LPG Gas by tanker - any comparison advice?

Has anyone any advice about comparing the price of LPG gas that's delivered by tanker? Pretty much all the discussion I see is for mains gas but we're rural and get our gas supplied by BP who come round to top up our tank.

They've just called and offered a 2 year contract with the 1st 6 months fixed. Normal price is 58p per litre, they're discounting to 52p per litre.

Appreciate any thoughts.

  • there is a separate LPG and oil thread under ultilities and some stickies there. It does depend on area to area and I think there are some comparison sites (although I remmeber reading that some were owned by the suppliers so be careful).

    My advice is to be careful typing yourself into a contract especially where part of the price is not fixed. We live in Worcestershire and have been with Countrywide for years. However, often their price is double that of Calor. We get the equivalent price and then threaten to leave at which point they match Calor's. I'm also thinking of filling our tank now as it could be cheaper than in winter
