Where a Clinton delivery comes from
Clinton is priced off two supplier depots: New Orleans, LA (about 198 road miles, I-10 / I-59 east into Hancock and Pearl River counties) and Memphis, TN (about 220 miles). The order goes against whichever has your grade in stock; the delivered price is the same either way. Published lead time is 3–7 business days from the day we confirm the order with you.
Placement and permits in Clinton
Clinton's Zoning Ordinance §406.08 allows a 'portable storage container' in the front or side yard of a residential district for up to 30 days, 10 ft off the front line and 5 ft off the side, with the building official able to extend to 90 days for a valid building permit or extenuating circumstances such as tornado, fire or flood. A container meant to stay is an accessory building under §401.06: prohibited in the front and side yard of any district, allowed in the rear yard at least 5 ft from the rear and side lines, and the working copy of the ordinance caps accessory buildings tightly — call before you order rather than read the number as settled. Community Development at the Municipal Annex (961 Highway 80 East, 601-924-2256) issues all construction permits and handles zoning.

Will the truck make it in? Clinton lots
Olde Towne Clinton is laid out on the original 1829 survey with 1929 brick streets around Mississippi College, and the East Clinton Historic District is on the National Register — narrow approaches, short lots, and a rear-yard-only rule mean a 40ft is rarely workable there and a 20ft needs the side-yard gate measured. The newer subdivisions off Clinton Parkway and the lots north toward Highway 22 are standard suburban drops. Clinton drains to Bakers Creek and the Big Black, not the Pearl, so the 2020 and 2022 river floods are not part of the picture here.
The non-negotiables are the same everywhere: a straight run of about 60 ft for a 20ft and 100 ft for a 40ft, 14 ft of clear overhead the whole way, and level, firm ground where the box lands. A truck that cannot complete the drop is a billable trip.
