Corporate Mobile Housing (CMH) began with a contract to reach Fort Apache- New Orleans, LA two nights after Hurricane Katrina struck the southern Louisiana coast with flooding in the city, a high state of military security and dangerous areas. Against all odds, CMH was able to transport housing to the top engineers responsible for dewatering New Orleans and surrounding towns. Corporate Mobile Housing provided all living items to the engineering team, including food, water, blankets, generators, fuel, propane, and other essential items.
In addition to CMH’s housing operations, the team hauled potable water on two semi-trailer trucks, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for 12 months. CMH also installed and operated over 100 temporary water and sewer systems, and 30 permanent sewer systems.
With the Hurricane Katrina disaster recovery support achievements, CMH was awarded a multi-million-dollar contract to provide housing in eleven separate locations for 400 workers as well as another full service “personnel camp” for 500 workers. Corporate Mobile Housing’s slogan “We Make It Happen” started during this project while performing these high-performance contracts. Our client and lead contractor over Hurricane Katrina clean-up for Louisiana, The Shaw Group, deemed us “The We Make It Happen Team.”
