Is lookin for wood to cook with.
Just curious. How much charcoal everyone typically keeps on hand.
Currently I have about 90lbs but I just bought a few bags.

I loaded up at the end of May, big Kingsford sale (40 lb/$10). I've got maybe 300 lb. left

I typically get WG by the pallet, 30 bags x 22# each = 660#. Down to three bags of Weekend Warrior and a few assorted bags of mongrel lump. Time for a re-order!

Lessee, got a bag of Kingsford Comp, half a bag of Kroger lump and, um...that's it.
I pretty much buy as I need so sales don't really tempt me.

How do you get a pallet. Wouldn't even know where to start talking to someone around here.
I've got about 500lbs split between kingsford blue and royal oak big bags.

I can't even find Wicked Good around here. Would like to try it.

Here in LowSoCal, it's difficult at BEST to find quality cooking charcoal. The stuff that comes in those bags that say Kingsford.... I don't think any quality food should be cooked over junk fuel like that. So I have a pallet of coal dropped at my house every once in a while. That's 15 40# bags ($375 includes delivery to my house). Well worth it!

There was another question on this too, but I don't know how to get both in the answer box. I live in MA and the New England Distribution point is in central MA. I make arrangements for pickup with the company office, located in Maine, and then make the drive.
Looking at their website, it looks as though picking up of pallets is available at the central MA location only. They do however, arrange pallet shipping nationwide. Unfortunately, they seem to be out of stock at the moment, which is why I buy by the pallet when available. I DO NOT like to run out!
Here is a link for you.
