Customers are using Propane now more than ever. Propane is used for cooking, whole-home heat, hot water and dryers. If a customer chooses not to be on automatic delivery, it is important for customers to call when their tank reads no lower than 30%. This will allow for ample time to deliver the product you need. PLEASE – do not let your tank run out of Propane! The State of Maine requires us to complete a Leak Test on your system and a charge of $140.00 will be assessed.
A minimum delivery of 100 gallons, or filling of the tank if it is smaller than 100 gallon capacity, is requested. If you request a delivery less than that, a $20.00 delivery charge will be assessed. If you are needing a same day delivery on a day we are normally scheduled for your area and cannot wait until the next scheduled date, a $40.00 same day delivery charge will be assessed. Since we delivery to certain areas on certain days, if requesting a delivery be made on an Off Route day and we need to pull our trucks off their normal route for the day there will be a minimum of $125.00 off route fee assessed.
Propane prices are based on annual usage if you lease a tank from us or by gallon drops if you own and maintain your Propane tank. Volume discounts are considered. Tanks are sized according to how many BTU’s your appliances use. We cannot deliver to another company’s Propane Tank, nor can they to ours.
