When Irving chose to skip 2 deliveries and then charge $340 for a service call and emergency delivery fee, I yeeted their empty tank and called a local provider. Irving came with a smallish crane flatbed truck, and lifted the empty tank while parked on the street. “I’m nearly at maximum extension and that’s why tanks are delivered purged with 10% fuel.” The crane would lift >1000 pounds at the truck, but not at full extension and merely 15 degrees of angle.

The local provider came with a smaller service truck, the same size tank and no means of getting over the snow. The tank @40% was tipped and slid into a tractor bucket, strapped and driven to the connection site.

These can be moved, it’s not rocket surgery.
