Gas bottles are used for so many applications and, are ideal for camping stoves too. Camping Plus are specialists in equipping people for their next adventure in the great outdoors and offer gas stoves, gas bottles, and gas bottle refills. Camping Plus really are your one stop shop for camping gear.

It is difficult to work out whether you are better off swapping your gas bottles or refilling them. We believe that refills are the way to go and here’s why.

Here are some of the reasons why you should pay Camping Plus a visit to refill your gas bottles instead of swapping them at the servo or elsewhere.

1. Save Money

Our prices are very competitive for refiling any size gas bottle refills. See our competitive pricing table below:

Compare the above refill prices to buying a new bottle, and you can see that you will save money on refilling instead of buying a new bottle.

At the time of writing, typical SWAP’n’GO gas bottle prices range from the mid $20s to the low $40s for 8.5 kg gas bottles.

It varies because SWAP’n’GO gas bottle refills are sold by independent dealers who set their own SWAP’n’GO gas bottle prices.

For this reason, it may pay to shop around or opt for a refill, as SWAP’n’GO gas prices can vary quite a bit.

2. Save Resources – Keep the same bottle

Instead of swapping your gas bottle every time that you run out of gas, hold on to the same bottle and refill it time after time, without having to swap the bottle out for a new one. This avoids wasting resources and services to refurbish or wash the old bottles unnecessarily.

3. More Convenient

Camping Plus can refill any size bottle from 1kg through to 18kg, so you don’t have to buy the designated SWAP’n’GO bottles or any particular size to refill with us. It is much easier to have your gas bottle refilled than swapped as you don’t have to go for designated sizes or outlets.

Although we refill just about any gas bottle size, they must be inspected before refilling to ensure they are safe from rust and within the 10 year test date. Additionally, safety plugs are mandatory by law. Cylinders without plugs will incur a $1 surcharge and be fitted with a new safety plug. Gas bottle weight is based off the cylinders Water Capacity. Water capacity is the amount of water the bottle can hold.

If you have run out of gas in your camping gas bottle, forklift gas bottle or stove top gas bottles, come in to Camping Plus’s Gold Coast store today and have your gas bottle refilled at a great rate. We specialise in gas refills and can answer any gas related questions or camping based questions you may have as well.
