Leave it in your vehicle until you pay, then meet the clerk at the cage with your empty.
I prefer fill stations because they actually fill to max capacity. Not so sure with the exchange.
That's what I do. I leave it until the person doing the exchange is at the place where the tanks are. Then I drive up there , receipt in hand , and swap them out.
I don't do very many fills because the only place in my area that fills them is rarely open when I need it. Plus, then they get all picky and look at the date and stuff on the tank. When you do the exchange the kid handing you the tank could care less.
I can fill them at home myself from the big propane tank on the farm but, I have gotten lazy. I only do that when we have 3-4 of them that need filling at once.
