- Tank Placement: The propane tank will be set on a stable, level surface such as a concrete pad or lintels for aboveground tanks. Underground tanks will be buried using screenings and anode to protect from corrosion. We will position the propane tank in a way that allows easy access for maintenance, filling, and safety inspections.

Every interaction with the Sheller team has been great. Called them out to help with the propane side of a generator installation for my mom. Glenn Sheller came out to assess the site and made some smart recommendations. I communicated several times with various office staff for scheduling and some special requests. All went as planned and as promised. More importantly to me these days, someone ACTUALLY picks up the phone! That alone has value in a world of endless menu prompts, hold times, and impersonal-call centers.

Amazing experience from start to finish. Easy to get my quote, set the date, today arrived right on time. They were friendly and knowledgeable. They installed the tankless water heater, removed the old one and left the place better than they found it. Thank you
Awesome service, great prices. Debbie and the rest of the team are always there to help. We've been getting gas from Sheller for 15 years and never a problem. Debbie always checks in with us just as we're ready to order.
Have used this company for many years. Always excellent service
My furnace wouldn't run when the temperature was turned up. Called Sheller Oil, they sent a repair person out to look at the issue. A pipe above the furnace had a pinhole and was spraying water all over the furnace. I was informed of the parts needed to make repairs and the cost. While making initial repairs, it was discovered water had been drawn into the chamber and it would need to be replaced. Dale kept me informed of everything he was doing, the cost of parts and requested permission before proceeding with the repairs. I can't say enough about the courtesy and professional manner extended to me by Dale or the entire Sheeler personnel I spoke with. Thank you
Great professional service. Very courteous and friendly!
