How propane exchange works
- Bring your empty 20 lb tank (the standard grill size).
- Pay inside and tell the cashier you're exchanging or buying a tank.
- A staff member unlocks the cage, takes your empty and hands you a full one.
Exchange vs buying a new tank
An exchange costs less than buying a new tank because you're paying only for the propane. If you don't have a tank to trade, you can usually buy one with propane included for a higher price. Exchange tanks are often filled to about 15 lb rather than 20 lb, which is standard across exchange brands.
Safety tips
- Transport tanks upright and secured, with a window open.
- Don't leave a tank in a hot car.
- Check the valve with soapy water for leaks after connecting it to your grill.
