I read on here the other day someone saying that a lot of the Walgreens/CVS etc. places don't always give you a full tank, and I think they recommended hardware stores for propane refills. So, where do you get your propane at? I'm in Walker, so Walker / Denham Springs recommendations would be best.

I always get mine refilled. I have three that I rotate so I always have at least one completely full.

For thibodaux I get it refilled at Gus's on canal. Charge you by the gallon too. None of that flat price shite.

If you're swapping out tanks, you're throwing away money. Refilling is the only option I consider.

I refill at a u-haul place...though mainly because it is closer than any of the swap-out places. Honestly, I am not gonna get all stressed out and drive all over town over $3 worth of propane...

I went and bought my own tank at lowes. I get it refilled/ topped off at the hardware store. At least I know I'm not getting a fricked up tank that's gonna leak or something.

Zachary Tractor aupply is the cheapest.

Use the swap out service to tuen in terrible tanks for a new replacement.


I pull the sticker and paint a two inch stripe around the tank so I know it's mine.

I only swap if my tank is out of date.
