local question/number for gas company

Does anyone have a number for the gas company? We need our tank refilled, and the phone numbers we used in the past no longer seem to be in service. Itīs been a couple days now, and I am dying for a hot shower!

seems to be a fairly constant problem
we had to drive way out Juarez to the gas facility
to have susie's filled
(btw....rough road out that way)

If you see the Z Gas lorry they have the number too but they won't fill you up. You have to book an appointment by phone and inform them how much you want to spend. The driver will bring the bill for you to pay.

You can't grab them in the street and make a cash payment.

Thanks everyone! The Z-Gas number James gave was the one I had already, but I tried it a moment ago, and it is back in service. Hot shower tomorrow!

I saw the truck go by minutes ago (the one with small cylinders) and the number was the same, so I called it and ordered some gas for tomorrow (just for fun... and my neighbor needs some for a new stationary tank). Let's see if it shows up.

When you have a delivery ask the driver for his cell. We did that almost a year ago and call the driver for our area directly and get gas by next day sometimes same day. Dont know if all drivers are as good probably not but maybe yours is.

A "keep the change" tip is not forgotten by the driver also, in my experience...
