RioMist Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 In this dry weather and the government water turning down the water pressure so we have no government water at all. I have to have water delivered by truck. At the moment I am paying 700 baht for 8000 liters. I think this is expensive as they probably get the water for next to nothing from some source. So my question is is 700 baht too much to pay? I need 1 delivery a week. If you know of a cheaper source please be so kind as to pass on information. I live near Kwang Road between Chalong and Central Festival. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinginKata Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Sounds about the right price. Here in Patong I pay 1,200 baht for 12,000 liters. Been that price for the last 2 or 3 years. You might be able to negotiate down if you make a long term contract and take delivery off period to times (after mid night). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if you are not too far away he will deliver water to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenl Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I need a number for water truck. Online search has been fruitless and the well is pumping a trickle. Charlie water used to be my guy but I lost the number. Anyone?? So rainwater collection is not working? Charlie water used to get me for 700 baht per 8000 litres. 3 trucks to do 22,000 litre tank. Intstalled a rain water collection system and never needed a truck again. I'll check, I quite often see Charlie water trucks with the phone number on the back, I think they get their water from Soi Naamjai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late reply but yes, the rainwater collects but at that time, the pool overflow storage tank ball valve failed and drained the water out of the main storage tank in under 24 hours.

Edit, it was not a few posts later that I provided the number but the following post. Since it looks like you like to dig up old posts go ahead, this one is easy to find. And Charlee water still exists. Edited April 18, 2022 by stevenl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
