Yes, I know, I know. It does not make much difference in the grand scheme of things, but I do bend over to pick up a penny from the sidewalk! Really! (And those superglued down, I would try to pry off.)

Tractor Supply in West Leb is at $2.79/ gallon. Raz

what gives that's what I pay at the tractor supply here. In the grand scheme of things its not worth a long trip out of your way. If I need it I get it!

Bob's Service Station in White River Junction was (is) $8.75 for a refill. I miss that and am looking for something close to it, of course.

I took a months trip in Feb left with one tank it was almost full when we got back after running a propane heater at night and cooking.


Saying that I don't know if its worth the bother to get it filled I do it but such a long use per tank and having to haul it to the farm supply store!!


Just my 2c

...the only time I hit the exchange places is when the date has expired on the tank...I have never seen a place turn down an exchange and I have exchanged some skechy looking tanks...exchange tanks are generally filled to 3.5 to 4 gals to allow for expansion while sitting in the sun (I once drove for a propane wholesaler)...they are also generally filled by a minimally paid employee, who is standing in the middle of dozens or hundreds of tanks. Do you think he actually takes time to do a proper refill???
Here, locally, I get mine refilled at the ACE hardware down the road from me. I filled 4 tanks yesterday for 40 bucks(1 was still half full)...I think the gas was around 2.49/gal..........

p.s. I have seen some debate about whether or not the recert date on tanks had been lowered to 10 yrs from 12 yrs...I asked the refill person about that and she told me, it had been dropped to 10 yrs...then a month later they got a letter that said "never mind" and the date has staid at 12 yrs...just an FYI.............mj
