Seems like a good deal on coal....

Foggy Jew

The following prices for coal have just been posted in my local 'Buy Sell Swop' Facebook page. The prices are based on purchasing a pallet of coal & they suggest that individuals can share a pallet if they want. The merchants are in the North of Ireland, so the delivery will cost you. I think it's about €40.00 to deliver to the Dublin area. It seems like really good value.

Slack 40kg for €6
Amber King 40kg for €7
Champion Premium Coal 40kg for €8
Black Diamond Blend 40kg for €10 (semi smokeless)
Smokeless Ovoids 40kg for €12

Given the hike in costs I am presuming alternatives like Kosy King or others are potentially cheaper?

Hi All, just wondering what people's recommendations for open fire coal is, either from CW or KK. I've ordered from CW several times but it's always been ovoids. A friend is looking for open fire coal and with the price hikes I'm wondering what the best options are?

I would buy a pallet if I was saving €6 a bag but for under €2 a bag I will stick with my usual fella I think

Tonne from Easy Glow = €380 /25 = €15.20 per 40kg bag.
Your tonne works out at €17.80 per bag = savings of €2.60 per bag or €65 overall.

The €17.80 I was paying isn’t for a pallet it was just five bags at a time
I will give them a call tomorrow and see what price a pallet will be

Do easy glow offer free delivery to cork ? The website says free delivery but I wasn’t sure if that was for ni

€380 included delivery ( that is €380 pending currency value )

Have you tried Mill Fuels in Rathcormac?

Yes I tried stove coal from there €18 a bag and the stove was full of cinders and the heat wasn’t as good as supertherm ovoids

pm.

Just bought 2 ton of ovoids today from CW and worked out at £450 plus £120 for delivery.

CW are trying to source another delivery company locally as the price increase from LC is a bit of a joke. The online booking form is enough to wreck your head.... So much better just to make the call and give details over the phone rather than a 2 stage process with LC

Be interesting to see if they get an alternative courier

It's a job for a 26 pallet curtainsider, 50.00 a pallet and delivery within 7 days. Fill a load and then work your way down delivering.

What is best from Kosy King for stoves?

Maybe not the best which is the Maxibrite, the best value for money

Only stoves, no open fire

Would CW do 10 ton of ovoids cheaper?

mun1

Ordered 1 ton of ovoids from CW. Cost inc delivery by Connoly’s was €329. That’s €13.60 per 40kg bag.

Not being sarcastic or anything, But I guess the only way you will know is to ring and ask.

It's worth asking. Last year I told them I was very happy with their coal and that I would like to order 2 ton this time. They knocked 20 quid off.

Do you find there prices can vary a lot?
We'd get the odd thing there for the farm or heating supplies and the priced seem to go up and down every week.(Never overly expensive tough)

The prices on fuel have changed if its from the yard to being cheaper delivered, but the stuff is consistent that’s why I keep going back to him, I’ve tried so many other types that now I’m using the supertherm and coal brickets I’m happy with them, if I can find the same stuff cheaper I will change supplier though

studdlymurphy

Im not on fb has anybody got a price list? Open fires are all i have.

Good luck mate ours wouldn't bother quoting the price is the price, in our area they are the most expensive place to buy anything and coal is no different.

They normally do 2 bags Supertherm for €38
Good coal, = €38 / 4 = €9 per 20kg.
As far as I am aware they do a deal on a tonne of regular coal so no harm in asking.
Now that delivery etc has risen from the north,
Event from Easy glow
Last year I paid €380 tonne / 50 = €7.60 per bag.
If Coop did a bit of a deal then maybe knock another 50c or €1 per bag off, Brings the price down a bit while shopping local.
