New Orleans sits about 876 miles east of Lubbock, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to Louisiana that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $4,120 to $6,130 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 15 h 48 min.
On the Lubbock side there are 110 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (38 of them authorized for interstate work), and 227 around New Orleans (125 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in New Orleans.
Lubbock has a population of about 273,071 and New Orleans about 362,154. The two cities have comparable density (1,910 and 2,265 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Louisiana does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
