When I was referring to a better deal, I was referring to the likes of free shipping

CB fuels, €440 delivered to Co Roscommon last week. They deliver with their own truck and forklift but may take up to 2 weeks before they are in the area for delivery. Was Hayes Surelight bags in the past but now in their own bags. Seems to be the same ovoids and burn characteristics still.
I can vouch for CB, have been using them for the last 4 years.. Ovids in the stove great coal
Is there anywhere delivering a tonne to cork? Or only 3/4?
At least 2 companies do. Read back the last couple of posts
€445 for tonne delivered to Wicklow
Ordered a ton of the ovoids - thanks for that.
€440 delivered to Wicklow, thanks.
That's great. Anyone know any other companies like this that would deliver a tonne like this with a forklift/palfinger? Driveway is on a bit of a slope/hill and last time it could only be left at the gate. If I could get it as far as the door it would make a massive difference.
Not a chance. Its a curb side pallet delivery. If they can easily move the trucks along a drive the drivers are normally happy to oblige but not on gravel or up a curb or up or down a slope.

Hi you could ask CB fuels, because few post up. There is a post from @mikewest saying they use their own wagon and fork lift trucks. To delivery to him. But ring before buying or e-mail them photos of your drive.
Give them a call, I usually order over the phone as I get an idea of when they will be delivering. They seem to cover a good bit of the country and they have a good range of coal.
Well after a month of burning McLaughlin’s Ecoglow (green bags) at the weekends on an open fire, I'm delighted with the output. The ovoids have been very consistent in both size and integrity, and very little ash in the bag.
Serious heat output, very long lasting and burns completely to ash with no rocks leftover. One bucket lasts me from 3pm through past midnight. The only compliant is that my grate has started to crack - but I expected as much given its not a heavy duty one and I chose Ecoglow purely because of its higher anthracite content.
I was nervous moving from traditional coal to 'smokeless' after I exhausted the last of my supply, but TBH its much better in every way except a lack of flame. But this is just visuals and I'll happily take the extended red glow of the coals any day of the week for all the other benefits.
Had tonne of ovoids delivered by CB fuels earlier. Very impressed as I'm on a narrow steep drive, but their all terrain forklift dropped them exactly where I wanted plus pallet was completely sealed. Beats having to haul them myself from roadside.
That's a huge bonus indeed. Will give them a lash, thanks.
Leaving logistics aside what is the best burning stove fuel ATM? I've had good and not so good outcomes with NI supplies. I'm in the market for a ton shortly and am looking at different outlets for Ovoids that burn hot and long. Quality is my main criteria.
Where did you get it from, any good deals?
I have been buying solid fuel for over 20 years. Maguires offer good quality & service.
Wray Group. Prices on web site.

A little bit of haggling needed to get delivery for £40
Would help if they published what products they sell and prices!
Hi Folks.
I'm just wondering if anyone has had a smaller delivery of smokeless coal lately?
I just need maybe half a pallet.. but I can't manage big 40kg bags.. need 20 kg ones
Like 20 bags at the most…
Id use it in stove or open fire alongside the oil central heating.
I dont light a fire every day.. mainly weekends like.
Thanks
"Buying a half pallet of smokeless coal can be more expensive per bag compared to a full pallet. Have you considered asking a neighbor or a couple of neighbors if they'd be interested in splitting a full pallet with you? That way, you can both save on the cost per bag
Has anyone ordered Eco-stove from suppliers in NI?
Bought from smokeless coal express recently, first time using them and the coal, delivery took abour 4 days and much happier with the coal compared to last year using coal warehouse smokless ovoids
