Then in July the association got an offer of 1.94 on a prebuy from Eastern. Since I had not signed the original contract they honored the price, but were really vague about how the credit would be applied and refused to mail me a check for the difference. If Mr Clement and Eastern need my $102 that bad u feel sorry for them. BUT IT GETS BETTER..,actually worse. Dead River approaches the association and offers 1.79 a gallon. This is a warning to read the prebuy contract(who does really)with Eastern. In a rude way I was told you're locked in...nothing we can do. Plus "we don't know how Dead River is doing it. Really. Either Dead River is a much smarter more efficient company, or Eastern essentially said too bad dummy. Great way to build a customer base. BUT WAIT I said that I wasn't feeling very warm and fuzzy with Eastern so I asked what happens if there is a balance at the end of the season. Now bare in mind I had already told the girl I would no longer be a customer next year. She said we will apply it to next year, but if I insisted they charge a .50 per gallon fee. So something I paid for gets docked for what? Greed I guess. So stay away from Eastern, cash...not the customer...is king.

This is a buyer beware. We have two large propane tanks. The only item we run off those propane…read moretanks as our generator. I was billed on January 16 for $758 because they filled both tanks then I get a bill today for $320 I know they haven't been back to refill so when I called it's because I didn't meet the quota of 190 gallons in the previous year so they pick a random number and charge you that, when I called she said it's in your contract which by the way I got in 2014. She sent the contract to me nowhere in there does it say specifically how many gallons you need to get per size of your tank per year to avoid this number that they pick out of the blue because that's also not written down in the contract. So beware they can pick numbers whatever numbers they want because they don't have a chart that says if your tank is this much, you must fill this much to avoid the rental charge. It's a really shitty company to deal with they just give you nothing but the OK sorry ma'am sorry ma'am, and they try to say that it's in their contract and their contract is so obtuse. It makes no sense! if you are considering getting a propane company make sure you ask about their rental fee if you don't get enough gallons. they don't know what they're talking about and they can't give you a concrete number don't use Eastern propane you'll be sorry.

I called my brother-in-law who's an HVAC tech and he said the gage that read 80% was stuck and both tanks were actually empty. called to ask for an emergency fill and they said no fills are done on Sundays and to call on Monday. Called this morning and they said because i just bought the house i need to sign up wait 72+ hours for account approval then i can maybe get on the schedule. So instead, I called Waltz & Sons down the street from me, and they had your tanks swapped out in less than 2 hours from phone call to install. So please come get your tanks off my lawn!

They supposedly had an emergency. (See below about how fast they returned my call when I cancelled their service.) I contacted Waltz in a panic and, once they ascertained that we owned our tanks, they were able to get to us the same day and within a few hours and, after ensuring that everything was as it should be with our tanks, filled the tanks. I want to add that - as opposed to the former company, who did not respond to my emergency call inquiring as to where they were and ONLY called me back when I left a message saying they were no longer needed (and they called back seven minutes after *that* message) - each and every time I called Waltz & Sons the calls were answered promptly and courteously and my questions answered. Although I didn't appreciate the former company's "let them eat cake" and "we'll get back to you when it suits us" attitude, I consider that now that we are customers of Waltz & Sons, everything DEFINITELY ended up all for the best! I should add that the people who provided and installed our generator said that they have had a number of dealings with Waltz & Sons and recommended them highly. In addition, months before, I had compared prices for about six propane companies with Waltz coming in as the second least expensive and the company that never showed being least expensive, so paying a TINY BIT more to actually deal with a competent and efficient company that shows up has turned out to be well worth it.

I am mostly a seasonal resident but when I have spent a week or two when it's been cold and I know I am going through more propane then they expect based on my customer profile and billing patterns, I call and let them know and where the gauge is at so they can put me on the schedule for delivery if I need it. They have always been responsive to that, even at the busiest times of the season. They have always been pleasant and answered my questions. I needed service on a Renai heater last year and they did a good job with scheduling and servicing for me. I heard recently that they sold their propane service to another company that wanted to expand into Maine. So far, I have not noticed any difference in the service that I have been getting after that sale which has been some time ago. The same people are answering the phones and delivering the propane and the trucks still bear the company name.
