How to buy

When you buy your first BP gas bottle, the price you pay includes a charge for the use of the bottle, as well as for the gas itself. When your BP Gas Light bottle is empty, return it to your selected stockist to exchange it for a full bottle. This time, you'll pay only for the gas.

If you decide you no longer need a BP Gas bottle, you may return it to any BP Gas bottle stockist and receive a partial refund in accordance with the BP Gas Bottle Refill Agreement. Please ensure you keep this agreement safe after it is provided when you make your first purchase.
