Biggest drawback at least in NY, is you must have certified scales big enough to drive on.

Note that I don't allow solicitations for customers, I'll leave this open for discussion purposes.

Edit: for a source you might want to check the suppliers thread or even the phone book.:

Hi Duckman, where are you located as I am in CT? I believe the scale requirment is the same in CT but I know of a vendor in Meriden who does not have a scale. Not sure if he is permitted as a fuel dealer. For sources, your best contact is member coalberner, he is the Forum's Oracle on coal supplies.

Because I'm only five minutes away from BT it wouldn't help me at all. I'm sure there are a bunch of people in your area who would be happy. Good Luck.
