Spreading the Joys of Homebrewing Throughout Philadelphia and Its Suburbs

Local propane suppliers

Suburban Propane sent me a nice letter informing me that they'll jack up the equipment rental fee for the big'ol tank sitting in my back yard (due to increased steel, insurance, and maintenance costs, no less!)

Anyone have a suggestion for a local supplier? While I'm at it switching from Suckurban, I wouldn't mind getting a line pulled to my garage area so that I don't have to buy propane tanks every time I brew...

Thx,

They basically said I was too small of a customer. I have Oil heat and switched to Harris last year. For our fireplace, we have the huge propane tank. We called Harris to switch to their propane and they were out the next day and we had a new tank by the end of the week. I don't have much to compare them with, but they are great to deal with.
