Therefore, forklifts on the farm can prove to be a vital tool to lift, carry or stack goods.

Fleet/Light-Duty Trucks

Propane autogas is powering the medium-duty vehicles of businesses across the country, including bakery, food, and beverage companies, pickup and delivery companies, and linen businesses.  With propane autogas, you can skip the downtime typically caused by diesels extra repairs and maintenance. Propane autogas vehicles also provide superior cold-weather performance compared with diesel.  Small-budget fleets with limited space, or fleets needing more fueling locations along their routes can take advantage of this option with no infrastructure investment. Network refueling stations are accessible 24/7 through a card lock system. If a network is not currently available in your area, a propane provider may create one for your fleet, if its large enough. Alternatively, multiple fleets can team up to provide adequate load for requesting a refueling network.  You have choices when it comes to selecting the right vehicles for your fleet. Medium-duty models are available from major manufacturers — as both OEM-dedicated vehicles and EPA/CARB-certified aftermarket conversions.

Propane Safety

Propane is a safe and efficient fuel, but below are a few facts and safety measures to help make you aware of the steps to take in the event of an unlikely problem with your propane system, just in case there ever is one.  Propane has an odorant added to ensure that you could smell it in the event of a leak. Many people say it smells like rotten eggs.  If you ever suspect that theres a propane leak in your home, leave the building immediately. Use the shut-off valve on your tank to turn the gas off. Go to a neighbors to use the phone and call us. Do not re-enter your home until a professional has told you its okay to do so.
