What to Expect When Switching Propane Providers

Thinking about changing propane companies? Whether it’s pricing, service, or reliability, many homeowners and businesses may decide it’s time to make a switch. If your current propane provider isn’t meeting your expectations, the good news is that switching is easier than you might think. At Wrightington’s Gas, we’ve helped countless South Shore Massachusetts customers transition smoothly and we handle the heavy lifting, including disconnecting and replacing your previous tank.

Here’s what to expect when you decide to make the move:

Step 1: Initial Conversation
It starts with a conversation. Like other trusted propane companies in Massachusetts, our propane specialists will review your current setup, talk through your energy usage, and delivery schedule for your needs. We’ll also answer questions about propane pricing, contracts, and propane delivery options so you have a clear picture before making the switch.

Step 2: Scheduling Your Tank Replacement
Once you’ve decided to change providers, we’ll schedule a convenient time to replace your existing tank. We coordinate the process to minimize downtime, so whether your propane supports residential heating, hot water, cooking, or commercial operations, you’re not left without service. Unlike some other propane suppliers, we make communication a priority so you’re never left wondering when your service will be completed.

Step 3: Safe Removal of the Previous Tank
On the scheduled day, our trained technicians safely disconnect your current propane tank and lines. We make sure all propane is properly purged, and we move the old tank from its current location to a convenient location for your previous provider to pick up. This step is done with strict attention to safety standards.

Step 4: Installation of Your New Tank
Next, we position and install your new Wrightington’s propane tank. The installation meets all safety codes and is designed for easy access during propane tank refills. We anchor the tank securely, connect your propane lines, and prepare your system for service.

Step 5: Leak Testing and Safety Checks
Before turning your propane back on, we run a complete safety inspection. This includes leak tests, pressure checks, and a thorough review of your connections. Only once everything passes inspection do we restart service. These steps are part of the professional propane service standards that keep your system running safely and efficiently. 

Step 6: Restarting Service and Customer Walkthrough
Finally, we relight appliances as needed and confirm that everything is working as it should. Our technicians also walk you through how to monitor your new tank, schedule a propane refill, and get the most of your new service.
