This video provides valuable instructions for those in Canada on how to exchange a propane tank at Canadian Tire locations. Not all Canadian Tire locations offer this service, but generally, if you see tanks stored in a metal cage outside of the store, it's a strong indicator they participate in the program. The process involves bringing in your old tank (doesn't matter if it's expired), paying at the cash register (around $30), then bringing your receipt to the garage area where you get your new tank. This new tank is typically brand new, manufactured in the same year, and of good quality.
It's notable that these tanks are made in China and despite this, the quality, particularly the structural welds and metal valve, seem excellent. The effectiveness of the process and fairness of the price ('like a refill') are applauded. An essential tip given is to bring your car near the garage area to avoid carrying the heavy tank across the parking area. As a cautionary note, potential users are advised to call their local Canadian Tire in advance to ensure they have this exchange program. Similar services might also be available at some Petro Canada gas stations.
