Your propane tank looks like a big horizontal cylinder with a valve on it.

You call an RV place or check the phone book to find a propane seller near you. Call them and see if they do RVs and get instructions to enter their property the easiest way.

They will take it from there, but you should have the propane tank and fill valve inside a clearly marked door with only a latch, not a lock.

Be sure they open the 80% valve. One time the guy asked me if I wanted a fillup, and I said yes. Unknown to me, he filled it completely full. Later, as I drove, engine heat caused the overpressure valve to open. It was disturbing.

Afterward, use soapy water to leak check the 80% valve to prevent an unpleasant surprise far from anywhere.

Inspect the rubber hose going from the tank to the coach carefully. They crack with age.
