A Simpler First Step

Hogs showed up. Now what?

Finding help shouldn’t mean calling around without knowing who serves your area. Tell THD what’s happening. We’ll review the details and help identify a practical next step.

Before you hire, get your bearings.

Learn what hog damage looks like, when to ask for help, what to expect from an operator, and how to weigh the cost.

A free place to begin

Submitting a request is free. Every request gets reviewed.

Tell us once

Share what you’re seeing, where it’s happening, and how to reach you.

The details matter

We look at your location, property, hog activity, and access information.

A connection when it fits

We look for participating independent operators whose service areas and capabilities appear to fit.

Useful information

If an operator connection isn’t practical, we can point you toward relevant research or other resources when available.

Your choice

If an operator responds, review the work, price, and terms before deciding.

Independent operators perform the fieldwork and set their own terms. A review or possible fit does not guarantee an operator response, quote, service, or result.

Where We Begin

Starting Locally. Listening Statewide.

Wherever you are in Texas, we want to hear what you’re facing. Every inquiry gets reviewed, and relevant research or other resources may help when an operator connection isn’t practical.

Current Dispatch Focus

Our pilot focuses on qualifying private properties outside city limits in Harris and Montgomery counties. See current service areas.

Your Area Matters

Outside those counties? Your experience still matters. Tell us what’s happening so we can better understand where help is needed. Operator availability and expansion aren’t guaranteed.

Ask About My Area
Start Here

Tell Us What’s Happening.

Tell us what you’re seeing and where. You don’t need to know which operator to call—we’ll review the details and help identify the next practical step.

No upfront fee to submit a request. Every request is reviewed.

When a connection makes sense, we look for participating independent operators whose details appear to fit. Operators decide whether to respond; a request does not guarantee contact, acceptance, or field service. The operator sets scope, price, and terms if you choose to proceed.

Inquiries are welcome statewide. Operator dispatch initially focuses on qualifying private properties in unincorporated Harris and Montgomery counties. See Service Areas. Outside that focus, we still review what you share and can point you toward relevant information or resources when available. Not ready for this form? Ask us a question.

After You Reach Out

A request starts a conversation.

We review your details and share qualifying requests with relevant independent operators when a connection makes sense. Operators decide whether to respond.

If an operator responds, you discuss the property, work, timing, and price directly. Review their quote and terms before deciding. If a connection isn’t practical, we can point you toward relevant research or other resources when available.

Text messaging is optional. If you opt in on the request form, you may receive text messages about your request from Creative Solution Designs LLC (d/b/a Texas Hog Dispatch). Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. See our Privacy Policy and Terms.

    Step 03

    We Look for a Fit

    When a connection makes sense, we look for participating independent operators whose areas and capabilities appear to fit. Operators choose whether to respond.

  4. Property stakeholder and independent operator connecting directly by phone
    Step 04

    You Decide

    Talk directly with a responding operator about the work, timing, price, and terms. Choose whether to move forward.

Payment Options

Their quote. Your choice.

For THD-generated work, payments can be processed through THD’s Stripe workflow according to the independent operator’s quote and terms. Eligible customers and transactions may see flexible or pay-over-time options from providers such as Klarna or Affirm.

The operator sets the price and payment schedule, including any deposits or milestones, and explains the terms in the quote or written agreement. The operator also controls cancellations, refunds, and service terms. Payment-option availability and approval depend on the customer, operator, service, transaction, and provider; no option is guaranteed. THD is not the lender.

Operators must maintain current liability insurance. THD reviews proof of coverage and records its expiration before an operator can be approved or receive opportunities. This review is not a certification, endorsement, or guarantee that a policy covers a particular claim.

A match only means the request appears to fit information provided by you and the operator. It is not a certification, endorsement, or guarantee.
