Just call our office at (479) 784-2000 or (800) 842-5690 and tell one of our customer service representatives that you want gas service. Our representatives will provide all the information you need.
It basically means providing natural gas to people who live in houses, mobile homes, duplexes and apartment houses for their personal use. And by “people”, we mean individuals or single families who have the accounts in their own names, for example, any family dwelling that’s individually metered. The distinction gets a little more difficult when someone operates a business out of their home, but so long as more than half of the gas service being used is for personal, and not business needs, it’s classified as Residential.
Generally, the Small Business classification applies to customers who are engaged in small business activities, or a profession, or in some other activity that doesn’t fit squarely in one of the other categories. Examples are retail stores, dormitories, hotels, religious or charitable organizations, boarding & apartment houses, motels, camps and other businesses. If a customer’s residence and business share the same gas service, but more than half of the gas is being used for personal and not business needs, the customer is classified as Residential. But the opposite also applies.
The Medium and Large Business classifications apply to customers whose annual consumption was, and whose expected annual consumption is reasonably projected to be, as follows:
Arkansas Customer:

Yes. AOG will refund the deposit with accrued interest upon termination of service or as required by the Public Service Commission. Your deposit will also be refunded when requested in writing to AOG if you have paid all bills by the due date for the past eighteen months.
Yes, we refer to it as a “connection charge.” After you apply and are approved for service, we’ll schedule a time between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, except for holidays, to come out and turn on your gas. These are our business hours, and we make every effort to start your service as soon as possible after your application has been approved.
If you discontinue your service and then ask for it to start again at the same location within twelve months, you pay a “continuous service charge” which is calculated by multiplying the monthly charge by the months your service has been disconnected.
If your service is discontinued for non-payment, you will pay a “reconnection charge” which is approved by the Public Service Commission.
