Local LPG with the convenience of modern delivery

General Store Gas combines the things locals value about dealing with a nearby business with the technology that makes delivery easier to organise and easier to follow.

Our delivery service is run from Upper Beaconsfield by the same local business you can call or visit in person.

Next business day

Eligible 45kg LPG orders are scheduled for next-business-day local delivery, subject to service conditions.

Useful delivery updates

Order your way

Order online at any time, drop into the General Store or call us on (03) 5944 3310.

Simple local delivery

How 45kg LPG delivery works

Once your General Store Gas cylinders are in place, replacing an empty bottle is straightforward.

1

Order your replacement

Order a 45kg bottle online, in store or by phone when one of your General Store Gas cylinders is empty.

2

We schedule it

Your local delivery is scheduled and you receive an SMS update with your delivery information.

3

Follow the delivery

On delivery day, our updates and driver tracking help you follow the delivery as it heads your way.

4

We exchange the cylinder

Where access and the existing bottle position are safe and suitable, the empty rental cylinder is exchanged for a full one.

You do not need to wait until both bottles are empty. A two-cylinder setup gives you a practical reserve. Reorder when one bottle is empty so the second bottle can remain available while the empty cylinder is replaced.

The two-bottle setup

Why most 45kg LPG customers start with two bottles

A two-cylinder setup is a simple way to keep LPG available while one empty cylinder is being replaced. It also makes reordering easier because you can order the empty bottle rather than waiting for both cylinders to run out.

1
One bottle becomes empty

Your second cylinder remains available as the reserve within your existing LPG setup.

2
Order the replacement

Place the order online, in store or by phone rather than waiting until you have no LPG left.

3
We swap the empty rental cylinder

The empty General Store Gas bottle is exchanged for a full cylinder at the suitable existing bottle position.

Delivered by the same local team you can call or visit

General Store Gas is part of the Upper Beaconsfield General Store. Our delivery team works across the same Hills communities our stores and services support every day, with delivery organised locally rather than through a remote customer service centre.

For LPG, our local fleet includes a ute set up for gas delivery with a rear gas lift to help handle heavy cylinders. If you have access questions before ordering, call us and talk to the team that actually organises the deliveries.

Need to understand vehicle access?

Our fleet page shows the different vehicles we use, including the LPG delivery ute and its approximate access dimensions.

Technology that makes local service easier

Know when your LPG is coming

We have kept the local phone number and local delivery team, then added the tools that make delivery easier to follow.

SMS scheduling updates

Once your delivery is scheduled, SMS updates help you know the expected delivery timing without needing to chase us for an answer.

On-the-way driver tracking

When the delivery is on the road, tracking helps you follow the driver as your LPG gets closer to your property.

45kg LPG delivery areas

Delivering across the Hills from Upper Beaconsfield

General Store Gas delivers 45kg LPG to eligible homes and businesses across our local service area, including the eastern Dandenong Ranges, Casey foothills and nearby Cardinia communities.

Delivery eligibility can vary by exact address and safe vehicle access. If your suburb is not shown or you are unsure about your property, call us on (03) 5944 3310 before ordering.

Help us make delivery easy

Safe, clear access to the bottle position

Before delivery, make sure our driver can safely reach the existing LPG bottle position and exchange the cylinder without unnecessary delays.

  • Keep gates unlocked or provide clear access instructions
  • Secure dogs and other animals away from the delivery area
  • Keep the bottle position and access path clear of obstacles
  • Tell us about tight driveways, steep access or other property constraints
Existing LPG installations

Cylinder delivery and exchange — not gas installation work

General Store Gas supplies and exchanges rental cylinders at a suitable existing LPG installation where access and the bottle position are safe.

Any new LPG installation, regulator, pipework, appliance connection, repair, alteration or compliance work must be completed by an appropriately licensed gasfitter.

45kg LPG delivery questions

Frequently asked questions

How quickly do you deliver 45kg LPG?

Eligible 45kg LPG orders are delivered next business day across our local service area, subject to order timing, stock availability, safe access and service conditions. You will receive delivery updates once your order is scheduled.

How do I order a replacement 45kg gas bottle?

You can order 45kg LPG online, visit the Upper Beaconsfield General Store or call us on (03) 5944 3310.

What delivery updates will I receive?

Our delivery system provides SMS updates when the delivery is scheduled and on-the-way information with driver tracking, helping you follow the delivery without needing to call for an update.

Why do I need two 45kg LPG bottles?

A two-cylinder setup gives you a practical reserve so one cylinder can remain available while the empty cylinder is being replaced. Reordering when one bottle empties reduces the risk of running completely out of LPG.

I am new to General Store Gas. How do I get started?

Eligible customers receiving their first two General Store Gas 45kg rental cylinders at the service address can use our 45kg LPG Starter Offer, which includes first-year rental on both opening cylinders free plus the first General Store Gas delivery free.

The General Store currently supplies my Elgas bottles. Can I change to General Store Gas?

Yes. If the General Store has previously supplied your Elgas cylinders, you can be eligible for the Starter Offer when you receive your first two General Store Gas 45kg rental cylinders at the service address. Elgas cylinders remain the property of Elgas and need to be returned to or collected by the relevant supplier.

Do I own the General Store Gas cylinders?

No. General Store Gas 45kg rental cylinders remain the property of Upper Beaconsfield General Store. An annual rental applies for each cylinder held, except where a confirmed introductory offer waives that charge for the relevant period.

What should I do before the driver arrives?

Please make sure gates and access routes are clear, pets are secured away from the delivery area and the existing bottle position can be reached safely. If your property has difficult vehicle access, call us before delivery so we can discuss it.

Do you install new LPG systems or gas pipework?

No. Our service supplies and exchanges cylinders at a suitable existing LPG installation. New installations, regulators, pipework, appliance work, repairs, alterations and compliance work must be completed by an appropriately licensed gasfitter.
