I asked the gas guy. The only tanks that must be carried standing is self-venting tanks, which would empty themselves if laid down.
We 'fill the gaps' in emergencies when their own trucks aren't available. They transport all the tanks vertically because the entire system is designed to, from storage pallets to trailers and trucks.
