Propane Delivery or Pickup?

If you use a gas grill it’s likely you order propane tanks. Many people run the grill off of their home gas line but others choose to buy propane tanks. Many companies allow you to purchase one tank and get it refilled at a great price. Others let you rent the tank and once it runs out you return it, just like a keg. You can either get your propane tanks delivered or pick them up yourself.

There are many pluses to having you tank delivered. If you need it the day of a party, you can set everything up knowing your propane tank is on it’s way. This gives you time to cook and set up everything before you need to use the grill. Your propane tank could even be delivered early in the day, so you can grill before everyone comes over. There are plenty of different companies that supply propane tanks for delivery. There are different sizes of tanks as well, that will give you enough propane depending how long you’ll be grilling for. Delivery is a great choice, that allows you to do other things while it’s on it’s way. Just like ordering food you don’t need to go out and get it

yourself.

Picking up the tank has it’s perks as well, that may make you think about picking up your tank. Rather than having it delivered to your home. Picking up is often fast and easy. You can ask for a tank and within a minute you should have it. You’ll pay for it and be out of the door in no time. When you are in the store you’ll get to see how much propane is in the tank. You’ll notice if the tank is dented or broken. Having a tank delivered could run the risk of getting a dented tank. You could also run the risk of not receiving a fully filled tank. Many companies won’t run this mistake but it could happen. At the store you’ll see them test it and know it’s full. You can even speak to a manager if you are unhappy. When the tank is delivered you’ll have to drop everything and run to the store or even call if there is a problem.

Both methods of getting your propane tank for your gas grill can have it’s up and downs. Which ever you think is best for you, you should do.
