Good local provider of propane and gas-related appliances. They arrive promptly and keep the tanks full. Pricing is not too bad for this area.
They charged me $4.98 a gallon A 30% increase in 2 months. Just as a reference, Forbes fuel which is one town away is charging $1.95 a gallon. I'm filing a complaint with the state as well
On November 12, 2024 HOCON charged a unit price of $2.39 per gallon. As of 12/21/24 we received service three days earlier than the scheduled service date at a unit price of $4.58-- a nearly 91% increase in less than a month without notifying us of the increase. According to the state of CT increases of this measure and time frame can be considered price gauging. According to the US energy information administration the current market rate in CT is $2.3-$3.8 with residential rates falling around $2.3-$3.4. Do your costumers ... read more
Hi there, HOCON has been unable to resolve our billing issue or over a month. They prematurely charged us for tanks. We started our account when into our home in January 2024. They charged us in November 2024 instead of January 2025. We've asked for a reimbursement and after speaking with Tony and Melissa, we still have not seen a reimbursement. In addition they are charging for tank when many other companies are not. I will pull our account should we not receive immediate remediation by Monday December 9th. This is unaccept... read more
Business response:
It does appear that the tank lease fee was billed out on 10/31/2024, however, it was credited back to the account on 11/1/2024. There was an ACH payment made on 11/5/2024, leaving a balance equal to the lease fee. However, on 11/12 an additional delivery was made to the tank using the credit balance that had been placed on the account at time of delivery. The current credit balance on the account is $15.41, resulting in no payment due, but will be utilized towards the next delivery the customer receives. We apologize that th... read more
They are the worst. I encourage everyone to start filing police complaints.

Hocon was good the first year, but now just awful. We prepay for propane and they do not deliver until we call several times. We are totally dissatisfied, and we have tried to speak with someone at their office but they simply do not care about the customer. Once they get the money, you are of no importance.
This company charged me an exorbitant price of $7.55 per gallon and an additional $70 per year for renting the tank. However, I managed to find another company that only charges $10 per month for tank rent to own and $1.95 per gallon for fuel delivery. It seems that Hocon company is taking advantage of a loophole where they can charge whatever they want as long as you don't reach a minimum of 1000 gallons per year. This is a clear display of terrible customer service and a company that does not prioritize the well-being of i... read more
This is the second year in a row they have auto filled my propane tank when I’ve asked them to NOT auto fill. This year I tried not paying the bill until I needed more. They did it again in spite of me not paying my bill, they filled my tank at end of season!
Business response:
We endeavor to respond to all customer request and concerns immediately. There was no indication that the customer has ever been on will-call over the past 5 years servicing the location. Hocon generally requires a customer sign a "Will Call Letter" to indicate their understanding of their obligations of when to call for deliveries, what to expect from that type of service, etc. There is no will-call letter on file. We have tried to discuss the situation with the customer and work this out for her and have requested she call... read more
From the first phone call to the last email, I had the best experience dealing with Karen in the ********** **location. I was nervous about having the tank put into the yard, she walked me right through from step on to the end of the project. I would recommend them to all that ask !
