I'm looking for a bagged coal supplier in the Western part of PA, perhaps around Armagh where Lehigh produces it's Anthracite. This is about half the distance compared to the Pottsville region where I have been looking and would save greatly on shipping charges for a truckload. Unfortunately, I am told, Lehigh only sells bulk coal.
Thanks

Lehigh is located in/near Tamaqua.

Kimmels is located at the Western edge of the Sourhern anthracite field, and will be the closest to you.

Thanks,
The reason I mentioned Lehigh is that they also have a mine in Armagh according to their website... or perhaps it's just an office. It gave me hope because that's only a 4+ hour drive from here.

Western PA is clear across the whole state, nearer to us in Ohio. :)

I am about 10-15 mins from Armagh, PA. If you think there is something nearby, I'd be glad to check it out.

But from the generations of miners here, it's all bit coal.
