We're just getting our van ready for it's first trip next week and I've got to get a 907 gas bottle. Roughly how much is a bottle and refill?
 
New bottle can be £50-£80! Refills about £20-£30...

I bought ours from Chorley Gas, great service (next day) and competitively priced - £40 complete / £25 refill. A bottle could last a year depending on use...

I think that's a refill?
Yes you’re right: I misread the op. You can buy them there although they are not on the website for about £95 full. Better off getting one on gumtree or the tip if they’ll give them away.
 
Towsure are cheapest . About £14 for an empty 907 cylinder.
 
I found the tips in our area will not part with them elf and safety... picked an empty up of e bay £5 local to us refill £34 pound Go outdoors.
 
do go outdoors price match chorley gas?
 
£35 in GoOutdoors with membership card.
Interestingly Go outdoors Southampton has no 907 refills and are not expecting any for 2 to 3 weeks. We called in yesterday on way back from New Forest after a no cup of tea day in the van when the gas ran out
 
Although Chorley quote free local same day delivery, they do send full cylinders nationwide - I got mine within 48hrs in Scotland for not much ££s...

The marinas and most chandlers stock 907s as well if you are near the coast/canals.

Got a local supplier helpful and only £2 more. Just posted to share stock info

Go Outdoors in Newcastle say they will only match ChorleyGas on a new bottle, not on a refill. However, with discount card it was £27 yesterday for a 904 refill compared to I think £25 at Chorley. Note that’s the 904, not 907.

When we bought or van 4 or so years ago i had a look around and went on gumtree and found a guy that was selling 2 bottles for £20. When I went to pick them up one of them was over half full so that was a result. In the uk you will probably pay around £25 -£30 fo a refill. In Spain we get a refill for €16 -€18 ..... A refill lasted us 3 years as we are either on a site with hookup or we use a couple of £10 gas cookers which we use outside. 8 throw away cylinders last us 3 weeks in France and Spain. That’s £8.......We hardly ever cook in the van because of the mess it causes and the smell.....But Everyone is different......

We in the process too, just bought new bottle plus gaz was £40 and refills after that £25
 
Might be a silly question: can I bring a bottle to be refilled even if it's not empty?

The problem is that I can't refill a Campingaz bottle in Slovenia, so I would do it abroad.

You can exchange a half full bottle and lose the gas but I'm sure they won't re-fill at location.
The normal process is to exchange the bottle for a new full one. Your old (half full) bottle will go into an (empties) cage where they are collected, returned to a filling centre, given an empty,, refurbish and re-fill.

Your only options are to exchange and lose the remaining gas, empty it and exchange, buy a second bottle to 'keep you going' or find someone to decant & re-fill your bottle locally (which is not recommended).
 
Thanks for the answer. I'm willing to lose some of the gas, (when I know it's low) rather than to exchange for a new bottle. And I really don't want to drive around with a spare bottle.
 
Once tried to exchange (in UK) a bottle with only a small amount of gas still remaining, probably about 5-10mins of gas. The gas supplier point blank refused to accept it as it wasn't empty. I went away and opened the valve to let it vent in an open safe place then took it back for exchange.

If you order a refill to be delivered from Chorley Gas, do you have to be in to hand them your empty bottle?

That I don't know. They were the cheapest / best deal when I bought, they couriered up the new bottle. You should give them a call, very helpful with me. The re-fills may be only for local (Preston) area?
I will probably just exchange mine locally for a replacement when it empties, I'm sure it would be less than the re-fill plus carriage cost from Chorley...
