What recent reviews say

Suburban Propane attracts strong loyalty for individual technicians and customer service staff who take time with customers, deliver on time, and handle emergencies well. However, the company battles a pattern of uninvited deliveries, hidden charges, billing mistakes that take months to fix, chronic no-shows, and emergency wait times exceeding six hours, leaving many customers frustrated despite pockets of excellent service.

Praised for
  • friendly, patient technicians
  • honest sales approach
  • responsive staff (named individuals)
  • quick emergency response
Watch-outs
  • unauthorized fill-ups and surprise charges
  • long wait times for emergency calls
  • billing errors and price disputes
  • no-show or late service appointments
  • poor communication and follow-up

  • online account setup available
  • transparent technicians who decline unnecessary fills

Worth knowing

  • Technicians Mike, Chad, Doc Phil, Mark praised for professionalism and knowledge
  • Staff member Dori and Margaret repeatedly named for customer service recovery
  • Unauthorized fill-ups reported multiple times without customer consent
  • Billing disputes over rates (from $4 to $8.17 per gallon on same customer) and service call charges ($160 service fees mentioned)
  • Emergency hold times cited as 470+ minutes
  • Tank replacement and regulator/piping charges ($150 regulator, $35/foot piping)
  • One customer's billing error took nearly a year to resolve

Detweiler's Propane Gas Service, Lc

3.9(56)✓ Google-verified

Most customers praise fast service, fair prices, and a consistently helpful team. Staff like Melanie, Ann, Marie, April, and Jeff are named for their friendliness and responsiveness, and reviewers using automatic refill report smooth, efficient experiences. A small number report communication gaps during installs and occasional rudeness, but these accounts are outweighed by five-star testimonials spanning over a decade of loyalty.

U-Haul Moving & Storage of North Sarasota

3.8(135)✓ Google-verified

Staff at this North Sarasota location consistently earn praise for friendliness and speed. Trucks, trailers, and storage are handled smoothly, with several reviewers noting quick turnarounds and cleanliness. However, U-Box customers report serious tracking issues and unmet delivery promises. Aaron, Juan, and Colstan are named multiple times for exceptional service. The 3.8 rating reflects strong execution on rentals and storage offsetting frustration with U-Box's corporate logistics. Individual staff effort matters here: reviewers thank specific employees by name for going beyond the standard transaction. Pick a staff member you trust if you're moving locally; proceed cautiously with cross-country U-Box moves.
