Step-by-step propane refill process
-
1
Drive to the station

2
Bring your propane tank
Bring your empty or partially full tank. We accept 20 lb, 30 lb, 40 lb BBQ tanks, RV cylinders, built-in ASME motorhome tanks, patio heater cylinders, food truck tanks, and forklift cylinders. The tank must have a current OPD valve (standard on all tanks manufactured after April 2002).
-
3
Safety inspection
Our trained staff visually inspect the tank for rust, dents, and valve damage, and check the recertification date stamped on the tank collar. DOT cylinders need recertification 10–12 years after manufacture date, then every 5–7 years. If your tank fails inspection, we offer recertification or replacement.
-
4
We refill the tank
We connect your tank to the pump and fill to the legal maximum — typically 80% of total tank capacity to allow for thermal expansion. For built-in RV ASME tanks, we fill in place. The fill itself takes 2–10 minutes depending on tank size.
-
5
Pay by weight delivered
We weigh the tank before and after filling and bill you for the actual propane delivered. This is typically cheaper than a tank exchange — exchange cages (like Blue Rhino and AmeriGas) charge a fixed price for a partial fill of about 15 lb of 20 lb capacity. See our refill vs. exchange comparison.

6
Drive away with your tank
You leave with the same tank you brought in, now filled to capacity. Total time at the station: typically 5–15 minutes depending on the line.
