We have paused deliveries of wood pellets through the spring of 2025. Please note that due to unforeseen circumstances, we are unable to use a pallet jack during deliveries for the foreseeable future. Please note that we have a limited stock of LG available and they will not be available for the 2025 Wood Pellet Early Buy.
The Energy Co-op offers fair prices and dependable delivery on high quality wood pellets as a renewable, low-carbon alternative for Vermont homes.
We encourage our wood pellets customers to become Co-op members in order to take advantage of our early-buy and budget payment plans. Members also receive updates on availability and special offers throughout the season.
Some things to consider when buying wood pellets for your wood pellet stove:
- Quality and consistency are more important than whether wood pellets are made from hardwoods or softwoods.
- Look for wood pellets with higher energy content (BTU’s/lb.) because they burn hotter. Look for numbers around 8,000 BTU/lb.
- Low ash content means less maintenance. Burning a ton of wood pellets with 0.3% ash content produces six pounds of ash; wood pellets with 1% ash content would produce 20 pounds of ash – more than three times as much.
- Low moisture content means that more energy is used to heat your home instead of evaporating water in the wood pellets.
We deliver Vermont Wood Pellets, LG Softwood Pellets, and Maine Pellets anywhere in our service area. (Delivery to Washington County towns in our service territory requires a minimum purchase of 2 pallets.) Our driver will also pick up wooden pallets from previous deliveries for recycling. We are unable to use a pallet jack for deliveries at this time.
