If you are referring to the small 16oz propane tanks, you can usually just throw them in the garbage. If not, see below:
Propane cylinders are all steel cylinders that can be recycled through most salvage yards. The only requirements are to ensure the cylinder is completely empty and that either the main valve or the pressure relief valve is removed. These valves are similar to valves you find in the stems on your car tires and can be unscrewed from the fittings. To remove the valve, you will need a long tire stem tool which can usually be purchased at an auto parts or hardware store.
BEFORE removing the valve, you must make certain the cylinder is empty. To empty the cylinder, take it outside, far from any open flame or possibility of spark, and screw it to a lantern or stove. Open the valve on the lantern or stove. Attempt to light the lantern or stove and whether or not it lights, leave the valve open for several hours to ensure that all of the propane is vented from the cylinder. Failure to follow these instructions may cause personal injury or property damage.
Once the tank is empty and the valve is removed, you should be able to dispose of it at any salvage yard.

Coleman fuel is non-renewable as it comes from fossil fuels. These portable propane tanks are easy to transport and provide hours of use.
I would highly recommend a Coleman grill that uses the small propane tanks. These grills are very well made, have a reasonable cooking surface, and the use and storage of the gas tanks is very reasonable. The Coleman grills are highly portable, and would serve you well for tailgating.
Coleman's grills have been a staple of camping for many years. Depending on you want the good features will be different. Portable grills use small butane tanks, larger electric ones can be used for tailgating, and larger patio size ones come in gas or propane. Various m models exist and the Coleman name is a top brand for most people.
Propane tanks are required to have a safety relief valve. The relief valve is a safety device on the propane tank to vent excess pressure.

It is recommended that propane tanks should never be stored inside a home or garage. Propane tanks should be kept standing upright in well ventilated areas, near no flammable substances or materials.

propane can be found all over. Small containers of propane used for tailgating grills, small heaters and torches can be found at hardware stores and even walmart. larger tanks that are refillable can either be traded out at participating stores and gas stations convenience stores, or be filled by licensed stations. check for filling stations in your local phone book or on the internet
no it does not. unlike fossil fuels like gasoline, kerosine and diesel, natural gases like propane NEVER go bad.
The weight will never change. Allow the volume can change depending on the temperature. The hotter it is the more propane liquid will expand. This is the reason for only filling propane tanks to 80%.
