Sandton notes on lpg & gas cylinders
Restaurants along Rivonia Road, in Sandton Central and around Nelson Mandela Square often run banks of 48 kg cylinders in a cage, or a bulk tank where space allows. Houses in Hurlingham and Morningside on gas geysers and hobs usually use a delivery service with two 48 kg cylinders on a changeover valve. In Alexandra and Marlboro local dealers sell 9 kg exchanges, and refill stations nearby fill 3 kg and 5 kg cylinders.
Gas in Sandton
Sandton runs on a mix of very different gas users. Hotels and large restaurants around Sandton Central and Rivonia Road often have bulk tanks filled by tanker, while houses in Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside want gas hobs, built in braais, patio heaters and flued gas fireplaces as part of a renovation. In Alexandra, across the M1, most households buy a 9 kg exchange from a local dealer for cooking and heating. Cylinders come in by road from depots on the East Rand and in the south. Office towers seldom allow cylinders inside, and cluster homes in Sunninghill and Paulshof have rules on where cylinders stand.
The requests we see from Sandton usually come from:
- Homeowners: 48 kg cylinders for the geyser and stove swapped at the door without lifting
- Restaurants, takeaways and bakeries: restaurants and takeaways on a weekly round so the kitchen never runs dry
- Guest houses, lodges and venues: lodges and venues outside town supplied on set delivery days
