Is LPG die’ ing?

I only got my van a few months ago and paid £500 to have the Gaslow system thrown in before delivery. 2 places near me (30 and 60min round trip)

Be a pain to have to switch back again if it becomes super inconvenient

It would appear to be dying out down south. We around here have 50% more stations now than a few years ago. That’s 3 now up from 2. They’re all within 2 miles of my house.

We buy ours from our local bottled gas company, Harris Gas in Northwich, Bolton Bottled Gas, you guessed it Bolton, FloGas in Burnley when we stayed there. All have pumps.

Just filled up with LPG here, 66.9p very easy access with plenty of room not too bad a price either for a motorway
Good price, I paid 75 ppl today in Kidsgrove, up from 69 ppl last summer.
A few places near me have had the LPG pumps removed recently so just glad to get some.

Is LPG die’ ing?
I don't think it'd dying yet, but definately getting harder to source in UK, plenty of sellers on the Continent, or there were two years ago !
My advice would be use the filllpg app to find retailers and fill up / top up on your travels wherever you go

Just ordering an 11kg Gaslow system for out MH but, am keeping one of our 6kg Calor bottles on the other side as reserve as opposed to both being Gaslow to give us greater flexibility should we encounter any supply issues.

What makes you say that?
Can't get much furth south than down here, another 200 yds and I'll be in the channel, no problems down here.

I’ll tell you what makes me say that. The only people seeming to have trouble finding LPG pumps are all down South. Just look back at the threads complaining about lack of LPG. Now either the problems are down South or Southerners complain more. Which is it.

A couple of stations up here (Scotland) have had no LPG for the last few months but are once again listed in FILL LPG app as having lpg.

Only pump left in Norwich 79.9p, I pay it, as it’s cheaper than the diesel to go further.
Where in Norwich? I used to go over to Roughton but they've closed their pumps and Shell at Hethersett is no more?

I'm always making note of LPG refill points. They certainly seem thicker on the ground in the UK industrial belt than they do down here in the south. They do exist but there are less of them.

not long enough
Prices have now caught up, paid 99p yesterday, but good access if your filler is on your near side

Very narrow on left side of pump and coned off to stop entry, that’s northbound , southbound better access for offside fillers but you can get both sides
