Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Store Propane In a Storage Unit?

No, you can not store propane tanks in a self storage unit as their flammability poses a serious safety risk. Storage units are enclosed spaces with little to no ventilation, so any propane that leaks can collect, potentially causing a fire or an explosion. Storing propane in a unit goes against fire codes and safety regulations.

Where To Store a Propane Tank?

You can store your propane tank at home—but you should never store them in an enclosed space, like a garage or shed. Instead, store a propane tank in a ventilated, cool spot outdoors in an upright position that is at least 10 feet away from anything combustible or flammable.
