The low temperatures forced Mendoza residents to start heating their homes. However, those who do not have access to the natural gas network must do so with firewood or bottles. In neighborhood shops, The 10 kilo container is around $15,000. That is why the government offers subsidized bottles.
The Government of Mendoza began with the “La Garrafa en tu Barrio” program. That is why you can get bottled gas at $4,750 in the Center, North, Uco Valley and East zones; and $6,000 in the South Zone. The population in vulnerable situations can access this service.
What is the tour of “La Garrafa in your neighborhood” like?
The Government’s operation to carry out subsidized bottle to vulnerable areas aims to alleviate the pocketbook and guarantee the right of access for those who do not have mains gas.
Starting next week, the Undersecretary of Social Development will continue with the operations to sell bottles at an affordable price. From Monday the 20th to Saturday the 25thyou will visit the departments of Malargüe, Tupungato, San Martín, Junín, Tunuyán, Maipú, Capital, Santa Rosa, San Rafael, General Alvear, Lavalle, San Carlos, Godoy Cruz, Las Heras, Guaymallén and Luján de Cuyo.
