Wanted: Empty Calor gas cylinder or full (ish) 3.9Kg propane

[maej]

Wanted: Empty calor gas cylinder, any colour, any size (except 6 KG or 7 KG, can't swap those for what I want).

Alternatively a part full or full 3.9Kg Calor propane (red) cylinder would be perfect.

I'm switching to propane for winter and can just about fit a 3.9Kg Calor propane cylinder in my gas locker if I take one of the campingaz bottles out. New cylinders from Calor suppliers are so expensive, so I thought I'd ask in case anyone has a spare empty cylinder I could buy and exchange for cheaper than a new one.

Hi Mike
When I switched from camping to calor I picked up 2 calor cylinders from my local tip for £5. - alot cheaper than buying them for the first time.

Good idea, I hadn't thought of that, I'll pop down and ask them tomorrow morning.

Thanks Neil

I tried at the tip, got the 'elf 'n' safety talk "Not allowed to touch 'em in case they go off". So still looking.

Was a good idea though.

Hi Mike,
I have a spare Calor butane that you could swap for a propane, the cheapest place in Southampton is Go-Outdoors btw...

I've tried 3 tips and they all seam to have CCTV now so the blokes can't sell anything.
Major step backwards for recycling!
