Just had 3 filled yesterday (used for finishing maple syrup). Price per pound was $0.70. Up some from last summer.
I need more than 200 characters for my "signature." I'd love to see that changed to 250!

That's the way my neighbors do it at their LP delivery site.

I have 2 old tanks in the garage I use on my torch. Last time I brought them in to get filled, I told the guy I use em on my torch. He winked at me and  said "Sure". I guess he didn't believe me, but he did fill it. He has since sold the business to FS Gold Star, as they have taken over almost every little outfit around. I doubt I could have them filled now days.
