Safefill - Refillable Gas Cylinders

I agree ET but what I was trying to say was that they can no longer use the excuse of ‘it’s illegal’. If they want to lose business that’s their perogative . I still think it’s a leftover from the ‘old days’ Education has proved to be successful- caravanners going out there and talking to fill points. We have all been over these points time and time again but it bears repeating- the thought of going back to the rental of 6kg cylinders from Calor and Co makes my blood run cold!! 

I’m not sure that losing business will worry garages, Merve. Our MH gas tank was topped up from about half full last week and it cost £4. Would a busy garage want LVs clogging up the forecourt for such rich rewards?😄

so, in effect, you have a fixed gaslow type system, like many motorhomers....

when we (MHers) fill, we take the van with us or call in 'on the way' as fixed fill points don't seem to be 'outlawed' in the same way that removable refillables are....

Kjelll has a Gaslow in his caravan.....fixed fill point, no problem.

...but as Ocsid says, pulling a large car/caravan unit into a garage without being confident of getting gas is a bit hit and miss....

perhaps adding a fixed filler point might alleviate some of the uncertainty and allow fills at most LPG stations, however, it removes the portability aspect which makes Safefill attractive to caravanners...

something to weigh up...

I don't clog up the station with an LV, just take bottle out and put it in the car drive to the garage, fill up.

When with my brother he fills the MH and the Gaslow system at the same time so suddenly the few pounds becomes £70 or £80, not sure a garage would turn that away.  

If there's a will there's a way

but as Ocsid says, pulling a large car/caravan unit into a garage without being confident of getting gas is a bit hit and miss....

So what do they do if on a journey with the van they just want petrol or diesel

I just don't get it why any thread concerning safefill suddenly becomes full of negatives.  We have safefill and have never ever had a problem

from the MyLPG App.....3 stations nr Dunstable verified in the past three months (the green markers) although this may not be for Safefill (more likely, Gaslow).

however, a call to these might yeild one winner, good luck.

Which 4 stations?

 

Edit: Ohh those 4 stations 

sorry, forgot the photo.....and couldn't count, lol.....

That’s a way of looking at it Tinny I suppose and it has its merits but let’s not dwell on the customer who doesn’t want much gas. That can happen in any sphere  I filled my 10kg cylinder the other day by taking it along to a garage in Barmouth and paid £15.22. LPG at 79.9ppl. Now, a few doing that makes it worth it.
