Default Delivered propane prices?

If you have propane delivered to your house to fill a large
residential
tank, what are you paying per gallon in your part of the country?

We're paying $2.79 a gallon, which is about average for delivered
propane in this market.

------------------------------------------

Don't know if it's considered "large" but we have a 100 gallon tank
that fuels a heater in the garage.
Just had 46.5 gallons delivered and the bill was about $175 which
works out to about $3.68 per gallon (after the small delivery fee).

So, I'd say you are getting a great price.

According to this US government site, wholesale prices are around
$1/gallon + tax:

Residential costs average 2x wholesale.
