All tanks must be inspected by Rhoads Energy before filling. If your tank doesn’t pass, you can:

  • Try to re-certify it with Rhoads Energy
  • Buy a new one

Step 3 - Payment – Card now Accepted

  • All propane transactions must now be paid for outside. Cash and card options are available for your convenience:
    • Cash: $5 per fill
    • Card: $5.50 per fill (plus tax)
      • This fee is to cover all credit card fees incurred. 
  • Please leave your tank outside after payment—we’ll have a holding area ready.

Step 4 - Enjoy the Event While You Wait!

  • Come inside for popcorn, stuff-a-bag sale, and a chance to win raffle prizes.
