Shipping containers for sale in Seminary: what you can buy
Shipping containers for sale in Seminary are the same boxes we deliver across the Pine Belt — a 20ft or a 40ft, standard height or high cube, used or one-trip. Most people around here just call it a conex box. Seminary sits on Highway 49 between Hattiesburg and Collins, and the buyers are mostly on acreage off Highway 590 and the county roads: a feed room on a cattle place, an equipment box behind the shop, a lockable spot at the deer camp, or a storage building behind the house that stays.
Used wind and watertight is the plain-storage grade: no holes, doors that seal, dents and surface rust included. Behind a barn or at the back of a few acres it is the right buy — see the 20ft used WWT or the 40ft high cube used. One-trip is near-new and worth it when the box sits in sight of the road or will become a workshop; see the 20ft one-trip. One-trip vs used explains what each grade actually promises.
If the box is for a few months on a site you do not control, a local rental yard is honestly the better answer. Buying makes sense when you will still want the container next year. The farm feed room and hunting camp box packages pair a container with vents, a lock and shelving brackets at one delivered price; the kits ship separately and you bolt them on yourself.
How a delivered container is priced to Seminary
Seminary boxes come off the depots in Mobile and New Orleans, both well over a hundred road miles away, so the haul is a real share of what you pay. It is priced on road miles from whichever depot holds the box you pick, which is why we show one delivered number for your ZIP instead of a box price now and a truck price later. Put 39479 on the containers page and the price updates from the daily supplier feed; the Seminary page shows the same delivered prices with the depot distances.
Not included: a gravel pad or corner blocks, a permit if your lot needs one, and a failed drop. Your card is authorized, not charged, until we confirm the order and the delivery window with you, and delivery is typically within a week or two after that.
Before you buy a container in Seminary
Check the creek first. Seminary sits on the Okatoma, and the June 2026 flash flood put water over Highway 49 and into Main Street. A container on a lot that took water then will take water next time, so ask the county about your parcel's flood status and set the box on the high side, on gravel or blocks rather than bare dirt. Hurricane season storage covers siting a box in Gulf weather.
Measure the run. A tilt-bed needs about 110 feet of straight, firm, level ground for a 20ft and about 130 feet for a 40ft, plus 15 feet of clear sky on the way in and 22 feet where the box is set down. Pine limbs over a long gravel drive are the usual problem out here, and a pasture can stay soft for days after a heavy rain; a truck that sinks cannot set the box, and a failed drop is billable. See delivery access.
Make one call. Rules for a container kept on a residential lot differ town to town, and Seminary's are not published online. Inside the town limits, ask Seminary Town Hall how a permanent shipping container is treated; outside them, call the Covington County Board of Supervisors about your parcel. The Seminary page has both numbers, and storage container permits covers what to ask. Then plan a lock box and vents from the accessories page. Shopping nearby?
