Movie & Production Sets
Bulk Water Delivery for Movie Sets & Film Production in Chicago
From big-budget features to local commercial shoots, Gasaway Maintenance Company provides the specialized water logistics required for professional film production. Based in Romeoville, IL, we offer quick and efficient delivery for sets across Chicago and surrounding Illinois filming locations.
Specialized Film & Television Water Services
We understand the fast-paced nature of a live set. Our team coordinates directly with location managers and SFX coordinators to provide:
Rain Effects & Wet-Downs
Maintain consistent wet pavement looks or feed large-scale rain manifolds. Our high-capacity tankers provide the sustained pressure needed for realistic weather effects without the noise of portable pumps.
Basecamp Support
We provide clean, non-potable municipal water for restroom and talent trailers, ensuring systems stay operational.
Stunt & SFX Safety Tanks
Need to fill a temporary tank for an underwater sequence or a safety landing? We provide rapid-fill services for tanks of any size, from 500 to 50,000+ gallons.
Dust Control for Locations
Keep dirt lots and rural locations camera-ready. Our trucks provide even distribution for dust suppression on access roads and background sets.
The Gasaway Maintenance Company Advantage: Built for Production
In the film industry, time is money. We offer specific advantages that keep your shoot on schedule.
-
650-Foot Hose Reach: We can park our trucks well away from the hot set or soundstage, keeping our equipment out of your background shots while still delivering water exactly where it’s needed.
-
Precision Fleet Sizes: From 6,000-gallon semi-tankers for massive wet-downs to maneuverable small trucks for tight city alleys or residential location shoots.
-
Emergency Dispatch: Production schedules change instantly. We offer flexible scheduling, including night shoots and weekend deliveries, to match your call sheet.
-
Clean Municipal Water: We only deliver filtered city water, protecting your expensive SFX equipment, rain heads, and talent from the minerals and sediment found in untreated water.

FAQs
Can you provide water for wet-downs in downtown Chicago?
Yes. We are experienced in navigating tight city streets and working within the permit requirements of the Chicago Film Office to provide rapid wet-down services for urban locations.
Do your trucks have high-pressure pumps?
Our fleet is equipped with professional-grade pumping systems capable of feeding rain towers, manifolds, and high-pressure SFX rigs.
How much notice do you need for a set delivery?
While we prefer 24–48 hours’ notice, we understand the nature of day-of production needs and strive to offer same-day emergency dispatch whenever possible.
