Has anyone ever hauled water in to fill up a swimming pool? How much did it cost? The fire department use to do it for donations now they don’t.. I’m on well water and don’t really want to put a strain on my pump (if it would)

I had no issues filling our pool with mine.
I just finished refilling my pool after draining and cleaning it. It took about 2 1/2 days, but we turned the faucet off when we were home using water in the evening/morning so pressure wouldn't be low for our in-home use.
Our pool is about 38,000 gallons.

I used to own a tanker for this we charged 500 for 10,000 gallons . Not cheap to haul , cost of the truck driver tags etc . and most pools at 30-40 thousand on avg . Now with that said many times the owners would be filling the pool with their hose as well and would buy 1 load . In some cases yes we would fill the entire pool . I always thought it a waste of their money but we filled a niche that made money . Up until we sunk the truck on a old septic tank that caved in and that was the last straw for me . Sop around but 10,000 is a true tanker and your not going to get much larger than that .
