Has anyone found a good way to dispose of or recycle the empty propane cylinders

If they are empty, (the small ones) they can be throw in the regular trash can. Make sure all gas is out. The big ones need to go to the recycling center.

Easy----you refill them. Amazon has what you need. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_0_15?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=propane+refill+adapter&sprefix;=propane+refill+%2Caps%2C243

That is a good question for which I am also trying to answer. It seems you are not supposed to throw them in the recycling or regular trash for fear some people would leave gas in them and they might blow up and injure someone when the trash is processed. I have checked the internet and the only reasonable answer I have found is to save them and turn them in at a hazardous waste collection site if your community happens to have one yearly like a lot of communities. Good luck.

I actually purchased a Propane Tank Fill Adapter that I use to refill from a 20lb tank.It refills my 1lb tanks in about a min. Then I just go change out my 20lb tank at the local hardware store

The answer to your question depends on where you live. I would suggest you contact the city department that handles trash pick up. You may be able to simply put them in the trash when empty, or in the recycle bin. You may have to take them to the dump or transfer station and drop them off as hazardous material. In any case, when mine no longer provide enough gas to burn the torch, I leave the tank attached, open the valve all the way and set it down outside over night so all of the gas dissipates. I then save them up until I make a trip to the transfer station. Hope this helps.

You don't need to recycle...It's pretty easy to refill.There are plenty of "how to..." Videos online

It is very easy to empty the container. I just dump the container in a trash bag lined receptacle and that's it.

I re-use the metal canisters from Natural Flame, the oblong ones. (says "do not reuse" but that's so you will buy new ones.)

I take the collection canister outside and use compressed air to blow out the inside. Not the most convenient way, but it's the best way I found to remove the fine dust accumulation from around the red cones.

I have a model with a reusable bag. You just unzip and dump into9 a plastic trash/leaf bag. There are reusable bags but the cost would be prohibitive, IMO.CORRECTION: I meant disposable bags.

I got my canisters in the camping department at a local store. I don't know if Amazon sell it but it it very possible they do. It is propane in small canisters.

Any company that picks up junk will pick up the contents, you don't have to use Waste Management Company. They charge more. But if you want to use them go online to their website and plug in your zipcode. I normally reuse these several times so I ask my trash hauler to leave it behind when they empty them. BTW, Tears on the bottom (after several uses) are easily repaired with duct tape.

I take the pods back to the store for recycling, but I don't think every store does that (I live in NYC). There's a contraption called the Outpresso that makes it easy to empty the coffee grounds (once they're empty they can be recycled anywhere). Unfortunately it's not widely available, but I think it can be ordered: http://www.outpresso.com/index-e-1.htm.

there is some sort of converter hose available. Not sure where to get it though... I suggest calling weber's 1-800 number for assistance. We hook ours up to a full sized propane tank and got a converter for that.

We recycled ours from the old one. So I can't suggest where you could find on.

Our suggestion it's to go to the store you purchase your propane from ex camping world, or Home Depot and they can instruct. We use the green small propane bottles.

They claim to be recyclable, but I know of no place that will do so. Whether they are intended for use in air guns (Crossman, BB, Paint-Ball, etc.) which can use almost any compressed gas (air, nitrogen, or any compressed gas that is basically left-over from the gas separation and compression process that is compressed into chargers for use in anything that needs the pressure), or purified and filtered food quality pressurized gas chargers, I know of no place that will accept the chargers for refilling. However, as to recycling, you can collect them to sell as scrap.

YES. Any NEW, UNUSED, cylinder must be purged. This involves connecting a vacuum pump to the cylinder to remove any air and moisture that may be in the new cylinder. Mine was purged by the RV center in town here and then they filled the cylinder for me. Most places that refill cylinders should be able to do the purging.
