I'm going to look at some stove coal for sale and I can't remember the formula for figuring out how much stove coal would be in x measurements. I know nut coal is LxWxH/40, so what would I divide the measurement by for stove coal? Anyone have the answer.

Are you looking for cu ft/ton?

If so, I fit a ton in an old pop up camper trailer. Maybe 5'x8'x18"?

Just to throw you off Nut would be divided by 43. Have a Merry Christmas while you're doing all that figuring.

I don't need to be exact, just close. I need to know about how much stove coal he has and if I have enough room for it. I could always throw it on a tarp and cover it with another tarp. Have a merry christmas.

Make sure it is ANT and not BIT. Take a little home and burn it to make sure. Somebody else on here bought from a salvage person and ended up with BIT.
