Notes -
Does anyone have any advice on safely getting rid of a smallish, mostly-full canister of propane? Most of what I'm finding online assumes the canister is empty. Hazardous waste disposal in my city is handled in a different county, by appointment, bringing it to their facility and waiting in line, and the next day they have appointment slots open is December 7th. I want to get this out of my space as quickly as possible - at the very least I'd like to find a safe way to empty it. The only reason I even have it is that my old roommate brought it from our previous apartment and the canister wound up in a box of stuff in a bathroom closet when we moved.
Pretty much all the manufacturers of these items have guildes to proper disposal of their products. Here is the one for yours: https://www.bernzomatic.com/About-Bernzomatic/CylinderSafe#. While is does assume they are empty, you can contact them for guidance on what to do with a partially full one. They even have a chat bot, though it probably isn't very good.
