Lehigh

Lehigh's coordinates are in their ad or right on their website. I think I would assume that to be fairly close to where you'd want to be to talk to somebody about getting a load.

i suggested this once long ago, but I'd love to see a US map with all the locations to buy coal at, not just breakers. Just one of those simple maps with pins at each location, numbered or whatever, with the address below. I used to see those maps on music artists websites with where shows were going to be. Or even just a long list state by state would work.
That said, the coordinates will be ok for looking at them on satelite photos or those within driving distance. Im looking forward to the new site.

I should have something like this however you will able to go into business directory and narrow your search. e.g. filter by state, delivery/pick up only, bulk, bagged etc.warminmn wrote:i suggested this once long ago, but I'd love to see a US map with all the locations to buy coal at, not just breakers.
It won't just be coordinates, it's going to have a Google map. You'll be able to type in your address/Zip and get directions etc.That said, the coordinates will be ok for looking at them on satellite photos or those within driving distance. Im looking forward to the new site.

Yes, this is what I seek also! There is a link to a zillion breakers somewhere on this site, but I want locations for coal pick-up.warminmn wrote:i suggested this once long ago, but I'd love to see a US map with all the locations to buy coal at, not just breakers.
