    I bring my tanks in to have them refilled. A lot of places will tell
    you that you must trade in your brand new tank for one of theirs
    every time you refill. The reality is that they will do it while you
    wait, just request it. Some are very busy and may tell you to come
    back another time. One told me they never refill while you wait, but
    I straightened them out right away. If I tell them I need it to make
    jewelry, they'll often tell me I have to trade for one of their very
    used tanks. When I tell them I'm a dentist (no, Kevin, I'm not one
    either, heh heh), they go right ahead and refill mine. I guess
    dentists need pretty tanks in their rooms. 

    I drive an SUV that has tiedown rings in the cargo area. I use
    bungee cords or cargo straps to secure the tank. You need to use
    whatever is available to you, but make absolutely certain that the
    tank can NOT roll around while you're driving. Or at any other time,
    for that matter.
