They charge a delivery charge which would kill the economics of getting a larger tank. I was told that a delivery charge of $62 for a tank which I will not pay. I'm 26 miles from my LWS. And not all LWS have delivery available when you need it. Delivery is great if you have several tanks that need refill but for one or two tanks, it just does not make economic sense.
