Airport Overview

Poplarville-Pearl River County Airport (FAA: M13)（PCU）is a local public-use airport serving Poplarville and Pearl River County in southern Mississippi, United States. Its position at approximately 30.51667°N, 89.70556°W places it within reach of the Gulf Coast and the wider New Orleans–southern Mississippi logistics area. For international freight planning, our service team treats this facility as a general-aviation access point rather than a scheduled cargo gateway. The airport can be useful for charter, project, urgent, or local aviation movements when aircraft acceptance, handling arrangements, customs status, and ground transfer are confirmed in advance. Routine international cargo will normally require coordination through a suitable nearby commercial gateway.

Key Highlights

Airport classification: Local general-aviation facility, not a conventional scheduled international cargo hub.
International handling: Do not assume on-airport customs, bonded storage, cargo screening, or freight-forwarder warehouse capability; confirm each requirement before booking.
Best-fit movements: Charter cargo, aircraft-on-ground support, urgent parts, project cargo, and other pre-arranged local aviation movements.
Gateway strategy: Standard export and import shipments will usually be planned through a nearby commercial airport, followed by bonded or domestic trucking where applicable.
Operational dependency: Aircraft type, operating hours, ramp access, loading equipment, security arrangements, and consignee-side delivery must be checked case by case.

Cargo Facilities & Services

Our service team does not represent Poplarville-Pearl River County Airport (FAA: M13) as having a dedicated international cargo terminal. The following service boundaries should be used when designing an air-freight plan:

Ramp and aircraft access: Cargo acceptance depends on prior airport and operator approval, aircraft compatibility, parking availability, and safe loading arrangements.
Warehouse handling: Dedicated cargo terminals, automated sortation, pallet build-up areas, and regular freight acceptance should not be presumed. Arrange a handling agent or use a commercial gateway.
Temperature-controlled cargo: No cold-chain room or validated pharmaceutical handling should be assumed. Our team can route temperature-sensitive freight through a gateway with confirmed cool-chain facilities.
Dangerous goods: DG acceptance, trained personnel, segregation, and documentation must be confirmed with the actual aircraft operator; airport proximity alone does not establish DG capability.
Customs and bonded services: Import clearance, bonded storage, examination, and in-bond trucking require confirmation with U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the selected gateway or broker.

Routes & Transit Times

Standard international freight: Our team normally evaluates commercial gateway routings serving the Gulf Coast and southern Mississippi region, then compares airport-to-door trucking against a direct charter solution.
Charter or ad hoc uplift: A dedicated aircraft may be considered for oversized, urgent, or high-value cargo, subject to aircraft positioning, crew availability, permits, payload, operating hours, and ramp approval.
Carrier selection: No scheduled cargo airline, fixed frequency, or guaranteed connection should be inferred for Poplarville-Pearl River County Airport (FAA: M13). The operating carrier and handler must be confirmed for each shipment.
Transit-time controls: Actual door-to-door timing is affected by gateway cut-off, export screening, customs documentation, trucking capacity, weather, aircraft availability, and the need for transfer between the commercial gateway and Poplarville.

Our service team will quote a routing only after confirming whether the shipment requires a commercial gateway, a charter aircraft, or a local airside transfer. Any transit estimate remains subject to operational confirmation.

Hinterland & Key Cargo

Primary catchment: Poplarville, Pearl River County, and nearby southern Mississippi communities; practical delivery reach depends on the final consignee address and truck availability.
Regional connectivity: The location may support local industrial, construction, agricultural, emergency-response, and aviation-related supply movements, but shipment planning should be based on the confirmed shipper and consignee rather than assumed airport cargo demand.
Suitable cargo profiles: Time-critical replacement parts, machinery components, maintenance materials, project cargo, aircraft parts, and charter-compatible general cargo may be considered.
Special cargo caution: Pharmaceuticals, perishables, live animals, lithium batteries, and other regulated commodities require a specifically equipped gateway or operator and should not be routed on assumptions about local airport facilities.

Operations & Compliance

Booking and cut-off: The applicable cut-off is set by the selected handler, aircraft operator, screening provider, and gateway. Obtain written acceptance before delivering freight to the airport.
Export documentation: Prepare a commercial invoice, packing list, air waybill or charter documentation, shipper and consignee details, country of origin, and export-control information as applicable. U.S. export filing requirements must be reviewed for the commodity and transaction.
Dangerous goods and batteries: Use the correct IATA Dangerous Goods Declaration where required, UN specification packaging, marks, labels, and battery data. Acceptance remains subject to the operator’s current approval and handling capability.
Import and delivery: For international arrivals, customs entry, examination, release, bonded movement, and final delivery must be coordinated with the broker and the selected U.S. gateway. Do not dispatch a truck until cargo release and airside pickup instructions are confirmed.

Shipping Tips

Send our service team the commodity description, dimensions, gross weight, package count, stackability, cargo value, and required delivery date before requesting an airport-specific solution.
For oversized or urgent cargo, provide loading drawings and aircraft access requirements early; confirm forklift, crane, dock, ramp, and security arrangements with the operator rather than assuming they are available.
Use robust export packaging and clear package markings. For temperature-sensitive or fragile freight, specify the required temperature range, logger arrangement, and maximum exposure time before booking.
Keep a commercial-gateway alternative open. If local handling, customs, screening, or aircraft acceptance cannot be confirmed, our team can compare a nearby scheduled-cargo routing with truck delivery to the Poplarville area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Poplarville-Pearl River County Airport (FAA: M13) accept routine international export cargo?

It should not be assumed. Routine international freight normally requires a commercial gateway with confirmed cargo handling, screening, export processing, and carrier acceptance. Our team will verify whether a charter or specially arranged movement is practical.

Is there a regular cargo airline serving Poplarville-Pearl River County Airport (FAA: M13)?

No regular cargo frequency or airline should be presumed from the airport code. Carrier, aircraft, schedule, and handling arrangements must be confirmed for the specific movement.

Can dangerous goods or lithium batteries be shipped through Poplarville-Pearl River County Airport (FAA: M13)?

Only after the actual operator and handling chain confirm acceptance. The shipper must provide accurate classification, packing, marks, labels, and declarations in accordance with applicable air-transport requirements.

Can temperature-controlled pharmaceuticals be delivered there?

Do not assume that validated cold storage or active temperature-control handling is available. Our team will normally assess a qualified commercial gateway and arrange controlled trucking if the commodity requires it.

What information is needed for a quotation?

Provide origin, destination, commodity, dimensions, gross weight, package count, value, ready date, delivery deadline, special handling requirements, and customs status. For charter cargo, include aircraft access, loading, and security requirements.
