March 28, 2025

Securing the best deal on residential propane in Michigan involves a few strategies. We are going to help outline a few tips and tricks to help you have reliability and pricing that is right for your budget.

Invest in a Tank

If your budget allows invest in owning your own propane tank. This an upfront cost but in the long run can save you some money. Keep in mind you will have to maintain your tank and ensure your supplier is leak testing if you ever smell gas.

If you don't have it in your budget to buy a tank look into the lease options and make sure to find a program that waives the fee with minimum usage. For example if you go with Baker's if you use a minimum amount of gallons after your first year we waive the lease fee!

Sign up for Price Protection Programs

Don't miss the deadline for winter price protection programs. Often there is tight deadlines. Call your local office, sign up for emails and put on your calendar. At Baker's Propane if you have signed up in the past and we have your email address on file look for an email or fill out this request form for more information.

Don't let your tank get below 20%

Even in the summer keep an eye on your tank percentage! It will cost you a lot of extra money if you run out of gas completely. You have to be home for a leak test, potential emergency delivery fee, and other unnecessary inconveniences. We suggest getting on our keep full program to make sure you are never running out of gas.

Switch for a cents per Gallon?

New propane companies or ones offering great deals for new customers likely will increase your prices once you have switched.
