I never exchange. When you do you almost always only get 15 lbs. in a 20 lb tank. The only time I do is when the tank is out of date and I want a newer tank. Whether it's by the lb or gallon makes no difference just price accordingly. If you exchange at $19 you are really paying $25 equivilent to filling the tank. I pay $2.85/gal in GA to have it filled vs $1.40 for bulk at my s&b in NY. I also have a 100# tank at my winter base and that costs $60 to fill or about $2.50 per gal.
20# tank = 4.7 gal
30# tank = 7.1 gal
