refrigerant taken from a customer's system expected to be reused in another of the same owner's system is to be left onsite. no, it's not an EPA suggestion. This is common sense. the customer owns it. leave it with them and charge them for the recovery container.

Saw a recovery cylinder on a roof a few months ago, and [shamefully] my first thought was: Ooo ooo, a recovery cyclinder, do I need a recovery cylinder? It was rusty and showed signs of being on the roof for quite some time. Then my second thought was, it's not yours, leave it alone.
I never even touched it to see if there was anything in it. Besides, I was there for a no heat call.

That's morals and honesty. I'd have likely picked it up and tested if something was in it. If something, then place in a more concealed/protected area. If nothing, then it's someone else's trash that's now my treasure (to turn in for a newer one )

If I get on that roof again, maybe I'll check it out. Ironically, I was on a roof across the street from that building today. And was looking over at it. But completely forgot about that recovery cylinder.
I've got two, maybe three [maybe four, depending on how you count] of the old 30 pounders with the black handles that I use for home use. Just, technically, cannot transport them with any juice in them.
Come to think of it, I've got a couple more of those with the black handles I use for a mini compressed air thingy in my garage. Probably shouldn't ever put anything with much volume or pressure in those.
