Bulk Pellet Delivery

[Steve Dimmick]

Does anyone in central PA get bulk pellet delivery? There is a place near Pleasant Gap that will deliver to Kylertown, but not Mahaffey unless I buy 3+ tons. Just curious if anyone else knew of any companies that delivered via truck and blows them into a hopper?

Thanks!

Why wouldn't you buy three tons?

It would be $900 for three tons....a bit steep, plus im on a fixed budget with only one income for a family of 5. If I get them bagged and pick them up myself, im looking at around $700.

It's convenient to get them delivered bulk blow in, I get that, but I guess I assumed it might be cheaper since they do not have to bag and store. They simply blow these into your hopper and go. I just started looking into this, so any information would be helpful.

Those trucks are real expensive. Plus, don't forget, that's delivered into a hopper. You'd have to add a delivery charge if the local hardware store was going to deliver it, and no way they would put it in a hopper.
