Verified Buyer | Miami, FloridaEquipment Rental $48.00 + tax $3.24 on top of your Propane cost .Not only that, They want to charge for ,Bulk Tank Rent which is $48.00 + tax. I own the tank! Pure greed. Most charge no fees!!
I started getting bills for equipment and tank rental which I own. I searched other Propane businesses and went elsewhere.

Verified ReviewerBecause they are an awful company
They closed my father's account because he hadn't used it for 2 years. That might be okay, but they should definitely notify the customer.
You then have to pay over 100 dollars to start a new account. And they turned him down. Why? Because he hadn't needed propane?
Tried to go with another company, they required information that Suburban Propane would have had, had they not deleted everything. Do not trust them.
Customer service is rude to top things off. Do not do business with Suburban Propane.
- Do things with your account without notifying
Horrible customer service
We called for almost a week for an "emergency" delivery. Every time we called we were given an excuse or told a different lie.
They advertise 24/7/365 Emergency deliveries this is so not true.
They can care less about their customers. Plus, they charge their customers more for propane than other companies.
User's recommendation: Find someone else

Verified Reviewer | Washington Court House, OhioTried to switch provider
Had a $1100 credit on the account. Switched to a different company and after all the *** charges, and they recovered 310 gallons of propane, I got a check for $400.
These people are absolute crooks in my opinion.
Do not deal with these people. You'll be sorry.
User's recommendation: Avoid at all costs
Current disgruntled customer
My cost for propane went from $3.599 to $5.599 from April to September 2024. A $2.00 per gal increase in 5 months given to a 25-year customer that paid bills on time.
The CT residential cost for propane on the September date of delivery was $3.586.
I called, $1.50 relief offered instantly; why? They wouldn't clearly explain the reason for the spike, it was all BS.
They just lost a 25-year customer because of sheer price gauging and greed. Goodbye Suburban!

Verified Reviewer | Seattle, WashingtonZero stars- became suburban customer due to them buying out my neighborhood propane vendor who we loved. Hard to read/understand invoice. Over priced propane (August, $4/gal)excessive delivery fee.
Called for a top off, August. $3.98 gallon
Guy had to reset his meter,while at my house, which resulted in a second delivery charge, $9.17x 2.
Cant wait to cancel the agreement.
User's recommendation: Choose another independent distributor.

Verified ReviewerRipoffs
This company charged me $800 and did absolutely nothing for me. They alleged they applied for a permit.
I saw no permit application and they were unable to complete the job. I had to pay another company to do the work they were supposed to do. Communication is horrid. The woman named Mirna in the office is impossible very difficult.
Didnt do the job and would not remove the bill. She forced me to pay for something they didnt do.
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Don’t use this company

Verified Reviewer | Largo, FloridaOver charged
Suburban let my gas completely run out. When they came they told me my stove was bad and I had a leak.
I hired a private company who they referred to check it out. Largo piping and gas said the stove had no leaks. Suburban disconnected my stove and put another red tag on it. Largo piping came while Suburban was still at my house and did manometer test right in front of Suburban tech.
He stated that he called his boss and was told to still put a red tag on my stove. Now I just received a $400 bill for him doing that.
User's recommendation: Don't let Suburban do any work they don't know what they are doing.
This company has the worst customer service ever!! I paid for a maintenance contract, they scheduled a date, never showed up nor called to reschedule and no refunds
Called 3 times to explain i never received the service i paid for and upper management pretty much said tough ***
User's recommendation: Call other peopane companies

Verified ReviewerSuburban propane the worst propane service you can have they charged me for a tank test $364.00 they never performed. A month later after l pre paid $2023.00 which included a $200.00 emergency fill .
After I received the bill a month later I ask why they said . Oh we just forgot to bill it when I called and ordered it .
I ask to speak to the local manager . I was told he was out to lunch but he never called me back . A week later they called me said if I didnt pay the $354.00 they would come out and turn my propane off. So I drove to my local Suburban distributor and finally talked to the manager.
I told him the whole story did not care what I said about the test not being done. So I paid the $354.00 and told him. That I call him to come and get his tank out of my yard . I was switching propane service to another propane company.
He basically didnt care.
I purchased over 5k of propane from Suburban over the last year so Im taking my propane business to another propane provider. Do Not Use Suburban propane for any of your propane needs you will regret it as I have.
- Poor service and no customer satisfaction
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Never use Suburban propane to many other good propane providers
Failed to stop billing for tankd
No matter how many times you call and tell them you sold your house and the new owner took them over. They continue too bill you for tank rentall you now longer own. This is the worst propane company I have ever delt with.
New customer
We moved, being our first time with propane, heats and cooking. I called our local office.
Angie answered the phone. She explained in detail how everything works.
She took the time to explain the different ways we could be set up. Very helpful.
User's recommendation: Very helpful and understanding

Verified ReviewerIllegal Operations
Here I am again.
In late fall, Suburban Propane came onto my property and filled up my tank without authorization.
I didnt need any propane, I didnt request for a fill, I didnt approve a fill. For years I have told them to take me off auto-fill (they keep claiming they do, but they dont).
So, I requested the Drivers call me BEFORE filling my tank as I must give verbal approval; so at least I can tell them, no I dont need any and get it on record that I do not want their auto refill.
Well, they came, of course right when people are at work or picking up kids and very likely not to be home!
They called, acknowledged they must call first (yes I still have the VM), and thenFilled my tank anyway as I was not home to stop them.
I made a complaint as always, new manager told me after an hour long discussion of every problem I have had well I can maybe deeply discount the propane because thats more cost effective than coming to take the fuel back out.
Said hed call me back after he got to the office. Even told me they are forcing people to be on auto-fill!
I did NOT agree to anything. I told him I did not want this fuel, I didnt request it, didnt need it.
Its absolutely illegal to force a product into a customer who did not need or request it and then force them to pay for it!
Well, no phone call came, until yesterday with them threatening me once again to pay, or they will lock the tank. Then, like a mafia thug, they come during working hours (around 3pm) and locked my tank (its recorded).
This time, Im getting an Attorney.
Ive got so many witnesses, VMs, and even evidence.
Suburban Propane operates by illegally forcing people to pay for a product they didnt request or approve delivery of then shuts off their connection if they dont pay.
This is illegal mafia thug behavior. Not legitimate business behavior.
Best to unlock my tank, SP.
Preferred solution: Unlock my tank, and stop trying to charge me for a product I didn’t request. Your mistake is not my responsibility. If I need fuel, I’ll call.
User's recommendation: Do not use SP, ever.
