We offer heating fuel deliveries and equipment sales and installations to residents and businesses in New Hampshire and parts of Vermont, Massachusetts, and Maine. We have been one of the region's leading heating companies since 1969, when Rymes Propane & Oil began providing New Englanders with heating service.
That year, Jim and Carol Rymes traded in their family car for a pick-up truck that they used to start a business delivering propane to local homes and commercial properties. Over time, the business grew and branched out to offer a variety of heating fuels and service. Since then, Rymes has carefully built a solid reputation for superior service at affordable prices.

Heating by fuel is an incredibly popular way of home heating in New England. Did you know that the majority of rural New England residents heat by oil, propane, or kerosene? By contrast, most states in the South heat by electricity, which is thought to be less effective. Here in the Northeast, we need our heating source to be as efficient as possible during long bitter-cold winters.
Looking for a propane delivery? Your search is over. Rymes is one of the leading propane suppliers in New England, servicing all of New Hampshire and parts of Vermont, Massachusetts, and Maine. Each time you get a propane delivery, you can expect to receive excellent service, as we have been one of the top propane companies in the region for over 45 years.
Heating your home by oil? Then you might already know about all of the benefits of heating with this particular fuel. At Rymes, we like to assure our customers that heating by oil is very safe. For starters, it will not catch fire in its liquid state. In other words, if you try to light heating oil on fire, it simply won't work.

Service and maintenance division is a complete farce and literally lied to us about services they charged us for.
We've paid them for cleaning and service our furnace and it was not completed.
I had a small local business in my home report that no cleaning had been done and that is the primary reason we have had no heat AND no hot water for 2 days.
I would stay away from their service and cleaning and maintenance division.
Trying to contract a new delivery service as well.

Their slogan is "Why pay more" when in reality "Why pay less." is more accurate. Moved into a new home in late 2018 and found out our Propane supplier was Rymes. At first, the company was fair, but quickly they showed their true colors. During 2020, we were told if we were going to have an addition to our home, we would need to call Rymes for them… to check the exhaust out for our system. We did as we were told, and before I know it, the guy shows up and is gone He was here for less than two minutes. A week later we get a $110 bill, because the guy turned the exhaust pipe for 4 seconds.

I have been a Rymes customer for about 15 years and always paid my bills on time. In the past couple of years , something has changed at Rymes. Their billing department is very messed up. The discount they offer if paid within 10 days is often unachievable because the truck delivers oil, then it takes 5 days for them to send the bill out, and by… the time you get the bill the 10 days is passed. I pay my bills on time. I recently got a bill for 2.54 cents from a year ago. First time I have heard of it. I am of course paying it today, and sending them a letter today informing them they they

Currently supply me with Propane for the last 10 years. Called to have a propane fireplace installed.
Was told they were booking out 2 months for site reviews. Wow! but Covid is messing all of us up some. So okay I wait. After 2 month wait I get a call day before visit scheduled from A women named “Cho” I think can’t make out name on voicemail.
… Leaves voicemail that they don’t do inside work anymore and if that is what I need than call someone else. This crap after I wasted 2 months waiting. No way to treat a 10 year customer. Booooboooooo to you

Horrible, horrible company. They refuse to level their tanks regardless of how hazardous the tanks are. They will allow you to run out of propane multiple times during the winter even though you have auto delivery, and won’t send anyone out after hours to fill your tanks. Instead, they recommend you use space heaters and then don’t show up until… late afternoon the next day because you not having propane is not a priority for them. And they will not allow you to actually cancel your services even when your contract with them has ended. This company is a nightmare!

I've been a Rymes customer for over 10 years. They've always been reliable and their pricing is competitive. On the rare occasion that our usage exceeded their estimates (this has happened twice that I can recall) and we ran out of oil, they've made emergency deliveries, once even well after 9:00pm.
They have a number of payment plans to fit any budget, and they also offer the option to 'lock' pricing. If you're expectations in an oil supplier are reasonable, Rymes will never let you down!

Extremely rude after hours call center lady answered the phone. Could not answer my question. Refused to have someone call me that could answer the question. My only option was to wait until Monday (today is Friday) or be charged $165 for a tech to come out in about 3 hours. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!! Just unreal how I was just treated. After using this company for over 6 years I will be shopping around.

This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. I take time off from work to have them come out and give me a quote on installing a stove in my 3 season room and a heater in my garage. This would be a complete install including the tank, and piping. They were late getting there. The employee said they get back to me in a couple days with a quote. After a week I called and talked to the woman that answered the phone and she check with someone then told me they were waiting for a price from a vendor. It has now been 5 weeks since they came out and I have not received a quote or a call from them

Good afternoon Karigan,
I have actually spoke to someone today from you office, who basically stated this is my problem not Rhymes and insisted that I never had a contract with your company in the first place. The first initial payment was not processed and I was never contacting regarding the missed payment, which was due with the contract prior to or on October 28, 2018. However gas and tanks were delivered on November 1, 2018 and more gas delivered on November 5, 2018 without

I am not a customer of your company, and after my experience with you over these past two days, I never will be. You delivered oil to my house, even though I called you during the delivery, because my security cameras were tripped, and told you to stop because I am not a customer. Your driver had to drive past the address marker and walk past the address plate on the front of my house that clearly stated we are on the odd side of the street, when you were supposed to deliver to my neighbor across the street. You overfilled my brand new oil tank - thank god it didn't spill into my basement. You

Use them for my kerosene for my heating system, so the most logical thing when I had a propane line installed to have a gas stove installed instead of electric was to use rymes. When they were dropping the tank the inspector came and said he wanted something changed which I had the install co take care of right away. Inspector approved and I called rymes to have them connect the tank they dropped. Was told not until Dec.24th now. My son is medically fragile, epileptic, heart condition, multiple food allergies. I can't just grab him takeout. Every meal has to be prepared and can't be microwaved

Rymes is a joke if you have kerosene. They had been our provider for nearly 7 years we thought they were trustworthy. They gave us an estimate for $1650 to replace our fuel tank then charged us $2000, including $500 for labor for 3 of their guys to goof around and parts galore. Less than a week later both of our kerosene heaters had fuel line error codes - both lines had sludge in them, even though Rymes swore that they filtered the fuel. Since when is kerosene black? How does that happen after you just replaced the tank and the fuel lines????? Then their guy spent 4 hours on my living floor

I Called Rymes Propane today to switch my services. Shayla W Assisted me in setting up a New account. Of course I was irritated with another Company so my mood wasn't the greatest. She did an outstanding job helping me and making me feel like I was calling the right place. She was knowledgeable, answered all of my questions and concerns. It was great to deal with someone who obviously likes her job, has great people skills. I'm very happy to be doing business with Rymes Propane & Oil. The seem to have it together and hire & train the right people!

This company has the worst service I've ever experienced. They moved into the Martha's Vineyard market a while ago and I succumbed to their aggressive marketing, touting themselves as the only truly local alternative. Our local provider had been purchased by Amerigas a couple of years before and we had noticed a change in service there so we fell for it, especially since they matched our discounted price. Scroll ahead a year and we've run out of propane in our 500 gallon tank (last delivery was in October, it is now March 1). They claimed their projections must be off, probably because
