Yea nothing was wet. I thought it was a deal also. Couldn't pass it up. Might go get 2 more tomorrow. This is the first winter with pellet stove so not sure how much we will use. Just trying to be prepared

It depends on how much space your trying to heat at what temp and how cold it will be. Never hurts to have extra as long as you don't get them wet or damp you can keep pellets for a long time
Yea we have a 1300sq ft home open style floor plan old country home. I'm guessing 2 a year....

If you think those pellets are going to work well at that price I would stock up with as much as I could store
I can make room for 2 more then I'm maxed out on room in the garage lol
I'm going to go get 2 more tomorrow.

$26 a ton? Wow, I wish I could get that deal - I would buy up a bunch and add to the 11 tons I'm sitting on presently!
I'm in Lima Ohio. They have misc brands there. 2 white bag brands and 1 brown bag brand. Just says premium pellet on the bags I do believe. The guy said they usually sell for $199 a Ton

Can you get the UPC code off the bags - that will probably tell us what they are. Different parts of the country get different brands in those bags.

Wow wish I could get a deal like that. As long as they've stayed dry they should be fine, no different then stocking up and keeping them in your garage. The pellets I normally get for $200/ton ARE last year's stock. I also had about 10 bad bags in my last pallet because the kid on the fork truck kept stabbing the bags instead of centering the pallet on my trailer. Thankfully my trailer is enclosed so we scooped up and bagged all the strays.

Seriously, $26 a ton? My oh my.
If there are damaged pellets, blown up, too many fines get yourself a cat and use those bags as litter. Or in the garage for oil spills. Or horse bedding. There's a shop near here that was giving away water damaged pellets, lots of people were using them for mulch (damn ugly mulch, but at least it went back to the soil).
At $26 a ton I'd be happy to get 10 bags for the stove here in the northeast, use the rest for whatever.

Yea I ended up with 6 tons from tsc. Only got maybe 10 bad bags out of all 6 skids. I'll probably never find a deal like that again...

To bad I would have filled my closets at that price. I thought menards selling sommersets at $180 was a deal.
