Our Town Energy
Desert Dweller:
I was in a similar situation this Spring with a newer house and a leased 500 gallon underground tank (no charge for tank lease). My supplier was not Eastern. I joined Our Town ($25.00) and got their 2015-2016 prices. If I were to use Eastern, they would have to buy the tank from my supplier (not a sure thing as I understand it) and then Eastern would charge me something like $175.00 per year to rent the tank. I think it was more for a 1,000 gallon tank. Using the price information from Our Town, I was able to negotiate a fixed price for propane from my existing supplier which was slightly less than the rate quoted by Eastern when the fee for the tank rental was factored in.
