5lb propane tank ?

Where is the best place to pick up a 5lb propane tank?


I would also like to find a bracket to mount it to a trailer.


Thanks, Jacque

The tanks you can get from any dealer of Manchester Propane tanks. I bought a couple in Austin last year.

Brackets may prove a challenge, I've been looking for months for the right application and haven't come across anything that works with my M416 trailer.

propane tank

I know home depot in Tucson has them, but someone else posted a while back saying it was cheaper to go to a propane fill station and get a tank there because it will already be filled.

Check your large rental stores that sell propane or a camping store such as REA or an RV place that also sells camping gear such as Camping World.

A 6 qt spaghetti pot from Walmart works as a 5 and 10 lb propane tank mount. I removed the handles and drilled holes in the bottom and mounted 2 on my roof rack. They are black aluminum so they won't rust.

Costco was the lowest price I could find on 5lb tanks ($22.00) but no bracket.
