C & D Water Hauling

C&D Water Hauling is one of those outfits locals end up keeping in their phone because when things go sideways—well trouble, no water, pool needs topped off—they actually show up. Folks around Penn Laird know the type: you call, you explain the mess, and you find out quick if a company is going to make it complicated. And with C&D, the reviews read like the same pattern over and over: **fast**, **same day… even evening**, **sufficient**, and **no fuss** about jumping in when you’re stuck.

Larry Burner (the owner) comes up by name, and not in a “sales pitch” way—more like the neighbor-you-send-people-to way. The reviewer points out he helped years ago with a pool install and then still picked up the phone 21 years later. That tells you something about how he runs it. And when the well company collapsed the existing well? C&D didn’t hide behind scheduling or “not our problem.” They came to the rescue again, responsive and on time, when the house had **no water**. If you’ve been around water hauling at all, you know that’s the moment customers remember—when it’s urgent and messy and everybody’s stressed.

But what stands out most is the working style. Larry sounds **very knowledgeable about everything to do with water**, and that matters because water hauling isn’t just “bring a tank.” People need guidance: how much, how often, what’s realistic until the drillers finish, what to do in the meantime. You want someone who’s seen enough busted wells and temporary setups to talk straight. And you can hear the “goes above and beyond” piece in how the customer describes him—like he treats emergencies like emergencies, not like an inconvenience.

However, this is still a small, owner-driven operation by the feel of it. So if you’re the kind of person who wants a call center, a big corporate dispatch, and a scripted process… is that what you’re after? Or do you want the guy who just gets it done, shows up when needed, and handles the reality of the situation you’re in?

Around here, C&D’s reputation reads simple: **easy to deal with, fast response, and they come through when you’re in a bind**—and in water hauling, that’s the whole ballgame.
