Where a Flowood delivery comes from
Flowood is priced off two supplier depots: New Orleans, LA (about 194 road miles, I-10 / I-59 east into Hancock and Pearl River counties) and Memphis, TN (about 214 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 Flowood
Flowood's Zoning Ordinance has no container-specific rule. An accessory building 'shall be erected only to the rear of the main structure' (§202.01-01) and no closer than 5 ft to a lot boundary or another building (§202.01-02). The rule that actually bites in Flowood is the floodplain one: §206.01 ties every special-flood-hazard parcel to the city's floodplain ordinance, and the Floodplain Development Permit application says any development in a designated floodplain — which FEMA defines to include 'storage of equipment or materials' — needs a floodplain development permit before the work starts. Much of the low ground along North Flowood Drive and the Lakeland Drive corridor took water in February 2020. Community Development / Building (2101 Airport Rd, 601-939-4279) issues permits; the Floodplain Administrator is at 601-939-4243.

Will the truck make it in? Flowood lots
Most Flowood container demand is commercial — back-of-house storage behind the 1.8 million square feet of retail on Lakeland Drive, contractor laydown off Airport Road and Flowood Drive — and those lots have the run and the surface a tilt-bed wants. The check is the floodplain map: a parcel near North Flowood Drive or the river bottom needs the floodplain development permit before a container is set, and the Rankin-Hinds Pearl River Flood and Drainage Control District is headquartered in Flowood for a reason. Residential Flowood (Castlewoods side, Grants Ferry) is standard suburban: rear yard, 5 ft off the lines.
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.
