Hi I have been filling Propane tanks since 1969. Not every year but some where around 15 yrs or so. I was not concerned about checking dates, until a worker of mine. Related this story. Some where in 2011 he was filling a tank for a customer and found it to be out of date. The customer told him he was completely out of propane and had a sick wife and was needing to keep her warm. If he would just fill it and he would buy a new tank as soon as that one was empty. My worker said he protested but was worn done by the customer. Just as soon as he was done filling the tank. The customer pulled out a badge and gave my worker a fine for I think he said $500. I have been diligent in checking dates on the tanks since then. So the powers to be will do stings for propane in some areas.
