Where Can I Buy Wood Pellets In Bulk?
If you use wood pellets to power your home, ensuring you always have a good supply on hand is essential if you’re going to keep your property warm and cosy.
Although most modern pellet stoves are incredibly efficient, you’ll still need to buy in a considerable quantity of pellets to get you through the cold British winter.
Timing your pellet order perfectly will help to ensure that you have plenty of fuel on hand whenever you need it, and that you don’t end up with a surplus when summer rolls around again.
Wood pellet consumption throughout the year
The amount of wood pellets you get through during the year will depend on a number of factors. For a start, if you like to have your home heated to Caribbean conditions from morning till night, you’ll probably find you get through a lot more pellets than someone who heats their home to a standard room temperature.
Properties that are new, well insulated and draft-free will require very little energy to heat while large, rickety homes will need a little more fuel to get them through the winter.
If you use your pellet stove to heat the water for your central heating system, you’re likely to use a lot more fuel compared to households that use their stove purely as a local heat source.
Keeping a steady supply
If you use your pellet stove in every season, you’ll need to order wood pellets throughout the year. You’ll probably find you use fewer pellets in the spring, summer and early autumn months and more in the winter.
Once you’ve developed a good relationship with your wood pellet supplier, you’ll be able to adjust your orders to suit your changing needs. Make sure you get a bumper load of pellets in before winter arrives to ensure you’re ready for the cold weather.
Storing your wood pellets
If you have the space to store your wood pellets in a dry and secure environment, you can order as many bags of the fuel as you like. Ideally, your pellets should be kept well away from water and extreme temperatures. If possible, it’s also a good idea to keep the fuel in the dark.
Dedicate a dry corner of your garage or a section of your shed to pellet storage and you’ll be able to order more than enough bags of the fuel source to get you through the year. Ensuring you always have plenty of wood pellets on hand will help you keep your home toasty and warm throughout the year.
