So, he says, it's a way that he gets to be "on-call" at auto-fill

I'm in a rural area but typically the truck is out my way once a week. I
just ask them to fill it when they're in the area and they don't charge
for the on-call. If I ran out completely or something and got them out
for a special trip, then they'd hit me for the call charge. I've only
got a 100 gallon tank so it's not like i'm going to suck the truck dry..

My parents had a 500 gallon for the farmhouse. The coop had a deal
for people to contract ahead for a cheaper price. I think it included a
keep full provision without trip charges.
The irrigation wells here on propane usually have at least one 1000
gallon tank, sometimes two.
There was a time when the coops would use the propane trailers to haul
anhydrous ammonia in season and vice versa. I don't know if they still do
that.
