Most portable propane tanks—like those used for grills, travel trailers, and RVs—are Department of Transportation (DOT) cylinders. The DOT requires these tanks to be recertified at specific intervals to ensure they operate safely. At our Thibodaux locaiton, we handle this inspection and recertification process for you.
Look for the date stamped into the collar of your propane tank. Recertification is generally required between 5 and 12 years after that date. Larger stationary tanks may also require recertification, though through a different process. Don’t worry—you don’t have to navigate the rules alone. Our team in Thibodaux will walk you through everything when you bring your tank in.
Absolutely. We offer propane bottles from small portable tanks up to 43.5 lb cylinders.
