O'Brien Propane's service cannot be beat. They are absolutely outstanding. We just moved into a new house and let the propane slip - ran out on a Friday evening right as we were lighting our stove to cook dinner. We left O'Brien and a handful of other propane servicers voicemails that night in the hopes that we could get a refill ASAP. Unfortunately they were all closed through the weekend. Cleveland from O'Briens gave us a call back first thing the next morning (a day that they're closed). Not only did he schedule a truck for us first thing Monday, but he came out that afternoon to give us a 10 Gallon fill to get us through the weekend. He did a leak test, re-lit both of our water heaters and made sure our stove and fireplace were properly functioning. Not to mention he didn't charge us a service fee. These guys are outstanding - I'll be a long time customer for certain. And Cleveland is funny as all hell too. Can't recommend them strongly enough. read more

Recently moved to Austin, found ourselves in a pickle. We didn't know we got to fill our gas tank. Cold front coming in. We hadn't signed up with a new propane company yet, decided that the company that's going to be able to get us out of this pickle fastest is the one we're going to continue working with. I called O'Brien, a guy called Brian answered. He was very nice, it was Wednesday, he said he was going to try to pull it off by Saturday even though it's an extremely busy time and they are backed up. He said he was even gonna try to pull it up earlier. He was going to confirm and get back to me. Which we really appreciated. I called back yesterday to tell them that even if they can't do earlier, we want to confirm Saturday. I called Carl answers. I asked Carl just to confirm they're coming Saturday. Carl said OK. I called the next day because I never got a confirmation. Carl says that he told me if he doesn't call back it's confirmed. Carl never said that. Carl was also pretty abrasive on the phone and he was in a hurry to get off the phone. It almost felt Carl was saying hey this is all I got for you you're gonna have to do what I say if you want gas. I didn't like it. I felt like he thought I had to deal with an abrasive demeanor because I had no other choice. Nope.... I ended up calling Bubba's propane.. they were professional and they're coming the same day. The owner of the company said that his policy is that no home goes without heat and water and all that. We're going to continue working with Bubba forever. you tell me if that decision was good or not. Brian gets 3 stars Carl gets zero read more

Let me tell you about Cleveland. No, not the coveted vacation destination in northern Ohio - Cleveland the man. More specifically, a man of the cloth. ... and the cloth I'm talking about is none other than the guild of liquid propane (and of course liquid propane accessories). Cleveland runs O'Brien Propane. I've known Cleveland for about 3 years now. And he's saved my ass about 3 times. Most recently was last week. We had a plumber running a new line from the tank to the house and broke the POL valve and asked me to let the propane man know. Cleveland's schedule was slammed for the next week and couldn't make it out. I put him on speaker with the plumber to figure out what was going on and he smelled (figuratively) something funny. He told the plumber to stop what he was doing. Cleveland dropped everything and got here in 5 minutes. Come to find out, the plumber set up the system to send high-pressure propane (175 psi) into the house when it required about 0.5 psi. From what I understand that could've dumped the 250 gal tank into our house in minutes. The conversation got spicy. Cleveland's tech came in the next morning (on his day off) and spent 4 hours overhauling the system. The plumber owned his mistake. And showed up the next day to shadow the tech to learn how to do it right. Another disaster avoided. And all thanks to Cleveland and his crew. The last time he bailed me out was during Icepocolypse when they were working around the clock and late late into the night to get people in need propane to stay warm. No one from any other company has taken better care of me as a client. He's funny as all hell. Always has a giant smile on his face and you can tell his family (and his employees families) mean the world to him. There's a lot I admire about this man. If you live in Southwest Austin or Dripping Springs and are on propane, I promise no one will take care of you better. read more

I was down to 25% and called O'Brien Propane as a new client last Tuesday. Larry said they would be out to fill the tank before the week was over. Yesterday afternoon(Wednesday) 8 days later I called and Larry said they have been too busy. We are in the same town, Dripping Springs. Easy and close up Trautwein Road but they never came. Called Bubba's Got Gas and they said they'll be here this morning...they showed at 9:30. O'Brien may just be too busy. read more

I will never switch to another provider after working with the people at O'Brien Propane. They are the most responsive and friendly people I've ever dealt with for any service. They've gone out of their way to take care of us anytime we need a refill, especially when there has been cold-weather arriving unexpectedly. You can find no better company to work with. read more

Cleveland, Garrett and the gang at O'Brien Propane are fantastic. My business has been working with them for the last 5 years and would never consider using anyone else. The team is extremely knowledgeable, always in time, have dropped everything to help us when we've needed it and always have the best rates. If you're looking for anything propane related, look no further. read more

We have been in our house for 3 years and have been completely happy with another propane service. Something happened and we found out we are completely out on a Saturday morning. Called O'Brien for an emergency fill up. They would only give us propane today if I committed to drop my current provider and use them going forward. Good job putting the "squeeze" on customers in their time of need. I would rather go without propane for 2 days than patronize a company with that type of business plan. read more

O'Brien Propane is one of those increasingly rare businesses where the human touch and consideration are still obvious and valued. During this latest ice storm, our propane tank went empty the first night-Jan 30. The long-time provider would not respond to any requests for speedy service--would only say the next delivery would happen by Feb. 15! Amazing... nor could we get calls returned over 48 hours of attempts. Meanwhile, our plight came to the attention of O'Brien Propane and a same-day propane delivery happened. Cleveland and his team have the integrity and honesty that is increasingly rare these days. Kudos to O'Brien Propane! Long may they prosper helping people with top-flight Service read more

We are new and proud customer because of the personal, professional and kind customer service. We had been waiting for our scheduled delivery for three weeks and had run out of propane during this time of waiting. I called O'Brien to see if they could help us out and they there at the house within the hour! Needless to say we have cancelled our other account and now O'Brien loyal customers read more

We have a steep driveway and never had any issues with Propane providers coming up our driveway in the past. O'Brien also did it several times with no issues but the last two times they did it, our driveway had scratches on it after. Obviously our driveway is the same so something has changed on their truck which caused the scratches. I spoke to the owner of the company and he was not very polite and said he had already raised some bar on the truck and could not do anything further about it. He basically told me to take my business elsewhere even though his truck had serviced our place multiple times without any issues - wasn't even interested in talking about options for how we could avoid the issue of scratching our driveway. Terrible customer experience. read more

Cleveland helped us out when we were in a pinch. Had his guys come out on an urgent basis and they helped us troubleshoot and understand our tank. We found out our tank wasn't set up properly and now we're getting a very reasonably priced tank through O'Brien. I can't recommend them enough for their customer service. They do what is right by the costumer. Their employees are friendly and professional. I am recommending them to everyone I know. read more

I am a new customer but have been very impressed with their responsiveness and service. The business owner, Tom Cleveland, is very friendly and inviting. Nice work folks. Thank you read more

This business has been super accommodating and helped us quickly. They answer their phone. Even offer installment payments. Excellent customer service! read more

My regular propane provider retired and I was on empty. The place that they forwarded to was too busy. It was cold and the range wouldn't work either. I went looking for a local provider. O'Brien answered the phone and was quick. Even with a tight schedule. They checked my system, all OK. Then he refilled the tank. I'll keep a closer eye on the tank now. It looks like O'Brien is my new propane provider. They also refill small tanks on Saturday morning. read more

Very, very disappointed. By the reviews I expected to be treated with at least a little respect. The first thing out of the box should have been a telltale sign when the technician showed up and sat in his truck in my driveway for 10 minutes while my wife stood there waiting outside his truck while he finished his snack. When he got out, he acted like he did not want to be there at all. He finally warmed up by saying a few words so we chalked it up to a bad day. Long story short we were told this was a turn key operation only to get a call an hour before install asking if I had done "my part" the tech showed up at 2:15 and sat in my driveway again and was very cold when he got out barely introducing himself and said he works "bankers hours" and would not set up our appliances for us and they would come back some other time. I was contacted by the owner who told me basically it was my fault that the guys could not do their job because they assumed that everything was ready even though they had been there and seen everything as is and even emailed asking if there was anything that I needed to do. I am in the customer service industry and honestly if I found out my guys treated a customer like this I would fire them on the spot. This was the worst experience I have had with any company on any level. I will certainly recommend that you look elsewhere. read more

O'Brien Propane is dependable, courteous and professional. We have used them twice and will continue to use them in future.

Cleveland is all about customer service. Called on a Saturday and they drove 30 minutes to climb down our steep hill to load our tank. So glad to have found them after our last (horrible) propane vendor. read more

We're in a house on propane for the first time this year. I didn't realize how often to check the levels and... we ran out of propane. Unfortunately, it was on the coldest winter night in years. When I called the owner on Saturday evening (past business hours), he didn't hesitate to drive out and give us enough fuel to get through the weekend until his team could fill us up on Monday. He offered - I didn't have to plead. He showed up within an hour, gave us some fuel in the dark with a flashlight, showed me how to relight every pilot light in the house, and even gave us some tips to increase our energy efficiency. When I tried to give him a tip for coming out so late on a Saturday night, he refused. O'Brien propane is a team of true professionals... couldn't recommend them more. They go way beyond the call of duty for their customers. read more

We are traveling in an RV and staying in a park in Dripping Springs. For the first time since we bought our rig, we had to add propane, but had problems at the park. We decided to see if a local propane company could help. O'Briens was the only one in the area who would even talk to my husband, and it was decided that we'd drive the rig on Saturday morning to their site on 290 to see if they could fill up the tank. Even with using a mallet to whack the tank a few times it was no go. Still, the customer service didn't just end there. The tech guy got on the phone and talked to the owner about the situation, and we got the name of someone who could do any necessary repairs, a guy called PropaneJack. These guys went above and beyond - and didn't even make a sale. True customer service. read more

Terrible customer service. It's been nearly impossible to get a tank refill scheduled. When I called, a rep named Larry gave me a 7-day window, but I never heard back. When I called again, I spoke to the owner Cleveland, whose behavior was alarming. He used expletives and and blamed me for the problem because I wanted to be on site because I have dogs. Cleveland is quite excitable and not easy to have a calm, constructive dialogue with so that we could find a solution. Instead I decided to go to Garnett Propane. The were very professional and were able to calmly schedule a refill for the next day. read more

I realized that I was being overcharged and borderline ripped off from my previous propane company so I cancelled service with the intent to find a new provider before my tank needed to be filled again. Fast forward to 2 days before Thanksgiving in which I'm hosting dinner and I realized that I never got around to finding a new provider and my tank is running extremely low. I called these guys after reading great reviews and, while not being able to make any promises, was told they would do everything they could to get to me before Thanksgiving. The guy showed up that day, did a safety inspection to check for leaks and filled the tank. Larry even gave me helpful tips on the phone as to why my gas stove was cooking a certain way so I could resolve it. My last company truly didn't know what customer service was so I was utterly stunned at how fantastic this company was and has continued to be in regards to taking care of their customers. Bonus: the cost is very affordable in comparison to other providers. Highly recommend! read more

O'Brien has delivered to our neighborhood on Rugged Earth Drive many times, they are courteous, professional, and local! We have found their prices to be competitive with other Propane providers in the area. read more

O'Brien Propane hands down offers the best customer service! Cleveland O'Brien and his staff are professional, competitively priced, always available and totally customer driven. They work with my schedule for deliveries, they even tell me the best time (based on market prices of propane) to fill up or just get enough! Try them, you'll be happy! read more

I'm embarrassed to say that on more than one occasion we have found our propane tank on empty because we have not kept track of the gas level. Yet on these occasions when we call O'Brien Propane and ask for a fill they are always extremely friendly and courteous and, even better, they have been able to get our large tank filled the very same day. We will never use another provider as long as they are around, and can not recommend them enough. They don't come any better than these guys! read more

With colder weather quickly approaching, we called up O'Brien propane again to have them come out and top off our propane tank and show us how to run the gas fireplace. Once again, Cleveland was extremely helpful and very customer oriented. After filling up our tank, he came inside and inspected the gas fireplace for leaks using some leakdown testing fluid. He found a small leak in a valve and tightened it. He then proceeded to show us how to use the ignitor and controls for the gas fireplace. He even turned it all off and had me turn it back on while he watched, just to make sure I was comfortable doing it. Great business with great customer service. These guys are top notch. read more

My propane ran out just as some 40 degree weather hit. They were very nice on the phone and had someone out to my house the same day. Hot water...oh yeah! read more

Very helpful folks. Long ago; I was driving down the road w/ a propane tank on my trailer, and got a flat. I happened to be near their old location on Thomas Springs road, and Cleveland pulled up behind me, waved me onto his property and actually helped me change a tire. Not only that, but later on, he helped me find the cheapest way to hook up the stuff for my new tank, ....stuff my previous provider wouldn't even think of. O'brien has always been a helpful company. Their employees are attentive and creative in giving absolutely great service. It's a 100% "no-brainer" to go with this company. They treat you like family. ... A rarity in this day and age. Glad I found them. Ed Reynolds. read more

I have come to O'Brien's for six years, to fill my 20 & 30 lb tanks. I've come to know Cleveland, as a friend, and look forward to the Saturday visits. He's the best kind of businessman to do business with; he's someone I trust. read more

Absolutely a blessing to have found OBrien propane. We have never received customer service with a smile from previous providers. They are prompt and professional! I would highly recommend. read more

Love these guys - always prompt and courteous, very easy to work with. 5 stars!

On Saturday he fills portable propane bottles. Went there a while back to fill one up for my travel trailer. Very pleasant and very reasonable price. This time when I went he wouldn't take my money and said "Happy Father's Day". This is the guy you want to fill your tanks at home or portable. Made my day. read more

Cleveland is a nice and super helpful guy. We have used him for years now. He monitor spropane prices and fill up when they dip, saving us money. Highly recommend. read more

Great service, friendly and excellent prices. What more do you need? I called yesterday late afternoon and they came today. The crew was efficient, courteous and professional. This was my first time refilling our tank for our new home and they have won our business for a long time. read more

Amazing service! Tuesday night, I smelled propane leaking from our tank. He was at our house within 15 minutes and kindly explained the problem and had it fixed right away. Then came inside and restarted the water tank and even adjusted our stove burners. Very helpful and I'd recommend them to anyone! read more

These guys are WOW ! Fast, efficient , good price , accommodate your needs . Highly recommend!

When I realized the lease I had with another company was costing me twice as much per gallon of propane I started shopping for a new provider and a tank that I could buy. Cleveland was, of course, the only person I spoke with who suggested I try to buy the tank that was already at my house! This would mean that I wouldn't need to buy a tank from him...if only EVERY vendor had customer service ethic like this. Whether I keep the tank I have or buy one from O'Brien Propane, Cleveland has a new customer for life. Thank you!!! read more

I can't say enough good things about O'Brien Propane. I have had three opportunities to have them out to my house. Their customer service is top notch. You will not be disappointed. read more
