Moving a propane tank

Well after all the hype I never had to move the tank. My neighbor borrowed another neighbors excavator to use the finger attachment to dig the 4" wide ditch for the propane line. It was way easier to dig an 18" deep trench with that through rocky soil than with a pick and shovel. Since he had the excavator we went ahead and chained up the tank by the attached lift points and set it in place after we leveled 4" cement blocks to set it on. Yes sir, the tank swung easily by the chains to make sure it was centered on the blocks and it was pretty easy to control as we rolled it into place. Thanks to everyone who had a suggestion.
