NYC Container is GOING TO LOVEBURN 2025!
NYC Container is going back to Love Burn! We’re excited and we hope you are too! As always our goal is to make it as affordable as possible to transport NYC burner’s stuff and especially ART to the event and back.
Load-In
When: Sunday, February 2, 2025, from 09:00 – 13:00 – DO NOT BE LATE!!
Location: same location as last year (back of the Zeppelin Hall parking lot)
FB Load-In Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/598555076146981
Load-In Timeslots
Load-In Timeslots are based on your arrival date at Love Burn. The earlier you arrive, the later your time-slot and the closer to the doors your bins will be in the container.
Please stick to these timeslots!! If you don’t you’re making life harder for other people, as your bins will be in the way of earlier arrivals. And in turn, your bins will get shoved around, climbed on, etc.
Whatever you do, DON’T BE LATE!! At 13:00 the container doors will get locked and the container gets picked up.
| LoveBurn Arrival Date | Load-In Time | |
| Event | Thursday, 2/13 and later | 09:00 – 09:30 |
| Pre-Event | Wednesday, 2/12 | 09:30 – 10:30 |
| Tuesday, 2/11 | 10:30 – 11:15 | |

Price
- $42 / 27-gallon LOWES (!) yellow top
- $9 / cu ft for all other bins/tents/etc
SALES LINK: Love Burn 2025 Container Sale
PLEASE get the 27 gallon yellow-top bins from LOWES if you’re buying new bins.
Compatible bins at other stores: Costco, Sams, Walmart
Home Depot has similar-but-not-quite-the-same bins that don’t stack well with Lowes (and other compatible) bins. Yes, we do allow Home Depot bins, but we *really* prefer the standard bins. Don’t buy new bins at HD if you can avoid it.
Are you bringing Art?
Art Transport Grants are available for any art project that you may want to bring to the event. Please remember that:
* This is a donation funded program, and there are no guarantees on payouts – don’t depend on this to make your project financially viable.
* You must reserve and pay for the necessary space for your art project. Reimbursements will happen *after* the event, and amounts will vary depending on donations.
* This is only meant for your art, not your personal items.
* Check out our Gallery of previous Art Transport Grants Recipients!
Bikes & Batteries
Bikes: MUST be shipped in bike boxes.
E-bike batteries (and batteries in general) are NOT permitted on the container. We DO offer a separate transport service for your e-bike batteries at $25 / battery round-trip. Batteries will be collected at load-in, and will travel with some of our campers via road.
“Regular” e-bike batteries only! No lead-acid batteries, no massive batteries for your mutant vehicle.
Fill-out this form if you’re interested and send PayPal or Venmo as listed on the form.
At Love Burn
We plan to be on-site by Monday, February 10, well on time for any camp’s early arrival team to pick up their bins from us.
Location: Same as last year, first camp right inside the gate on Arthur Lamb blvd.
On-site transport:
* There will be shuttles to get your bins to your camp
* we will have a vehicle of our own (uhaul van or similar) to help you out if no shuttles are available.
More Info
Pretty much all the same rules apply as for our containers to Burning Man.
We’re working on a general info page that will apply to both burning man & love burn, but in the mean time check our Burning Man 2024 page if you have never used the container before and have questions. You can also ask around on our Facebook page, or email us at: info@nyccontainer.org
