My Daftest Question To Date. Lpg

I'm watching Rip Off Britain.

People are complaining about the cost of the LPG that is delivered to their tanks.

I have friends who have had their domestic oil stolen from their tank (twice).

Can LPG be stolen from domestic tanks?

Not without a massive fit of the vapours.

It would be hard to steal gas from a dedicated tank, such as one of these:

(It would be the equivalent of trying to steal natural gas by tapping into supply in the meter cupboard outside your home. i.e. very difficult to do and extremely dangerous too).

However many park home owners (etc) use either propane cylinders

or refillable LPG cylinders (which can be filled anywhere that Autogas is sold)

In such cases, a thief would simply steal the entire cylinder, rather than just its contents, as the lady who runs a burger van up the road from me knows only too well!

The cylinders can often be more attractive to thieves than the gas within them:
