Your Propane Company Cares about You
Recently, a national survey polled homeowners about they liked most about propane. One of the top answers was: local propane suppliers are very dependable.
That’s no surprise. Your local propane company takes pride in their responsive service and they truly care about your comfort and safety. That’s why you can always expect a fast and courteous response whenever a situation arises where you need help in a hurry. Responsiveness and dependability are among the most important differences between big utility companies and local, friendly propane dealers.
Unlike big utilities, propane dealers are private businesses that do not operate as monopolies; they are not franchised by the state to work exclusively within a service territory awarded to them. That’s why propane customers in Missouri enjoy the freedom to choose from a variety of fuel suppliers, depending on the experience, services and support they need.
