrapped before it left the truck.”
“Blaine drove our load himself all the way to Atlanta for my wife's new job. Everything showed up two days later without so much as a scratch on the dresser.”
“Good crew for our Thibodaux apartment move, careful with everything and right on time. Only ding is the quote came in a little low once they saw how many boxes we actually had.”
Questions We Get Most
Bayou Moving answers these on nearly every call from Houma, LA.
Do you disconnect the washer and fridge water line?
Yes, basic appliance disconnect and reconnect is part of a standard residential move.
Can you work around a rig rotation schedule?
Renee schedules a lot of Terrebonne Parish moves around offshore rotations — tell her the window and she'll build the date around it.
What if we're only partly packed by moving day?
Tell Kim Tran during the walkthrough and she'll quote a partial-pack option so the crew brings extra boxes without full-service packing.
