Propane Prices

[sweettractors]

Well, The Suburban delivery man let me with a bill for $4.40 per gallon last week when he topped of my 2 tanks. I called today and told the customer service lady the price seemed way out of reason as I only paid $1.89 back during the summer fill up program. They are suppose to adjust it down to $1.79 and re-bill me. Something screwy going on somewhere? Ken Sweet

Wow, all those prices seem pretty high. I don't have propane anymore but parents still do. They just filled up Friday for 1.09 and was like 94 cents at the start of winter.

Cheap enough that they haven't hardly ran the heatpump this year except for those days it pushes 50 degrees

These prices are in line with what is should be.

That's crazy, I wonder if anybody actually paid $4.40 and didn't bother to call.

We're on "will call" so I don't get a surprise, I always know the price before they fill the tank. Another reason I like to control the fills, I swear they were waiting for the price to jump before filling me and not giving me a cheap summer fill.

Have not had a delivery for two years and tank is at 80%

For 40 years we always left the propane on at the cabin and no issues... water heater on pilot and furnace thermostat at 40F

Three years ago the propane vendor damaged the tank and had to repair on their dime... first time not having heat in the cabin over winter... all went fine.

Two years ago a bear damage the regulator so I had to repair and decided to leave it off if cabin unoccupied...

We were averaging $900 in propane annually and $300 in electricity.

2015 no measurable propane usage and basically only the $7.50 monthly meter charge for electricity.

I would almost be willing to bet good money that people on gvmt assistance will get billed at the higher rate and it will get paid for with our tax dollar. Ken Sweet

Had LP delivered yesterday at $1.02 / gallon (leased tank, cash payment). That's 17 cents less per gal than they were offering last August for winter pre-pay contracts.
