Great service Juan is great. Always cheerful and they offer many different size tanks

Easy in and out. I love the old School feel of this station. The gentleman refilling my tank seemed extremely knowledgeable. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. I came by today (November 26th at 2:56 PM) to get propane because their posted hours online show they're open until 4 PM. Instead, the propane area was already shut down. When I asked about it, I was told they closed at 2:30 "because of the holiday," even though today isn't a holiday. The attitude I received was extremely disappointing. When I asked if they would be open tomorrow, I only got a rude nod. When I mentioned that we needed five propane tanks filled, the employee just shrugged as if it didn't matter. I'm very upset with the bad customer service and the lack of accurate information. If they're going to close early, they should update their hours and treat customers with basic courtesy. read more

If you're thinking of trading in your tank at Walmart instead, DONT. For an even $20 here, you get 20lbs of gas (tank trade ins only give you 15lbs). No frills - you drive up to the station, the guy is super friendly and refills your tank, and you're out of there in less than 5 min. No tank minimum - 1 tank is totally fine. read more

$80 for the 5 pound with 1 gallon of propane. REI has it for the same $80. but with no propane.

I needed to refill my propane tank and decided to try this spot after seeing it on Yelp rather than buying another tank at a gas station or Home Depot. The location is pretty easy to locate - it's in the back of a gas station. Drove right up to the attendee - pulled the tank from the trunk l, he refilled it and charged me $20 which I remember thinking was pretty cheap relative to what I've paid at the gas station but can't remember if it's a lot cheaper than hardware stores as well. The whole transaction has an old school vibe - and I dig it. Anyway, glad I found this spot and will be using mutual propane going forward. read more

I have now been coming here at least 17 years. Always solid service, never any problem. I've been served by the same exact person every time I've come in the last 17 years. Great attitude, always cheerful. The current rate is $3.60 a gallon, with minimum $20. Meaning you basically have to fill up two of the standard 5 gallon propane tanks. read more

Needed a replacement hose for my BBQ since one of the fittings on the hose was stripped. The guys set me up with a better quality (custom) hose than what I had for less than what Home Depot and Lowes could offer me. And they were fast, too! Will definitely continue coming back as needed! read more

You can't beat the customer service or the price of propane here. Behind a 76 Gas Station is where you'll find this lovely place (specifically to the right rear when entering the gas station). You simply pull up to the propane machines, take out your tanks that need refilling, and the VERY kind worker will help you out (I didn't catch his name, but he's been there for years!). There's a $20 minimum charge for filling, however, the worker hooked me up! I brought my little propane tank (1 gallon) to get filled and he did it for $8! They also sell large propane tanks in the main office. At times there is a line but it moves rather quickly. Patience, you'll get your turn! On the company's website you'll find a $0.15 off per gallon coupon, and if you check in on Yelp you'll get the same deal. read more

Fast and easy to filling bbq tanks I come back here for many years and the service is the same

FALSE ADVERTISING. THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE COUPON FROM THEIR OWN WEBSITE. Person filling the tank said that they haven't honored it for 3 years. That's plenty of time to have removed the coupon if they aren't trying to bring people in with the coupon price and then charge full price. Some tips: Don't get there within an hour of closing or you may find that they will not serve you. The usual person working there can be very unfriendly. Don't get on his bad side. Be sure to make sure the meter is reset to zero before. The person working there seems to "forget" to reset it all the way to zero if you are filling multiple tanks. Use your calculator to confirm the total before paying. Somehow, it is frequently calculated incorrectly. Pay with a credit card. Cash payments may be rounded up. read more

Even though the place was open, the person there (hispanic with mustache) was really rude to me, he literally kicked me out of there, and told me that the place was closed, his actual words were "don't you see I am talking to this guy, therefore the place is closed today" this happened today which is a Monday. Do your self a favor and stay away from there read more

I love this place. It's so easy. You pull your car to the filling station. They fill your tanks and off you go. The people are so friendly and there is no waiting. I got there close to closing and their staff was so nice and friendly. It was a pleasure doing business with them. I would recommend this place because the service was great and the prices were a lot cheaper than doing a tank exchange, Oftentimes you wonder if the tank you exchanged was full. Sometimes the clerk is busy and you have to wait until he finds his key to the propane storage. Take the tank back to the store to pay and take the tank to your car. At Mutual, you drive to the filling station, he fills the tank in front of you and pay him...no hassle. read more

As of late, I've been making weekly trips out to the Tustin/Santa Ana for business. The night before, I loaded up my empty propane tanks & was planning to get them refilled on my way back home @ a Shell gas station just down the hill from me. A neighbor said that he found them to be pretty reasonable; okay, cool. I've been using the grill more often since it has been so nice out but too warm to want to do any indoor cooking. As I was leaving my appointment, I thought, "Why not spin the roulette wheel of yelp* & see what turns up in the local area." So, here I am! You can't miss the building since there's only two on the lot. The Union 76, gas station on the left and Mutual Propane. Follow the painted road, "ENTER," & drive around to the back of the building.

Me: Hi, do I need to park over there or do I drive up here? Jose: What do you need?... Me: A couple of tanks to be filled? Jose: Here, is fine.

After spending a few minutes with him, it's easy to see why. As many others learned, such as I did today; propane tanks expire... Hmph, well what do ya' know?! Most tanks are stamped with a date/year and should be replaced every 12 years. Jose - https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mutual-propane-tustin?select=HnbPNq85WEjMptyVy72OTw Just as I pulled up a regular had just rolled in behind me. He has been coming to Mutual Propane for over the past twenty years. It was like a group of friends standing around bs'ing... It reminded me of Hank, Bill, Boomhauer, & 'Rusty Shackleford,' standing in the alley; sipping beer & bad mouthing charcoal grills. LOL - Wait! Would that me me KAHN?!!! HAHA!

Honestly, I love this place. I hate the process of exchanging tanks. Came here with an old tank, they tested the fittings to make sure everything was safe and filled my tank up. Loved the experience, the friendly service, and the price. Strongly recommend to anyone needing a propane refill. read more

Come here with two or more empty propane tank to refill is the best value, since the minimum charge here is $20. If you come here with one tank, its $20, and just a few dollars less than elsewhere for the exchange, but you do get more propane filled. The guy doing the refill is quick and friendly. read more

Friendly and professional service. Best price in the area. This is my go to place for any propane needs.

Cheap place for South oc - $16 for a five gallon refill but it sucks to come here at 4:00... 30 minutes before they supposedly close and see they already closing up shop. Don't make the trek out here just to fill up because it's not worth it if they close early, but if you happen to be in the area, it's worth a shot. I'd personally rather pay 4 bucks more at lowes so I don't lug around a tank for nothing.. But I'm lazy read more

This is now my go-to spot for a quick propane refill. You can literally pull up and leave with a full propane tank under 10 minutes. The price is cheap and it is way more convenient than exchanging your tank at Home Depot or at a gas station. read more

Best place in all of Southern California to get propane for either personal or business! Service is on point, prices better than competitors, and you are in and out so fast! read more

The only place to fill up. Easy access, friendly propane filler. I have 5 tanks a swap out every month. read more

Friendly Great customer service at a reasonable price. Attendant explained the tanks that are currently certified and why the change

Mutual Propane - Propane Near Me - Tustin, California

Arrived 15 mun before their closing time, they said they are closed for the day. So annoying and unprofessional!!!

Is it Groundhog Day already? I got brushed off and turned away this time last year and here we are again. Different scenario, same result. It took me an entire year to give Mutual Propane another shot and this year I showed up well before the holiday, and well before closing, to refill my three 20lb cylinders. Turns out it doesn't matter. Getting off work early and showing up at 4pm (30min prior to closing) , three days before the holiday still wasn't good enough. Waved at, turned away, told they were closing and that they couldn't squeeze me in due to there being a number of people waiting inside. I understand that things happen but it's oddly curious that it's happened again. Bad luck? I guess... Guess I'll wait another year. read more

Cheap propane. Great Service from Jose. Located behind the gas station and it's a separate business. Just pull around back towards the GIANT propane tank. Hard to miss. Paid $48 for 4 tanks. read more

I came here a few minutes before closing time. They gave me a new propane tank, filled it, and placed it in my trunk. Good and friendly service! read more

What a great service. Refilling propane can be a hassle, especially if you have trouble dragging the tanks around. Jose makes it super easy -- drive in with your tanks in the back and he'll take them out, refill them, and put them back. He'll also keep an eye on your tank's expiration date (yup, the tanks expire... who knew) and he'll recycle them for you when they're empty and need to be replaced. His prices are fair. All in all, a big A plus from me. (To find this business, pull into the same parking lot as the automated gas station next door. Follow the signs and drive around the back.) read more

I was in and out of here really quick. The service attendant Ruben was very friendly and professional. It's right off the freeway too ...

Found this spot on Yelp to refill my tanks for an event. Ruben was super friendly and helpful w/ the service. I would recommend this business and their employees for all of your propane needs. read more

This is where I get my propane tank refilled. Good price & good service, nuff said! They had propane when everyone else was out.

Really impressed with extremely quick considerate responses from Tom at the head office. He really gave me the sense that his company desires my business. Plus after having shopped propane suppliers for awhile, found his prices to be very competitive, and fair. I look forward to doing business with them if it's anything like the top notch customer care I received from Tom. Thanks Tom, very much appreciated your honesty, as well as suggestions. read more

My once a year go-to for bbq propane tank refills. Way cheaper than exchanging at the local gas station or hardware stores. Be sure to fill up at least a tank and a half to get your money's worth because they do have a minimum. I usually use up a full tank and a half of another by the end of summer grilling season and come here for a fill up. Quick, easy refill and you are on your way. read more

Mike is the man! He stopped what he was doing to help me out & answer all of my propane questions (i'm converting a van). really friendly and knowledgeable -- would def recommend this place. read more

Price is lower than exchange at Lowe's or Homedepot and much quicker. Pull up to the station, put your tank on the stand, and an attendant refills the tank. Reuben was very efficient and friendly. read more

Doing a propane tank exchange during Covid was getting to be a real challenge. So I'm glad I found Mutual Propane. You pull in around the back, the gentleman refills your tank, you pay and you're off. Easy! I went at 9 AM on a Friday morning and nobody was in line, I was out of there in five minutes flat. Best part is it's much cheaper than doing the tank exchange elsewhere ( I paid $20 to refill my two 5 gallon tanks). FYI - they prefer cash. read more

Really convenient place to fill up the tanks. The guy doesn't wear a mask though. He is outside, but still probably should wear one. Great prices though. read more

Fast fill-up, good value. Usually no or short line most days. Unless you go on a high impact day when lots of people are prepping their bbqs and outdoor heaters... read more

I went there on Thursday at 4:15. Gates were closed and everything was shut down. A guy came out and told me they closed early and to come back tomorrow. I drove there for cheap propane and to save a few bucks but ending up wasting money on gas. read more

Fast and cheap. I went on a Saturday afternoon and there were two cars ahead of me. It took about 10 minutes from arriving and leaving. I filled up two tanks. read more
