Dawson County towns
Do you serve Los Ybanez, Ackerly and O'Donnell in Dawson County?
Yes, our Dawson County route days cover Lamesa, Los Ybanez and the Dawson County parts of Ackerly and O'Donnell. Lamesa uses ZIP 79331 and is the main stop, about 75 miles from Odessa. Smaller Dawson County communities ride the same route day when you book 2 to 3 days ahead.
Lamesa's Chicken Fried Steak Festival takes over the last weekend of April, and the Lamesa Rodeo runs each summer. Lamesa is the smallest micropolitan area in the U.S. by population, so even a mid-size event can draw a big share of town. Festival units show up the day before and come back out the next business day.

Work in the county
What farm and oil work in Dawson County needs porta potties?
Cotton farming is the main business in Dawson County, so gins and harvest crews make up much of the jobsite need. Oilfield sites come next, with roots in the 1943 Spraberry discovery well. Dawson County field crews fall under OSHA 1928.110, which calls for 1 toilet and 1 hand-wash station per 20 workers.
- Cotton gins running long shifts at harvest
- Field crews chopping or harvesting cotton
- Oilfield sites on the Spraberry Trend
- Hand-wash stations set within a quarter-mile walk of field crews
Hypothetical example
a 46-person cotton chopping crew near Lamesa
A farm near Lamesa runs a 46-person hoe crew for full days in June. OSHA 1928.110 calls for 1 toilet and 1 hand-wash station per 20 workers: 46 ÷ 20 = 2.3, rounded up to 3 toilets and 3 hand-wash stations. Each set must sit within a quarter-mile walk, so if the crew splits across 2 fields, the units split too.
Rural access
How do you deliver to cotton fields and gins in Dawson County?
Dawson County deliveries go to the field edge or gin yard, never into planted rows. Send a GPS pin for the Dawson County field, the farm road number and a turnaround spot for the truck. At harvest, gin yards fill with modules and trailers, so mark a drop zone at least 1 truck length clear of the lanes.
- Tell us before service day when the crew moves to a new field.
- Keep units away from gin scale and module lanes.
- Lamesa averages about 17.6 inches of rain a year, more than Odessa, so field roads can turn to mud.
- Check that the unit stays within a quarter-mile walk of the crew.
