Apparatus for holding an elongated tank such as a propane tank in an upright position when the apparatus is positioned on an inclined surface includes a base support to provide a footing for the apparatus on the surface and a tank support for carryi ng the tank. The tank is secured to the tank support with the longitudinal axis of the tank e xtending substantially perpendicular to a plane of support associated with the tank suppo rt. In turn, the tank support is pivotally connected to the base support to permit pivotal mo vement of the tank support relative to the base support between a position where the plane of support extends substantially parallel to the inclined surface and a position where the plane of support extends substantially horizontally. The tank support may be braced in th e horizontal position.
