Disposal of small propane canister question.
Is it okay to toss the small green Coleman barbecue type propane canisters into the trash dumpster when they are empty? Or is there a proper disposal management for them?

On the side of the bottle is a warning not to refill.
Do you have some sort of adapter to refill them from a larger tank?
They make adapters and sell them on the internet. There are also a bunch of videos on how to do it. You do not get them very full unless you remove the relief valve on the container.
I have never done it. I just heard about it. I don't think that you can legally transport them if they are refilled.
Nothing magical happens to the cylinder when you refill them except they aren’t as full as a new cylinder. ( my experience)
The do not refill warning is two fold. Increase profits and to cover their arse should a cylinder fail.
