I was quoted $3.62 gal delivered and $2.69 dockside. I'm in a ten mile radius of the fuel dock and was wondering if you all have to pay almost a buck a gallon for delivery? I have a 100 gallon tank. I'm in E. WA. I can pack fuel to my house in 100 pound (25 gallon) tanks if I have to. I've been told "Oh Yeah the competition is the Export business and fuel to the Farmers Corn Drying". The homeowner is taking it in the shorts so that the fuel can be exported out of the country? bjr23
 
Most propane companies have a sliding price scale depending on how much you buy per month. In my area it ranges from a little over $2.50 if you're heating your house to over $4.50 if it's only for cooking.
