and do most refill their own or go to one of these swap your tank bins

I used to take my tank to the local construction equipment rental
place for refill, but when we replaced our grill /sans/ tank, I opted
to go the swap-it-at-the-store route for convenience's sake. It was
cheaper at the outset than buying a cylinder to have filled.

What makes it really convenient at this point is that places like Home
Depot are doing the do-it-yourself swap-out where you use a computer
terminal to make your swap and the appropriate cage door opens for you
to take out a fresh cylinder and put in the empty - 24 hours a day. So
when I run out at 10:00 at night in the middle of playing cards, I can
get a fresh tank without having to deal with the surly gas station
attendant down the street.
