Propane can be a great fuel choice for home and business owners who live in rural areas here in Central Texas. The energy source is cost-effective, eco-friendly, safe and versatile. It offers independence from a shared power grid and public utility lines, which is a huge advantage to anyone living in a remote area. Additionally, it essentially has no expiration date and doesn’t even degrade over time. Therefore, you can keep as much of the fuel as you would like at your remote location.
While the fuel itself has some major benefits for people in rural locations, getting it delivered to these rural locations can come along with certain challenges and headaches.
It is always important to have a strategy and plan when it comes to managing your propane supply, but this is even more important for people in rural areas. This is because it may take a supplier longer to arrange a delivery and get to you.
There are a few ways to tackle this with Hill Gas.
You can, of course, be a will-call customer, but this gives you full responsibility when it comes to tracking your propane tank’s fuel levels.
Alternatively, you can enroll in Hill Gas’s Keep Full automatic propane delivery service. This option allows us to track your propane use for you and schedule your next delivery before your supply gets too low.
If you want to take things a step further, you can take advantage of our wireless propane tank monitoring services. A wireless tank monitor is a device that gets connected to your propane tank. It then sends Hill Gas real-time information about your fuel levels, allowing us to schedule your next delivery accordingly.
Rural and remote areas can be challenging to navigate and get out to. That is why you need a reliable propane partner like Hill Gas. We are dedicated to showing up with your fuel when we say we will, no matter where a customer lives.
Living in a remote area can mean that your propane provider is far away and needs to allocate a large amount of time to get to you, requiring that you place your fuel order many weeks in advance. If this is the case for you, consider ordering enough propane so that you have a solid supply on hand at all times. Remember that you have this option since the fuel doesn’t expire, as we mentioned earlier.
Whether you live in a rural neighborhood or a more populated one here in Central Texas, Hill Gas can get you the propane you need when you need it. We have been serving families in Brown, Comanche and Erath Counties since 1969. You don’t want to run out of propane no matter where you live, and with Hill Gas’s Keep Full option and our wireless propane tank monitoring service, you don’t have to worry about this.
In addition to fuel deliveries, we can also handle tank installations, connections and maintenance.
