Location of mesh within background mesh

I am trying to model flow around a cylinder using snappyHexMesh and am a little stuck. I made a background mesh as a cube with point 0 at (0,0,0), and max x,y,z points of (30,10,5) respectively. I have an .stl file of a cylinder which I am meshing using snappyHexMesh. Every time i place the cylinder, it is at the point 0,0,0. What i want is for the cylinder to be at around 10 in the x direction and 5 in the y direction. Do i have to change my blockMeshDict for the background mesh to move the position of where the cylinder is located? I know locationInMesh and refinementBox are not the indices to change, so that is my next thought. Though I feel there should be an easier way to say "Move my mesh to this place in my background mesh". Thanks for the help!
