Frequently Asked Questions
What types of shipping containers do you sell in New Orleans?
US Conex sells new and used conex containers, shipping containers, storage containers, cargo containers, and sea containers across the New Orleans, LA area. All units are built from heavy-duty CORTEN anti-corrosive steel to withstand extreme Gulf Coast humidity and hurricane-force winds. Available in three grades:
New One-Trip — made one journey from the factory to the US, essentially brand new
Used Cargo Worthy (CW) — certified for ocean export, structurally sound
Used Wind & Watertight (WWT) — fully weatherproof, most affordable option
Available in 20ft standard, 40ft standard, and 40ft High Cube sizes. See current pricing in the table above.
What is the difference between a WWT and a CW container?
WWT (Wind & Watertight) containers are weatherproof and structurally sound — guaranteed no holes or leaks — but are not certified for ocean transport. They are the most affordable and popular option for on-site storage, residential use, and commercial projects across Louisiana.
CW (Cargo Worthy) containers are certified for international ocean freight. They meet stricter structural standards and are the right choice if you need to export goods through the Port of New Orleans, require certified containers for shipping, or want the highest-quality used unit for a modification project.
Both grades are inspected before delivery and backed by our 25-year structural and leak warranty.
Can I rent a portable storage container in New Orleans?
Yes! US Conex offers portable container rentals across the New Orleans metro area. We offer flexible rental terms from 1 to 24 months — no credit check and no security deposit required. We also offer a rent-to-own option where monthly payments go toward purchasing the unit outright. This is ideal for maritime logistics sites, construction contractors, or residents needing secure space during hurricane season.
To get started, fill out our rental application on the Rent page and we'll review it within two business days.
Which cities do you deliver storage containers to from New Orleans?
If you are looking for shipping containers for sale in Louisiana, we deliver from our New Orleans depots across the entire region and the surrounding 200-mile radius, including:
-
Metro NOLA — Metairie, Kenner, Slidell, and Chalmette
-
Louisiana Hubs — Baton Rouge, Houma, and Lafayette
-
Gulf Coast — Gulfport (MS) and Biloxi (MS)
We leverage major interstates like I-10, I-12, and I-55 to ensure fast, affordable tilt-bed delivery directly to your property.
Do I need a permit for a shipping container in New Orleans, LA?
Permit requirements in New Orleans depend on your intended use and duration:
-
Temporary on-site storage: Generally no permit required for active, permitted construction sites.
-
Permanent placement or structural modifications: Contact the City of New Orleans Department of Safety & Permits at (504) 658-7200 or use the city's One Stop App.
-
Zoning: Be sure to check local Orleans Parish zoning laws and historic district regulations (like the Vieux Carré Commission), as they heavily restrict container placement.
We recommend confirming local requirements before ordering a container for permanent installation.
Can I inspect the conex box before I pay?
Depot visits are not allowed for safety and liability reasons, but our pay-after-delivery option provides complete peace of mind. The container is delivered to your New Orleans-area property, you inspect it on-site, and only then do you complete payment. If the unit does not match the agreed grade or condition, you are not obligated to accept it.
Every container is also covered by our 25-year structural and leak warranty from the date of delivery.
Can your containers handle Louisiana weather?
Absolutely. All of our containers are built from CORTEN anti-corrosive steel, which is specifically engineered to resist rust. WWT and CW units are guaranteed watertight — no holes or leaks — so your contents stay completely dry and protected from severe thunderstorms, flooding rains, extreme humidity, and Gulf Coast hurricanes.
How do I get a price for delivery to my address?
Enter your ZIP code in the quote tool on this page. Our system will identify your nearest NOLA-area depot, calculate the delivery cost, and provide a total delivered price. A container specialist will then contact you within 3 business days to confirm availability and walk you through the order process. There is no upfront payment required to place an order.
