About Us

Local Crew. Real Experience. Family-Owned.


Tam’s Water Carts started back in 2022 when we saw a real gap in the market for tough, agile water carts that could handle the unique conditions of North Queensland. With roads to build, dust to control, and fires to fight, there was plenty of work—just not enough gear to match it.

We’re a small family business, owned and run by Wes and Tammy Tierney, with our sons and daughters-in-law pitching in too. Together with a tight-knit team of experienced local operators, we’ve built a reputation for being dependable, efficient, and easy to work with.

We value:

Safety – Our trucks are fully mine-spec with all the right gear.

Reliability – We show up, get it done, and keep things moving.

Honesty – No fluff, no fuss, just solid work and fair pricing.

Perfection in the end product – Because the little details matter.

From 2022 to 2025, we’ve proudly supported projects like:


Dust suppression for major roadworks

  • Water supply for roadhouse carparks and camps

  • Supplying water to Boral’s portable concrete batching plant

  • construction sites

  • land revegetation

  • PDR road upgrade.

We’re locals. We know the land, the climate, and the challenges. That’s why we make it easy to get water where it needs to be—no matter how remote.
