If I had the room, I would also be traveling for some of them. But still no way to stuff anymore in the basement........

Awww, c'mon Jay, there's ALWAYS room for more.....kitchen cabinets, clothes closets, inside the washer & dryer, in the dishwasher, under the dining room table, under the bed, etc, etc.....BE CREATIVE!!! ;-P

And that extra garage space you have? :lol:

Well, some of us are just lucky......"OK driver, back that big rig in here and unload those 20 tons right in that EMPTY end bay" ;-)

I just talked to the nice lady over there and it seems they have a lot available. She also told me that they will hold them for 30 days and you can pick them up at your convenience.
I am hooking up the trailer and heading over there.

yes, the big black "OK" means its been restacked by them

I just called also - buying 6 1.3 ton skids ASAP!

$219.00 per 1.3 ton pallet x 6 (7.8 tons) = $1314.00
Delivery = $70

$1384.00 total for 7.8 tons delivered

$177.44 PER TON!
I think it's $219 per ton .1.3 tons would be $284.70 so for 7.8 ton it would be $1708.20 or $219 per ton.

Yep - I just checked with them, $1773.20 total for 7.8 tons delivered. $227.33 per ton delivered.

Still a good deal! I just bought 6 - 1.3 ton pallets and will store them in the garage. ~Oink

X2 All this attentions has to be getting to him.

x3 i was wondering if he got the big bonus because he has to be responsible (or have some part) in moving a sheeet load of pellets!!! lol
maybe he will set up one of those cards for us so we can always get a "hearth.com" member discount!!!
BUT he has stood by the product and made many of us believers... it is one of the best pellets i have burned

I expected him to chime in. Maybe he's spending all the cash in the Islands were its warm? While we stay warm burning them.
 
It's hilarious that some of you are true pellet pigs...hoarding away 7 tons of pellets here and there..I love it. I just emptied my garage of the 9 tons of Inferno's I had in there (i gave them away with full disclosure). I can't decide whether to restock or take my garage back for its intended purpose. Winter will be over soon. Sure looks big and empty and ready for some type of a project. My wife was elated to use the treadmill again!
