    Your standard vacuum truck company down here in south texas. Not sure which contracts they have these days as its been awhile since I talked to one there driver. Like most eagle ford service companies, they are a revolving door.

    They advertise all the time down here, but so did Stevens Tanker (where I just left). Spoke with drivers daily when I was working, but hadn't seen a PTT driver for awhile. Sorry I can't give you any hard details on if they are busy or not. Advertisement says they have overtime, but most companies say that. Getting it right now is another story.

    They had a mechanic cause an explosion at their yard back in January using a welder I believe. Other companies you may want to look into include, EnAqua, NGL, Nabors, Pinnergy, Viking (in Stockdale), Supreme Vac, Basic, Siboney and Chalk Mountain. There is a brand new company out there that has some sharp looking equipment but for the life of me I can't remember the name. Their tractors and trailers have a design of what looks like a dragon to me on them. Heard they were based out of California and showed up in March in full force. I know many of them park and sleep at the cabin off 97 in between Floresville and Stockdale. Best of luck to ya if you sign on.

    I see'em everyday at the disposal. What do you wanna know?

    I always ask the same question, "how do they treat you there?" It doesn't seem like there happy, but they do have work.

    Chalk Mountain isn't hiring. They just finished laying off 140 drivers. Nabors is cutting wages and hours.

    Not a good time to come to the patch.

    Just put PTT in the corpus CL searchbox. I think you'll find that they advertise for their Karnes City yard constantly. that may not mean anything, but then again, it might.

    They are a horrible company. Do not care about anyone but themselves. I know the 2 mechanics that got killed on their property after I left there. Wanted to pin it on me even though I was not even an employee there. Too bad OSHA had my back and not theirs.
