I have a space heater that uses a short LPG canister that looks like the propane can you buy for a gas grill in the US. I also have a taller canister outside my window for cooking.

What does it cost to replace them? I'm assuming there is a deposit.

If I'm not out of gas do I get a new one and then later have them pick up the empty? What's the usual procedure?

An LPG guy will come to your house and fill them both for you if you call them. No deposit. I bought a tall LPG can a few years ago for 60,000 won it cost another 60,000won to fill it.

So you just keep the same can and they refill it. Are they open on Saturdays? -Jeff

Do I have to meet him there or can I just leave the can outside my door and pay him via the internet? -Jeff

I just put my empty can on my little folding dolly and walked downtown. I asked the pharmacist which way and then a guy at the gas station. Eventually I found my way to the can storage and found the office. I said LPG, waved him outside and pointed at my can. He went and got a new one for me and we traded. I handed him a piece of paper to write the price on and it was 18000 won.
