Do I have to exchange the same brand?

No. Any standard 20-lb steel grill cylinder works — even one you bought somewhere else. As long as it's in safe condition we'll take it.

Do I have to be home for the swap?

No. Leave the empty where the driver can reach it and we'll swap it while you're at work or out running errands. Just tell us where it is in your order.

What if my tank is expired?

Steel cylinders are good for 12 years from the date stamp. Leave an expired tank out with your empty and we'll recycle it safely — you only pay the standard swap fee.

How full are exchange tanks?

Every Levco cylinder is filled to a safe fill point (about 80% by volume per DOT) and pressure-checked before it leaves our yard.

Can I get a tank refilled instead of swapped?

Yes — we do true refills, not just swaps. Call us and we'll explain the difference and which one fits how you're using the tank.

QUICK ANSWER

We swap 20 lb grill cylinders at your home: order online or call, leave the empty outside, and our driver trades it for a full, inspected one — or drops off extras if you need them. No trip to the store and no hauling. If you're heating the house or running a pool heater or standby generator, a delivered propane tank makes more sense than swapping cylinders.

Key takeaways

Full, inspected 20 lb cylinders left at your driveway
Leave the empty out — the driver takes it with them
Order one tank or several before a cookout
For whole-home heat, hot water or generators, ask about a delivered tank

More about this service

A local, family-run propane exchange you can count on

Levco has been serving Connecticut families since 1980. Our propane exchange delivery program is designed for homeowners who want a safe, simple way to keep grills, patio heaters, generators, and RV appliances ready to go. If you live in Fairfield County, New Haven County, or the surrounding towns, we’ll drop off and pick up standard 20‑pound grill tanks right on your driveway — no heavy lifting, no trip to the store.

What makes us different

Family‑owned with deep local roots and a reputation for reliability.
Drivers trained to handle deliveries and exchanges safely and respectfully on your property.
Programs tailored to Levco fuel customers — and flexible options for everyone else.
A commitment to giving back: donations to local nonprofits for new tanks and exchanges.

How the propane exchange delivery works

Order from home

Send the order form on this page or give us a call — there’s nothing to sign up for.
When a tank runs low, place an order through the online form or scan the QR code on your tank to request an exchange.

Orders placed by 4 p.m. are typically eligible for next‑day delivery.

Delivery and exchange process

We deliver one or more 20‑pound tanks and leave them on your driveway near your home for easy access.
When you request an exchange, we pick up the empty tank at the same time we drop off the full one.
You don’t need to be home for the swap — leave the empty where the driver can reach it and tell us where it is when you order.
Drivers will inspect tanks for safety and will not exchange tanks that are damaged or compromised.

Recycling and responsible handling

We’ll recycle old tanks at no extra charge.
Exchanged tanks are checked and maintained to help ensure safe, leak‑free service.
If you have older, out‑of‑service tanks on your property, our drivers can remove and recycle them when delivering an exchange.

Pricing, new tanks, and community support

Transparent pricing

Tank exchange: $24.99 for active Levco fuel customers; $34.99 for others.
New tank purchase: $54.99 plus the applicable exchange fee.

We keep pricing straightforward so you know what to expect when the delivery arrives.

Giveback program

For every new tank ordered, Levco donates $5 to a local nonprofit that supports children in need.
For every tank exchange, we donate $1.
We also offer a referral credit program for customers who spread the word locally, helping neighbors find reliable service while rewarding both parties.

Why choose exchange delivery over refilling

Propane exchange is a popular option because it saves time and simplifies upkeep. Key benefits include:

Speed:Swapping an empty tank for a full one takes minutes — no waiting for a refill.
Convenience:Schedule deliveries from home; no trips to a filling station or hardware store.
Safety checks:Exchanged tanks are routinely inspected so damaged cylinders aren’t put back into circulation.
Budget predictability:Fixed exchange prices make it easier to plan for seasonal grilling or emergency backup fuel.
Accessibility:If mobility or time is a concern, home delivery removes barriers to keeping equipment running.
Clean handling:Drivers pick up empties and recycle unwanted old tanks responsibly.

These advantages make exchange delivery especially useful for casual grillers, busy families, and anyone who values convenience and safety.

What equipment uses 20‑lb propane tanks

Our exchange service supports a wide range of common household and outdoor equipment:

Gas grills and BBQs
Portable generators(for short‑term backup power)
Patio heaters and outdoor fire pits
Portable space heatersfor workshops or outdoor spaces
RV and camper appliances(stoves, refrigerators, water heaters)
Catering and concession equipmentfor mobile cooking

If you’re unsure whether the 20‑pound tank fits a specific appliance, our team can help confirm compatibility and advise on safe use.

Practical tips and expectations

Place your empty tank in an accessible spot on the driveway to speed up exchange service.
If you expect to need multiple tanks for events or extended use, order in advance to secure next‑day delivery.

Keep appliances and connections clean and free of debris; routine maintenance extends equipment life and reduces service calls.
If you have any older cylinders or suspect a tank is damaged, flag it during ordering so our driver can properly handle and recycle it.

Why Levco? We combine decades of local experience with friendly, neighborhood service and a focus on safety and community support. If you live in Fairfield or New Haven County and want a no‑hassle way to keep your propane supplies topped up, our exchange delivery makes outdoor living easier and more reliable.
