These guys are very reasonable and convenient as hell. Just put the old bottle
on the front porch and they drop off the new.

For first timers, you can't beat the price.

But, you have to live where they're availabe.

They don't have prices. I can buy 33# for $18 and change..... are
they close?


For first timers, I got a full, new tank, 17lbs, for $10. But, I think they've
stopped that. Now it'll run me about $22 for a 17lb tank, but they drop it on my
front porch or back deck. I could get it somewhat cheaper, but I'd have to drive
somewhere to get it.


That is really not bad. The campground here charges $18 and the other
place is about the same but they do fill the tank.


I get the tanks on the travel trailer topped off when necessary at campgrounds.
Not all campgrounds have the capability, but in the course of the year at least
two or three will be able to fill them.
