RC2018 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 First time spending the winter in Florida. What do others do when they run out of propane? How do I get my propane tank filled when needed? I will be in Zephyrhills Fl. Any help will be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr4Film Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Sometimes they will deliver right to your site depending on the RV Resort policy. Otherwise, you could install an adapter to your propane line which will allow you to use a smaller portable tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck B 2004 Windsor Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Most propane dealers will deliver propane to your coach for a fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Dog Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Never had a problem getting it delivered, just like filling a tank at a home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Babb Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I had a propane dealer make me a hose with the proper fittings to connect a small tank to the RV filler connector. If your usage is too fast for the small tank to afford, causing it to freeze, you can usually slowly tip the small tank over so it will deliver liquid propane to the RV tank.

FishAR Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) Went down with a full tank last winter. Cooked inside and out with it all winter, almost 6 months, came back with 3/4 tank. If I had needed any they deliver to the campground on certain days. Edited to add: Fill it up before you go. The delivered propane at our place is pretty expensive.

tmw188 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) Depending on your tank size and if you don’t use it frequently for heating your coach I agree with FishAR. Most all RV Parks realize their guests will need LP and where we stay post certain days of the week or month when the LP truck will be in the Park and you can signup for a delivery on that day. It is VERY Expensive, between $5-$6 a gallon Edited November 18, 2022 by tmw188 phrasing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC2018 Posted November 18, 2022 Author Share Posted November 18, 2022 I really don't know how long i can go on a full tank. My expected use is cooking only unless it gets cold and I need my furnace. I have an onboard 38 gal tank. Thanks for all the great advise. I will make sure I am full before parking on site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Luedtke Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Randy, Lived in Zhills for 7 years, call Bahrs, pretty sure they can supply whatever you will need. Also thinking of returning to Zhills for winters ('24-'25), which park are you staying at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC2018 Posted November 22, 2022 Author Share Posted November 22, 2022 I am at Happy Days RV Park. It is right beside Bahrs Propane. The park told me Bahrs delivers on Wednesday's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
