We’d Like to Welcome You to Dead River Company

For over 20 years, Dorr Oil and Propane has proudly served the heating needs of Manchester Center, VT and the surrounding area. After thoughtfully considering who should continue to care for their customers, employees, and communities served, in July of 2023, the owners of Dorr Oil and Propane transferred ownership to Dead River Company.

Knowing Dead River Company’s reputation for prompt, reliable, personalized service, the team at Dorr Oil and Propane was excited to join the Dead River Company team. Since doing so, the team has been warmly welcomed and feels right at home as valued members of the Dead River Company family.
