Ground the fuel source to the aircraft, and then to the ground if able.

Also, with regards to tanks.. you can spend a little money here, and get
a 20-30 gallon marine transfer tank that has wheels. You can spend
around $200 for an electric pump to go with it. It beats making repeated
trips with a bunch of 2 1/2 gal tanks. If you want to go even further,
there are tanks that can be installed in the bed of a pickup truck for
not much more (if you drive a pickup)... or collapseable flat fuel
cells that are also sold commercially.

When refueling, do I only need to worry about grounding the a/c?
