Get them filled at most any place.....U-Hauls, Tractor Supply, ACE Hardware, propane Vendors etc.
No drop off and come back....just take them and wait while they are filled.
Portable propane cylinders are good for 10 yrs (12 yrs) after MFG. Date then just need to have a simple 'Visual' Inspection done for re-certification....good for another 5 yrs
10 yrs vs 12 yrs-----
12 yrs was old DOT Requirement. It was changed to 10 yrs then halted and not fully implemented.
