My husband is in the over the road trailer business and needs tarps sewn for some open top trailers. I'm sure I can tackle the project as I'm an experienced seamstress but can't find the fabric anywhere. Does anyone know where I can find waterproof tarp fabric that's about 264" wide? LOL

You will have to call commercial suppliers. That size is probably a special order. You could also try to contact many of the fabric mills and see if you can order straight from them. The commercial stuff is rarely available online so you will have to make a few phone calls.

Have you tried FarmTek? They have huge tarps for farms and livestock applications. They are in the USA.

there is a company in Fargo ND that makes ragtops. I can find out the name of the company this weekend as not only am I going there, but we will be able to talk with one of their employees Very Happy (son in law of friend works there)

Ive seen the stuff he works with as the sil made 'walls' for my friend to hang in his shop so he can have a 'cooler' for working on processing deer.
