You can purchase bulk at Kingston Supply on Rt. 30 Latrobe Pa.

My name is Bill

I was wondering if a group could get together and get a trailer load brought in from out east.

Bagged in 50 lb.bags

Please email me bmdetesta@comcast.net

I was tooling agound google maps and came across this effort. (Mapping all the coal breakers) I don't know if it one of our board members but looks like a whole bunch of work has been already been done. Don't know who "Nate" is or how to get in contact with him. Any guesses?

Call Mulholland Enterprises LLC at 518-893-2165. They are right next to Saratoga Springs. They pick up their coal in the South Tamaqua Coal Pockets and sell it loose or bagged. They deliver.

Greetings All,
We would like to purchase 10-15 pallets (60x 40Lb bags), Rice Coal, preferably Blazschek, delivered to Valatie, NY. We'd be happy to split a load with someone, if there's anyone out there interested. Please shoot me an email, . If anyone knows of a trucker, who can bring a full load, I can likely find locals who will split it with me.
Thanx,
Hoddicka

Hi All,

Does anyone have a favorite Blaschak dealer near the breaker in Mahanoy City, PA or surrounding area? I would like to get 2 tons of bagged nut/pea. I have access to a dump trailer and plan on making one trip in the June/July timeframe. My goal is to reduce the transportation cost incurred when purchasing bagged coal outside of NE PA. Unfortunately, bulk coal is not feasible because once I got it to my drive way, I couldn’t get it around back easily; such is life in suburbia. Anyway, if you know of any dealers in the Mahanoy City area please forward their names to me. Thanks Lisa

Lisa you'll find the bag prices here are not much lower than what they are outside of the area. I'd suggest finding a dealer closer to your location and price it there first before making a long trip this way.

Hi Lisa, my Blaschak dealer is in Easton, PA. I'll give you the address & phone number if you want.
If you can get the trailer in your driveway, how about using a wheel barrow to get a bulk load around to the back of your house? Just a thought to save some money on bagged....

Thanks for responding. I appreciate the advice, when you're driving that far you definitely want to check things out before you leave.

I hear what you are saying about the price being "not much lower than what they are outside the area" but I have a personal problem with that. I may just have to accept it but it burns my biscuits. Since I've been burning coal I've been told that the reason a bag of coal is so expensive in Northern VA is because of the transportation costs. In my mind, reduce the shipping costs and you should be able to get a better price on the actual coal and when that's compounded over 2 tons you should save some money. Since I have access to a dump trailer at no cost and live within a tankful of gas to NE PA it would seem I should come out ahead.

After I've gathered all my information it may not work out that way and if not I will just have to suck it up and deal with the higher cost but I still won't like it. That's just how I feel. Thanks again,

That would be great! I'd much rather go someplace someone has been to before. Unfortunately, neither my husband nor I are physically able to use a wheel barrow and get the coal around back. He has steel rods in his back and I throw mine out very easily these days - enough to know not to try to shovel a couple of tons of coal into a wheel barrow. Any savings we'd see on the bulk purchase could easily be eliminated with the increased medical bills. Sad but true. No, we are stuck with using bagged coal; at least until we can make our permanent escape from suburbia. Thanks, Lisa
