When I was hauling propane the storage facilities kept it in a 1000 gal. propane tank. The use of a pressure vessel however, seemed to be protection from a collision with a truck. One day the injection system was down and we simply drained off some in a plastic soda bottle and poured it in our hose before hooking to the transport'

An old propane tank can contain a significant amount of hydrocarbons, usually in the gasoline and diesel boiling point range.
