If they are in sealed plastic bags why do you guys have to store it indoors?

My Dad keeps telling me I should cord my firewood in the garage so I don't have to go out in the backyard to get it. Never mind that, garage is already small enough as is! (24x26)

All bags of pellets are perforated and have holes throughout them. If left on the pallet in the factory wrapping, they can be left outside.

Water will turn a ton of pellets into a LARGE pile of sawdust very quick.

Are you sure the bags are perforated...All I see are indentations from being stacked on top of each other. If they were perforated, I would think the fines would find a way out of the holes and make a mess!!

Anyway, Impress pellet stash Dexter!!

They all have small holes to let the air escape the bag for stacking (let the air out). . You may not see them. But they are there. This is where water infiltrates the bag and attacks the pellets.

Here's my stash. I'll pick up a few more bags tomorrow. Usually get 3 at a time. No need to fill up my basement with pellets. What would I do with all my motorcycles?

I guess if it's because of motorcycles, it can be forgiven :)

My stash went from out here:

To in here:

...and I have JUST enough room for my bike on the left side of that pic... (bike is still outside underneath a cover and about 6" of snow :mad: This makes me sad.)
 
Not that it's going to help u with storage ideas but anyway...
Bike and a bit over 2 1/2 tons of pellets live happily together in my garage.

Wow.... Nice Bikes Coop... You aint lyin.. You dont have room.

Got rid of an 07 HD Super Glide this Summer.. Thats an eclectic collection you have. Wish I had more time to ride (ATV's sat all year too). Maybe when the kids are grown and me and mama are retired.
 
Why oh why do you have the poor ZRX hidden way at the back? That should be front and center!!!
