CO2 refills - Ellicott City area?


Does anyone have any recommendations on where to get CO2 refilled in the Ellicott City area? This would be for a regular 5lb CO2 cylinder.

I'm in Catonsville, and go to Roberts Oxygen in Glen Burnie. There's also one in Laurel. They don't refill, they exchange your empty tank for a full one.

Thanks so much for the quick response! Just to clarify - Both Roberts Oxygen locations do not refill, and just exchange?

I've only ever been to the one in Glen Burnie, but as far as I know that is true for both.

Yeah in MD it's better not to buy a tank on the net because you are going to give it away to Roberts Oxygen, so if you buy one ther it works out about the same. I think the closest place to get a fill is in VA at Lee's, IIRC.

I actually found a small shop that will refill your existing tank.
I believe it was $15 to refill my 5lb tank.

Laurel Bottled Gas Co.

Just went to Laurel Bottled Gas - definitely the place to go around the Baltimore area.
