Hi, I am David Hall
I served nearly 14 years as a United States Marine before moving into the container industry. The Corps taught me that details matter, that commitments are kept, and that you do not leave someone hanging when they are counting on you.
Delivery Geography in Mississippi
Mississippi runs from the Mississippi Sound north through the Pine Belt and the Jackson Prairie to the Delta and the hills along the Tennessee line, across 82 counties.
Jackson sits near the center of the state, where I-55 crosses I-20, with Ridgeland, Madison, Brandon and Pearl around it. Gulfport, Biloxi and Pascagoula line the Mississippi Sound along I-10 and US 90. Hattiesburg anchors the Pine Belt, where I-59, US 49 and US 98 meet. West of Jackson, Vicksburg and Natchez sit on the Mississippi River, and north of Vicksburg the Delta's farm fields run along US 61 before the land rises into the hills around Oxford.
What to Plan Around in Mississippi
Weathered Yazoo clay under most of Jackson and the Jackson Prairie swells and shrinks with moisture, the Delta's heavy clay drains very slowly, and coastal lots can hold water after a storm.
- ✓ Level, firm ground under all four corners
- ✓ Drainage that carries water away from the container
- ✓ Unpaved access to farm, ranch and acreage sites
- ✓ HOA covenants, deed restrictions and local permit questions
- ✓ Access at job sites, plants and other working sites
- ✓ Driveway width and overhead clearance on the truck's route
