About Chalk Mountain

At Chalk Mountain Services of Texas, we believe great drivers build great companies. Our story starts with a single truck, a strong work ethic, and a family dedicated to doing things the right way.
In the 1970s, Max Kimbrough began hauling milk from his small dairy farm in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. What started as a one-truck operation grew into a thriving transportation business — built on reliability, respect, and hard work. When the oil and gas industry began booming in the early 2000s, Max, his children Mindy Laudermill and Truitt Kimbrough, and long-time business partner Gerald Curry saw an opportunity to take their expertise to the next level. In 2006, they founded Chalk Mountain Services of Texas, focused on safely and efficiently hauling production and flow-back water for the energy industry.
Today, Chalk Mountain is a leader in oilfield transportation and logistics, operating across the Eagle Ford Shale and the Delaware Basin. Our success comes from the professionalism and dedication of our drivers — the heart of everything we do. We're proud to carry forward the Kimbrough family legacy by creating a place where drivers are respected, supported, and rewarded for their hard work. When you drive for Chalk Mountain, you're not just part of a team — you're part of a tradition built on family, integrity, and excellence.
