Two trailers, each filled with 1,600 cases bottled water, are already empty due to the current demand for water in preparation for Hurricane Irma. 

The free bottles of water, donated by 7-Eleven, were gone before noon on Saturday, Sept. 2017. At 8 a.m. the trailers were stationed at two 7-Eleven stores — one in Port Orange and another in Oldsmar in the Tampa area. 

A spokesperson for 7-Eleven said the company will "be supporting our customers during recovery and will be in touch about that."
