Neighbors & a nitrogen tank

[TheCrow]

Hi. I plan to use the exit bag/nitrogen method, and I am concerned about the attention the nitrogen tank will draw when it is delivered. I am disabled, so I can't go pick one up, and I have no friends, so I can't "trick" someone into helping me with this. My maintenance guy brings all deliveries to our apartment doors, so he'd be lifting/bringing this up, and possibly knocking on my door and curious about it, leaving it at my door/coming upstairs and having neighbors see it, maybe mentioning it to my father whom he often talks to when he sees him because it's so odd. Also, would the apartment management be concerned or alerted because it would be seen as a safety issue for the rest of the tenants? I live in a studio, and who knows what they think I'm doing with it? Any ideas? I plan on saying I'm holding it for a friend that makes beer? Uuuugggh...but no one ever comes over...

My tank [large one] was delivered in a box [100cm x 30cm x 30cm], quite heavy. You need a good cover up story to smuggle such thing into your apartment if you cannot bring it yourself.
If you buy smaller tank - this should look like a regular parcel to anyone, so it should be be less suspicious. I would avoid mentioning 'gas' If I were you. Just have prepared good cover story.

try to convince people what you want to try a new hobby, beer brewing

Watch some videos on yt to see what 'beer brewing' means.



Read the first post; she is disabled girl who rarely leaves her studio. Sudden urge of making beer is
not great alibi in my opinion. Quite contrary.

Yeah, that has to be the explanation in part for sure. "Holding it for a friend" maybe? Lol/fuck.

Ooooh—so it came in a box?? I thought it'd come as-is. You're in the states, right? My maintence guy brings all packages to our door. Yeah, fuck that, I'm not telling anyone there's a gas tank in there. Hmm...maybe lamp base??...
