Beck & Root Lets You Pay YOUR Way!

Why pay upfront for several month’s worth of propane?

Metered Propane

With our metered tank system, you only pay for what you use.

At Root 66/Beck & Root Propane, we understand firsthand that every household is different. Some use propane for heating, hot water and several appliances, while others only have gas logs and a firepit. Some may have fuel-intensive, vital products like pool heaters and standby generators. In certain months, you may use a whole tank of propane, and then you could go several months without needing a propane delivery at all. Contact us to learn more!

Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to pay just for the propane you actually used like you do for natural gas or electricity?

Beck & Root Propane now offers our customers an innovative, convenient way to say goodbye to paying for whole tanks of fuel at delivery. It’s called a Metered Propane System. When you do business with us, you can expect the unexpected.

Pay as You Go with a Metered Propane Tank System

How does a metered system work? Exactly like your standard utilities like electricity, water and natural gas.

For less than a dollar a day, we will install a complete metering system similar to a natural gas connection. Once installed, you only pay for the propane you use, not what’s sitting in the tank.

Our customers love this option because:

They can plan their energy budgets more easily based on how often they’re using their propane appliances
They do not need to track a tank gauge anymore. Root 66/Beck & Root keeps your tank reliably filled year-round.
The convenience is unbeatable. It’s the ease of metered gas service with the responsive, personal touch of a local propane provider.

What Do You Want to Know About Metered Systems?

When do I need to call for a propane delivery?

Never! When you have a Root 66/Beck & Root metered system, we’ll keep the tank filled for you.
You don’t need to worry about tracking your propane levels.

I want to change to a metered tank, but I already paid for a propane delivery. How does that work?

If you’re a current Root 66/Beck & Root leased-tank customer who has been paying for deliveries,
we will issue you an account credit for the fuel in your tank when you switch to metered service.

Can I do metered service if I own my tank?

We only lease metered propane tank systems. With that said, talk to us if you own your tank.
We can offer metered service with a tank buy-back. Plus, there are other payment and pricing
options available to customers who own their propane tanks. (See below.)

Is there a charge for a metered propane tank system?

There is a nominal one-time setup fee for the system. After that, you pay a monthly leasing charge.

Own Your Tank? Why Not Try Our Budget Pay Plan?

If you own your tank and a metered system will not fit your needs, we still offer a way to stabilize your monthly energy costs and free you from the big delivery invoices. With our no-fee Budget Pay Plan, you will always know what you are paying for. We divide your annual fuel costs into averaged, equal monthly installments (reviewed annually and adjusted).

Take the Uncertainty Out of Your Propane Deliveries.

Your needs and priorities are unique to you. Everyone should be able to budget for their home energy in a way that works for them.
