The other nice thing about burning pellets, or even cord wood for that matter, is that you have a much better idea of were your money is going when you make the purchase. I can buy pellets from NEWP, which resides in the next town over from me, and know that "MOST" of that money is going right back into the local community. Not into some Oil Mans hand in another country. As for burning fuel for the shipping... if those guys weren’t hauling pellets in their trucks, they would be hauling something else, that's their job.
