Trying to find someone who will deliver water to our property to fill up the troughs and tanks every other month or so. The place I called wont return my calls so seeing if anyone may know someone who knows someone who could help me out.
Property is located inside Terlingua ranch in the Cedar Springs area, would be needing 1700 to 2000 gallons at a time. Its a pain to haul that all in by pick up truck and trying to see if there is an easier way.
Water catchment not an option, it hardly every rains out here.

You need to invent a way to extract water from rocks. You'll be a billionaire.
Sorry, that's all I got.

Have a chili cook-off on your property once a month and ask for water donations.

Happy Birthday. Wish I could help on the water thing, but I've done that for some guys before and it is hard on your truck with even 250 gallons bouncing around on rock roads. Can't imagine 10 trips back and forth.

Water trucks usually have baffles on the inside to limit movement. Try the local fire dept. Many times, for a fee/donation of course, they will deliver water with their tanker truck.

I don't know if he's even in the country anymore, try Randy Roberts in Sanderson, he used to do some guiding around that area and knew who around there that might be able to help. Sorry that's all I have right now haven't been down that way for several years.

You may try a local oil/gas well service company. They have to deliver fresh water to rigs sometimes.
I crow louder, when I'm far from the nest!
