The propane autogas refueling station will provide 24/7 autogas refueling for the private sector, propane fleets, the City of Exeter’s propane pickup trucks and lawn mowers, and the local school district’s new, cleaner- burning propane powered school buses. Ted Olsen, ARRO Autogas Market Manager stated, “What better way to celebrate ARRO Autogas’ 20th autogas refueling station than with the public sector.”

We are excited about being able to offer a 24-hour alternative fuel source to our residents, as well as the general public.”
