Natalbany is an unincorporated community in Tangipahoa Parish, named for the nearby Natalbany River, which drains into Lake Maurepas. It sits on US 51 between Hammond and Tickfaw, with about 2,500 people at the 2020 census. Natalbany has no town government, so Tangipahoa Parish rules cover land work here directly. If your Natalbany lot is wooded, land clearing opens the ground for a new house or shop.
From our base in Covington, Natalbany sits about 24 miles west as the crow flies. Natalbany Road, which is LA 1064, meets North Morrison Boulevard, which is US 51, in the community. Farther west, Natalbany Road passes over Interstate 55 with no exit. To the east, it crosses the CN railroad and ends at Morris Road, just north of Hammond Northshore Regional Airport.
In 1894, the Natalbany Lumber Company bought a sawmill in Natalbany, and that mill burned in 1938. Across the parish today, most Tangi soils are in pasture or pine woodland. On a Natalbany homesite, our dozer and track loader clear the building spot, and an excavator lifts out the stumps. Pines you want to keep can stay, and forestry mulching grinds the brush under them into a mulch layer.
In Natalbany, the parish requires a land clearing permit for any parcel of 5 acres or more. Any major subdivision needs the permit, and so does any special use residential commercial development. A single home with a construction permit is excluded from that rule. Before any trees come down, read the Tangipahoa Parish land clearing permit rules and confirm your parcel with the parish.
Census Bureau estimates for 2023 count about 1 in 8 of Natalbany's roughly 1,300 homes as a mobile home. The installer sets and ties down a mobile home, and we build the compacted dirt pad under it. Tangi soils have a dense fragipan, and water can sit perched above it 1.5 to 3 feet down. A slab home or shop gets a house pad of clay we haul in, compacted and graded to shed rain.
Ponchatoula Creek winds around the west side of Independence and Tickfaw, then southeast through Natalbany. Much of its channel has been dredged, and its chief use today is drainage. If rain pools by your house, a French drain or other yard drainage work can move it off the lot. The parish Permit Office issues driveway and culvert permits, and we build the gravel driveway and set the culvert.
