Interesting article. Expected to burn 600 tons a year. 42 ton pellet silo. Go MWP!

They are impressive. Got to see the one over in Falmouth. It eats 60 tons a week in wood chips.

I was a little surprised by the $175/ton price for 600 tons. Especially since I've been buying the same pellets at HD for $178 with a military discount.

Yea I was a little also. Maybe that is the delivered price?

We'll probably never know. I didn't know MWP did bulk deliveries.

You are probably right. We will never know. I don't know if they do bulk deliveries.

Somebody is doing it to fill that silo.

Awesome!

Yes. Only bulk pellet delivery service that I know of is heutz oil in L/A area.

 

[subsailor]

That truck must be pretty busy. There's a number of places with commercial pellet boilers now.

MESys has the banana truck for bulk delivery, see pic in link and here is a short list of bulkers in the northeast
