LPG & gas cylinders in Upington: local notes
Homes in Upington, Paballelo and Louisvale mostly exchange 9 kg cylinders, and larger houses add 48 kg pairs for a geyser. Grape farms on Kanoneiland and towards Kakamas and Groblershoop order 48 kg cylinders for staff kitchens on delivery rounds, and some look at a bulk tank. Campers and 4x4 travellers heading into the Kalahari fill 3 kg and 5 kg cylinders in town, since refill points thin out further north.
Upington: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Upington lies on the Orange River at the edge of the Kalahari, one of the hottest towns in the country in summer and far from the main gas depots. The river is lined with vineyards, raisin and table grape farms from Kanoneiland to Kakamas and Keimoes, and farmhouses and staff housing use gas for cooking and hot water. Guest houses and river lodges serve travellers heading to the Kalahari parks. LPG reaches Upington by long road haul to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores, and farms along the river depend on delivery rounds. The heat is the main caution: keep cylinders shaded and upright, never in a closed vehicle, and check hoses that the sun has dried out.
The requests we see from Upington usually come from:
- Farms and smallholdings: bulk or 48 kg supply for brooders, crop drying, dairies and the farmhouse
- Homeowners: a 9 kg for the stove, or 48 kg cylinders outside for a gas geyser, hob and heaters
- Guest houses, lodges and venues: gas for kitchens, geysers and patio heaters, delivered on a round to remote sites

Common here: 48 kg cylinders for river farms and lodges, 9 kg exchanges for homes. Ask each dealer or installer about this: ask when the next round reaches your farm and keep a spare full cylinder. Where they work from: dealers in the Upington town centre and industrial area, and in Keimoes and Kakamas.
LPG Gas Supply usually suits stoves, geysers, heaters, kitchens and farms, and works like this: empty swapped for full, or refilled by weight. For farms and smallholdings, the biggest group here, that usually means poultry brooders, crop drying and the farmhouse kitchen on a regular supply. On the weather side: extreme summer heat and cold desert winter nights; shade every cylinder.
