I am looking into pellets for my Bixby Maxfire, but am not having much luck finding a supplier around my area. Anyone out there have suggestions?
Thanks!! _________________ Maxfire 115 Black/Black

I was at a Menards this morning and they had wood pellets for $4 per bag/that's $200 per ton. That seems to be about the going rate for pellets now, at least around here. _________________ Countryside 3500P (pedestal version) used 8-9 yrs, 24/7 during days requiring heat. All original motors.

| Tractor supply in Viroqua has pellets Fuel King, North American Hardwoods, or Dejno's (however you spell that) for $165/ton. They also store them there for you if you don't want to get them all at once. They will be going up when it gets closer to the season. |

I was in Lowe's this morning. Pennington Co., Natures Heat pellets $3.99 by the bag or $3.59 full pallet price-$179.50 a ton. They are a southern company, maybe southern yellow pine, that should be hot burning. _________________ Countryside 3500P (pedestal version) used 8-9 yrs, 24/7 during days requiring heat.

ileed ... are you living in Oregon? That center is only a couple miles away from me and I've bought pellets there the last two years. Call in your order so they can have your supply shipped in. That price maybe $200/60 bags @ the pallet size. Two years ago they had Marth, but this last year it was advertised as hardwood pellets that smelled a lot like pine. Still burned well, just left a crusty pitch at the bottom of the burn pot. _________________ Profit/Turnaround Expert: http://webpages.charter.net/rennhack1/index.html |

Ahsucks, thanks for the reply. Sounds like we are neighbors.
I am their neighbor, and have bought a ton, but will need more. The pellets are Dejno's, >1% ash, 8,000 BTU. So much for what is on the bag. They still have 10 pallets on the lot. I am contemplating buying another pallet. I can't drive to Viroqua and save, nor to juda, just for a ton or two. |

Look for the ad for 149 a bushel under the Wanted/For Sale. CAll Tomand see if he has a truck coming your way. Or if there is a surplus of his Pellets in Madtown. _________________ MaxFire
