Rightway and Stratford Propane

In 2001, Jack Nowinsky bought Rightway Propane from Cliff Schultz and started out as a one-man operation.  Jack answered all the phone calls, delivered all the gas and did all the paperwork.  During the first year of business, Jack delivered  an impressive 700,000 gallons of propane.  Rightway Propanes customer base steadily grew requiring Jack to bring on more help.    In addition to Jack and his wife, Amanda, Rightway Propane currently employs 5 delivery drivers, 1 semi transport driver and 3 office personnel.  In 2016, they delivered more than 3 million gallons of  propane to over 7,000 customers.     In 2009, in response to the demand from the western portion of his delivery area, Jack started Stratford Propane. Founded on the same principle of hard work and great customer service, Stratford Propane has been a valuable addition. Stratford Propane currently shares drivers and office personnel with Rightway Propane, and delivers just over 1 million  gallons of propane to 1,000+ customers.     In 2015, in order to better serve our customers, we added a third terminal in Hatley and purchased the Cox Auto building for our office. In an effort to make the office building 'ours' we have since re-painted it and built a garage and lean-to for our delivery trucks.  Our new logo reflects both our Rightway and Stratford families.    As our delivery area continues to expand, it is important that we strive to be as efficient as possible.  To address turn around time and service our customers quicker, our latest endeavor was the recent purchase of a fourth terminal tank in Vesper.

Gas appliance safety is a top priority. If you smell gas in your home, follow these steps:

• Immediately put out all smoking materials and other open flames.

• Do not operate lights, appliances, telephones, or cell phones. Flames or sparks from these sources can trigger an explosion or a fire.

• Get everyone out of the building or area where you suspect gas is leaking
• Turn off the main gas supply valve on your propane tank if it is safe to do so

• To close valve, turn it clockwise (to the right)

• From a neighbors home or other nearby building away from the gas leak,  call your propane retailer right away. If you cant reach your propane  retailer, call 911 or your local fire department.
• Your propane retailer, emergency responder, or qualified service technician will determine when it is safe to do so.
• Before you attempt to use any of your propane appliances, your propane  retailer or a qualified service technician must check your entire system  to ensure that it is leak-free
