Propane Capacity Check

Check whether the propane the driver is carrying fits in the available room across your tanks.

Tank details

gal
The app compares the truck load with the combined room across the tanks.

Help improve tank projections

Optionally share readings taken right after a delivery. Submissions help us study whether pipeline order affects the tank split. They do not change your projection automatically.

Help improve the app

Optionally share basic counts of app opens and feature use. No tank readings, site details, account, or device identifier are included. Netlify may receive technical request data, such as an IP address.

Sharing starts only after you switch this on. Turn it off at any time.

Truck GVW estimate

Estimate gross vehicle weight from the truck weight without its propane load and the gallons being carried.

lb
lb
Enter truck weight and driver load
Propane weight is estimated at 4.24 lb per gallon.
Estimate uses 4.24 lb per U.S. gallon at 60°F. Actual weight varies with temperature. Verify with a scale and follow vehicle and axle ratings; this is not a weight-compliance determination.

Planning limit

Compare available room against this percentage of tank water capacity.

Field reference

Water capacity (WC)
Use the tank’s marked or manufacturer-listed water capacity in gallons. This is the tank’s water volume, not its propane fill amount.

Current gauge
Enter the tank’s liquid-level gauge reading as a percentage from 0 to 100.

Approx. per-tank ending level
This uses a room-based split of the load. The actual amount delivered to each tank is unknown, so a closer per-tank projection needs a measured or known split. Enter today’s gauge readings; another driver may have serviced the site. Monitor each gauge while unloading.

Planning estimate
Estimated current gallons = WC × gauge %. Room to limit = WC × (planning limit − gauge %) ÷ 100. The app adds each tank’s nonnegative room and compares that total with the truck load.

Share delivery observations

Enter each tank’s gauge reading taken immediately after this delivery. The current readings in the calculator are used as the starting gauges.

Only generic tank numbers, water capacities, before-and-after gauges, and the first tank’s position are submitted. Tank labels, customer or site names, addresses, access codes, and email are not included. Netlify may process technical information such as your IP address to operate its form service. These observations will not change your calculations automatically. Privacy policy
