Given that Hurricane Katrina did a large amount of damage to the housing and infrastructure of New Orleans, NOPB has handled more and more shipments of building materials. Because of our 6 Class 1 connections, shippers, and transloads in the local area, we have seen shipments of roofing materials, cement board and wallboard enter this market both domestically and from abroad.

NOPB also serves a US Gypsum Company wallboard and cement board plant. Shipments from this facility have continued steadily and will continue to grow, as NOPB is able to provide competitive pricing and an ample supply of high-quality equipment.  

The logistical advantages New Orleans offers from a manufacturing and distribution standpoint are a dream come true.  If you would like to be included in the ever-increasing group of companies moving product into our area, please contact our transload/warehouse providers for the utmost in professional service and dedication to a quality product.
