Calor gas heater

Is it a good idea to load one of these and a spare bottle, into my car and drive it 60 miles to its owner? I tried to hire a man and van to do it for me, but obviously no-one would take it.
The owner is an elderly lady and I feel better about taking it to her, rather than asking her to come and collect it. If it's not a good idea to drive it myself I'd ask a calor gas seller to come and collect it, then pay the lady something so she can buy another one.

Don't see a problem with transporting it yourself. Just make sure it is well secured, and keep the gas bottle upright.Also make sure the owner has a working Carbon Monoxide alarm (that is CO, not CO2) - These things can kill if used in an ventilated space.Her courage will change the world.
Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.1 -
I used to transport mine and the cylinders when I was a student. I strapped the cylinder into a seat using the seat belt and another strap and the heater went in the boot - no problem.1

Really you should have a LPG warning sticker on the rear of your vehicle when transporting a cylinder, they are only a few pence to purchase.1
