New LPG Tank Installation

[Geek]

It may not be a case of being ripped off, it comes down to volume of sales and cost of bulk buying. Charlie loses money on lpg sales at Autogas2000 and that was £1 per litre, (not been for a while so may have changed). The cost of buying it is much higher than it would be around Birmingham/Wolverhampton where there are a lot more people using log, especially if there are taxi's.

That's true, but as the number of forecourt LPG pumps falls (obviously the more expensive ones are the ones closing) the sales per station may rise to balance out.

Add the time of someone stopping what they are working on to go out and top up customer tanks (often just a few litres as folks top up while passing) and you are on a loss. Its only because it done as a customer service he sells lpg I reckon.

Perhaps it is because I tend to buy at the cheaper places, but I have only once been to one where they fill it for you. Self service at all the others.
