How is it possible to carry these loads that you mentioned when U-haul states that the max. load for the 6X12 is 1,915 lbs.?

U-Haul understates their capacity so they won't be liable if something goes wrong. "You said I could haul 8,000 pounds, I had 7,998 in it and blew a tire as I back into my yard. It swerved and crushed my red wagon, I want a new red wagon and seven million dollars for pain & suffering".

Looking for a haul from superior to 14437 Dansville NY 200 miles. 22-30 tons. PM Thanks Brian

I'm curious if those trucking companies will deliver smaller loads around 5-6 tons?

Yes,I was wondering the same thing. Chris

I don't know what the policies are at U-Haul but I'm doubtful they are going to be renting trailers with higher capacities than what they are stating. Simply put it costs more money. I've said it before keep with whatever they are registered at. The trailer itself maybe fine for that weight but you only need a single point of failure such as a tire that is not rated for the weight. As the weight rating for tires increase so does the cost, U-Haul isn't going to be putting $150 tires on a trailer that only needs $100 tires.

The other thing is if you get stopped by DOT the fine is going to be quite a bit if you are grossly overloaded.

You'll need to hook up with a coal dealer for weights like that. A coal dealer can make it feasible for smaller weights because they can split the load.

Who has the best prices for bagged coal in PA that sells in bulk? After knocking around bagged vs loose I decided that bagged is worth the extra dollars for the convenience. I found Penn coal who is a re-seller (not sure whre they get their coal) for 190.00 a ton.

Thanks for the info Richard.

I searched through the forums and didn't find an answer. Does anyone know of a dealer that sells UAE or Superior?

I got the name Ken & Carrie Clinger from Superior coal, but they haven't returned my calls.

It looks like I can't use Double Run b/c I think the rig is too large to get into my house. I can do a tri-axle no problem.

Anyone have names of other Tri-axles that will run the 300 miles from Pa to RI?

Thanks!

Well, I'm starting to get a little nervous. Called Superior yesterday to see aobut getting 20 tons of rice coal and to ask if they knew of anyone willing to haul it to the Albany, NY area and they said they were not taking new customers at this time. Apparently, they currently only have enough coal to supply their current customers. I was told to check back later in the summer, but I'm worried I'll be at the mercy of bagged coal suppliers in the area (at over $300/ton).

skipjack There are doing repairs on the breaker they do not have in running so they can't make coal right now if you call
them in 3 to 4 weeks they will be able to fill your order when the Repairs are dunn Lori or Roger should of told you that

Hi guys
I’m new to coal burning, and I have purchased a Harmon VF3000 that should be here by the end of the summer. I live in northern Westchester county NY, and I am looking for 4-5 tons of bagged coal? Anybody else in the area know what the going rates are and where we can purchase some bagged coal

Thanks

I am looking for bagged Blashack rice coal. 6-10 tons in Saratoga County New York. Can you suggest a vendor and price?

If you know that you want Blaschak, give them a call and ask for a list of dealers in your area. (570) 773-2113
