I agree that going to a refiller is typically a little cheaper especially if you are refilling an LPG tank with some remaining LPG. Your 1.25 factor may be in the right range but it will vary with the LPG market. The 15/20 factor assumes that the tank can be filled completely and this is not correct. Consequently, the claim that it is 1.66 times as expensive to replace than to refill. is wrong. |

LP tanks

If you just need the tanked filled ACE is the place. However the tank exchanges are very convenient. |

additional thought
After Ace tells you it needs to be inspected exchange it instead and start the process again. Last I looked it was less expensive for the loss of 5 pounds of propane in the exchange than to get the tank inspected and recertified

Another option is to install a natural gas line to your grill and convert the grill from LP to NG.
I think this was about a $250 add on for a new home. |

Not quite on subject, but can not believe that LP gas price has not changed in a long time. Even if the LP gas cost is the same. other costs of the supplier/retailer have gone up.
Best exchange price around here is Sams. U Haul and other companies who re fill the tanks are less but not as convenient. |

Bet that they want to but landlord may not allow. Most Ace stores are in free standing buildings |

Great option ................................. if your property has gas service and is a new home being built. Most do not and are not.

BJs will fill it. When we bought in the Villages it was the first time I used exchange tanks. Felt it was easier than finding a place to refill rapt the time. We have 3 tanks and either go to Lowes or Walgreens to exchange them.

Today, I filled my completely empty tank at Ace in Wildwood. It took 4.5 gal @ $4.39 per gal for $19.76. I have two tanks since I ran out during a long cook. I also use Ace to fill the propane tank on my RV.
