Hate to say this but shipping is going up...... Bottom line it will raise the price of pellets.

Funny thing in another thread I mentioned buying now and someone said wait for the spring buy... I am not saying its not possible, but I don't see many spring prices being much if any cheaper than what we are paying now. with everything going on in the middle east and oil going up I find it very hard for those big boys not to make some extra money as they alwAys do...
then when they predict $5 a gallon for heating oil next winter ... prices will stabilize and drop some after summer

Ice- I think it was me who said to wait a month or so to buy your next years' needs.......still sticking to that, although I have some inside info......I donth think you'll get rich in the savings, but, still feel it will be cheaper, regardless od the current diesel prices........oh, and dont worry, if I'm right, I'll reference this thread, and if Im wrong, well, I'll forget I said it....lol

I dunno if it was you Or not... but I am hoping you are right!...

I was contacted by the shipping company I use to move my pellets. They are awesome, on time delivery, friendly drivers, and great customer service. I have used a lot of companies including some big ones and I have owned a semi myself, I am not Mr. Trucking but I know how the business works.

I was told there will be an increase in the fuel sur charge. This is the first time in 18 months this has happened. So just when you thought the price of pellets was falling, this happens.

Remember fuel is needed to start the chain saw that will drop the first tree to start the pellet making process so fuel is related. If I was a betting man I would not wait for those Summer Buy Programs if you see pellets cheap, grab them.
