Decided I need a new/second tank - standard five gallon one each.

Any comments, recommendations on where is a good source. There is
the Blue Rhino stand at Safeway, but what is consensus?

* Craigslist , local want ads , or try the local propane dealer . If
you do buy from one of those refill swap outfits , be sure it's one that
other suppliers can refill . Some of those places use a proprietary
valve that only they can fill - or so I've heard/been told . What I did
was find old non-OPD tanks for nothing or next to it and swap them in
for a newer one . Then refill at the local propane dealer .


I've been refilling at various propane dealers.

How many would you like, Iwould like to clean out the back shed, come
pick up a half dozen for free.


I'm in the upper left corner of the country, not far from the
Canadian border.
Road trips ain't what they used to be.
