Eagle Pass sits across the Rio Grande from Piedras Negras. Whether you serve border traffic or field crews, apply in about five minutes.
Apply Now →Eagle Pass is the county seat of Maverick County and borders Piedras Negras, Coahuila, which lies to the southwest across the Rio Grande. The 2020 census counted 28,130 residents. A city in that position has businesses that depend on trade, travel and local households, and those that supply crews working in the surrounding region.
Owners of trucking, equipment rental, supply and repair businesses know the pattern: spend first, bill later. A field-service company puts fuel, labor and parts into a job before it can invoice. Its customers usually pay on their own schedule, and the schedule is rarely short.
The same goes for the restaurants, motels and shops that serve those crews. They buy food and pay staff for busy periods that may or may not arrive on time. Work comes in clusters, and so do the bills.
Not every Eagle Pass business serves the field. If yours does not, the parts of this page about border traffic and local households apply to you.
| Cause | What happens |
|---|---|
| Slow-paying customer | Payroll and fuel are covered from the owner's pocket or a card |
| Breakdown | Revenue stops while a repair or replacement is paid for |
| Quiet stretch | Fixed costs continue; sales fall |
| Fast expansion | New vehicle, hire or inventory is bought before sales rise |
Each one can cause a missed payment, and each can be traced to timing rather than to the quality of the work.
A business near an international crossing can be affected by events far outside its control: an inspection delay, a schedule change at a shipper, a supply gap on the other side. When goods or customers are late, your bills still arrive on time.
That is why owners here often keep a cushion and why, when the cushion runs out, a late payment can follow. If this has happened to you, you can still apply; describe how your business runs and what the funding is for.
Funding runs from $25,000 to $5,000,000. The application takes about five minutes, starts with a soft credit pull and funding can arrive in as little as 24 hours. Sole proprietors can apply, including independent haulers and one-truck operators.
The remainder is the gap. If it is above $25,000, you are in the range this page covers.
