Has to be delivered. I found one place in Vermont but they want $500.00 pallet-delivered. I'll fire up the furnace before I pay that much. I've tried everywhere I can think of. Anyone? :cheese:
anyone know of a source in Maine for biobricks or enviblocks?

Damariscotta Hardware in Damariscotta has been selling Biobricks for $300 per pallet. They do deliver, but there is an extra per mile charge. Whether they have any left, I'm not sure. All the Finest Hearth stores - Yarmouth, Topsham and other locations - carry the product but do not offer delivery as far as I know. Again, I dn't know if they currently have any available. There are also plans in the works for a Biobick factory in Maine - possibly Augusta. If this should happen, availability and price should improve.

There is a lady in South portland who has 2 ton? of the bio bricks that she is trying to get rid of. She is listed in either uncle henrys or craigs list under a FIREWOOD search. She said they just aren't working out for her. Finest hearth and home in Portland and Yarmouth are dealers. I don't know what their availability is though.
Big Fish, 5 months ago $245 per ton, had plenty. Today $500 per to and have non, crazy. I can hear those boys now,if only we did not sell @ $245. Don

When I called them a month or so ago they wanted $400 a ton for Bio bricks, the Envi's were cheaper at around the 300 dollar range.
the bio bricks they have are from canada and the freight is the biggest killer but the envi blocks is the better product
If you are looking for BioBricks in Southern Maine try this guy -- (broken link removed)

I do know that a ton of Envi Blocks are compares to a cord of silver maple at a 20% moisture content. The moisture content of envi blocks are around 5 % moisture
well these products arent for everyone but the benefit is that there are no bugs, very little moisture and very little creasote

I would add that burnt correctly BioBricks burn longer, put out more consistent heat and burn cleaner than cordwood. This makes them a good alternative especially in urban areas.
Right now most of my wood is free, so it's kind of a moot point. But if I was living in Seattle and paying $300 a cord for NW softwood, a ton for $250 would be sweet.
I hear ya,250 is not a bad number but the crooks around here want $400 to $500 per ton now,sinful. I went through a couple tons
two seasons ago and my wife and I enjoyed the product. But since then these prices have put a bad taste in my mouth. Don

I think I'll stick with wood for now.
But as I get older/slower/lazier, I can foresee myself burning these.
