I'm stuck on the OP's statement that it's considered HazMat, after it's completely empty, & the valve is removed, the metal tank it's self is Not considered HazMat.
You're exactly right IMO. But it also depends on who is calling the shots and their opinion of what "hazardous" is.
"No propane barbeque tanks can be taken to the Seattle or King County transfer stations for garbage disposal."

That was when I got thinking what I could turn tank into. If I was going to get rid of it in garbage I would take valve off.
