Some people appreciate the swap-and-go convenience of a cylinder exchange. But savvy customers love the savings they get by refilling their propane grill tanks. Sure, it’s tempting to grab a quick replacement at a nearby exchange cage and be on your way. It’s fast, convenient, and easy to find. But if you’re looking to get the most value for your money, refilling your propane cylinder is often the smarter choice—and it’s just as easy as exchanging tanks.
When you own your propane grill tank and get it refilled, you can save money in a few ways. First, you’ll save on the price of the propane. The difference can be up to $1.75 per gallon!
That’s because when you refill your tank, you are just paying for propane. When you use an exchange cage, you’re covering the overhead costs of handling, transportation, and the maintaining and restocking the exchange program. Plus the cost of propane.
You also save because when you choose to refill your propane tank, you’re only buying the propane you need to fill the rest of your cylinder. Because think about it: When you know your propane cylinder is starting to run low, your instinct is to exchange for a full tank before you run out.
But with propane grill tank exchanges, you don’t get credit for the propane left in the tank you drop off. So unless you run them until they’re completely empty, you could be wasting half a tank or more over the span of a few tanks. Instead, keep a spare on hand so you always have a full tank. It’s your own personal cylinder exchange.
