Crew housing units for Lake Charles and CP2 LNG crews

By Justin Richard, Founder · Last updated 2026-10-26 · Lake Charles, Louisiana

Venture Global expects about 7,500 construction jobs at peak at CP2 LNG in Cameron Parish, and most of those workers stay in and around Lake Charles. Contractors who want their own beds can buy new crew units and sleepers from us. We build them in Breckenridge, TX, then deliver, set, and connect them on land you lease or own in Calcasieu or Cameron Parish.

Who needs crew housing here

CP2 LNG and Cameron Parish

Venture Global expects about 7,500 direct construction jobs at peak at CP2 LNG [1]. Cameron Parish has very little housing of its own, and parish officials have pushed back on park-and-ride lots for LNG crews near the plants over traffic and safety, suggesting they sit farther away [2]. In practice, that keeps crews in Lake Charles, Sulphur, and the towns around them, driving south every shift.

Lake Charles, Sulphur, and Hackberry

Lake Charles is the main hotel, RV, and rental base for the parish plants. Sulphur, just west on I-10, sits closer to the Hackberry and Cameron Parish roads. Hackberry is the last stop before the coastal plants. A contractor with a yard in any of the three can house a crew on it instead of competing for rooms.

Rooms vs. owned units

Lake Charles rooms and RV pads are rented by the night or month, and every major build in the parish draws on the same supply. Owned crew units stay on your site for the length of your contract, then move to your next job or get resold. See man camp rentals vs. buying your own units.

Looking for a room for yourself? We do not rent rooms or beds. We sell new units to employers, contractors, and camp owners who house their own crews.

Permits, delivery, and site

Units enter Louisiana as 16 ft wide oversize loads on LA DOTD permits. Our team handles permits, delivery, and setup from start to finish. On the coast, three things shape the site: the HUD wind zone for the parish (see hurricane wind zones), flood-zone elevation rules, and wastewater approval through the parish health unit [3]. Tell us the parish and the address, and we will confirm what the units must be built to.

What one contract covers in Louisiana

Manufacturing	Units are built in Breckenridge, TX to the plan and spec sheet on your contract: room count, baths, kitchen layout, and code type (non-coded crew unit or HUD-code).
Delivery and transport	Each unit travels from Breckenridge, TX to your site as an oversize load, delivered in the sequence set in your proposal. Our team handles permits, delivery, and setup from start to finish.
Setup	Units are set on your prepared pad, leveled, blocked, and anchored. PTAC heat-and-air units ship loose and are installed on site.
Utility hookups	We connect each unit to the water, wastewater, and power service at the pad, so the building is ready to occupy once inspections clear.
Project management	One contract and one point of contact for the schedule, delivery sequencing, and coordination with your site contractor, utilities, and inspectors.

You provide the land. Our team handles permits, delivery, and setup from start to finish, and coordinates pads, roads, and utility service to each pad. Your proposal lists the full scope for your site.

Common questions

Can I buy crew housing units for a Lake Charles yard?

Yes. We sell new crew units and sleepers built in Breckenridge, TX, and deliver, set, and connect them on your site in Calcasieu or Cameron Parish. We sell new units only, with no rentals or leasing.

How many workers will build CP2 LNG?

Venture Global expects about 7,500 direct construction jobs at peak at CP2 LNG in Cameron Parish.

Do you rent rooms in Lake Charles?

No. We do not rent rooms or beds. We sell units to employers and contractors who house their own crews. Workers looking for a room should ask their employer or a local lodging provider.

Do units for coastal Louisiana need a higher wind rating?

Often. Coastal parishes sit in higher HUD wind zones, and flood-zone rules can set the pad elevation. Tell us the parish and the address, and the units are built to what the site requires.

How fast can units reach a site near Lake Charles?

We can build as many as 50 units in about 30 days. Our factory recently built and delivered 70 units for a client in less than two months. Every job is different, and our team helps at every step. See the delivery and setup timeline.
