Propane Cylinders
Joseph Biscardi
Does anyone have any information on disposing empty propane cylinders (blowtorch or outdoor grill style, not commercial)? Our waste vendor charged us a lot to dispose of them and I'm thinking there has got to be a better way. Is it legal to burn off the gas and dispose of them with normal trash?

Have your plumbers use up the gas as best as possible. We use Prosolv product for propane cylinders that are RCRA empty. Here is a link:

I hope this helps.
