I have moved several propane tanks with my tractor and a 1000 gallon with a case backhoe. All were as empty as they could be. I pick them up and set them on a trailer usually if there is distance involved for sure. What amazes me about the safety police is they always assume something is. I wouldn't have thought that you would have tried to move a full tank, you didn't say that anywhere in your post. So why assume people? Good job on the move. Many of us on here, including myself, do things on our own. We wouldn't own a tractor if we didn't. I buy my stuff to use. Regardless on how much it cost. And before someone says anything, I am not condoning any unsafe acts. I use my judgement and take full responsibility for anything I do. That's what it's all about. I will say this, most of the people you call out to pay to do something don't have enough sense to get out of the rain. LUTT
