17.5kg Gas bottle refills - Recommendations

Katrina from Kilbirnie

Hey Neighbours,

I'm looking for a solution / recommendations in terms of the following dilemma ..

The gas supply to a tenanted property I currently manage is via 2x 17.5kg refillable bottles which in the past have been refilled from the self service gas refill station in Newtown however unfortunately this has now closed down with the only alternative in Petone.
Unfortunately, this poses an issue given that the tenants do not have a vehicle however another issue is, is that having contacted many gas companies it seems no one will deliver either.
A further issue is that gas companies will not refill 17.5kgs and if we were to move to the next size bottle 45kg, they still wont deliver due to stairs to the property falling under a safety hazard.

I'm not sure where to from here in terms of finding a solution, therefore if any one has any helpful recommendations / ideas please do share.

Cheers,
Katrina

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
