Huntley Montana
I need to move a 1000 gallon propane tank in the morn. It has 30% fill. 2 lift eyes about 6-8' apart of 1/4" steel. Thinking of lifting & putting it on a flat trailer with a 580c. What does the tank weigh? Propane? Should I use straps under the tank to lift?
What do you folks think?
Need to move a 1000 gal propane tank. Has 30% in it. 2 lifting eyes about 6-8' apart look like 1/4" steel . Dare I lift from those to set on a trailer? What does a 1000 gallon tank weigh empty? Figguring 5# per gallon of propane so that is 1500#. Might be able to get straps under the tank to lift with. Thinking it's going to be about all the 580c will lift.
