I need to water my trees to keep them from dying during this endless drought. I really don't want to water them off of my well. Does anyone know from where (or whom) I can have a large tank of water brought in for this purpose? They are beautiful old post oaks and pecan trees--I'd really hate to lose them.

Thanks in advance.

Hills of Texas Bulk hauls water. But they have to pump out what ever they bring to you into either a holding tank,pool or pond.. Their truck holds 2200 gals and costs 95.00 per load.. They are out of Spicewood area and very reliable but are working their tails off right now cause of the drought..They usually need a few days notice.
Hope that helps

"HMMM" maybe you will get lucky late this weekend go to this web-site http://www.stormpulse.com/ and make sure you check the forecast model it has the path of the storm on one of them coming to Austin. There is a 100% chance this will make a Tropical storm. Stormpulse should post something late this afternoon they are sending a plane down at this time to check for circulation.

Ditto this. Looks like we finally get a little blow. Long overdue.

Hacksaw, are you back in the Gulf now?
