Wood Fuel Heating.
Domestic Wood Pellet Price in the UK today is now based on local production with many pellet plants currently supplying British made wood pellets.
Typically pellets are available to collect from a number of outlets; regular dedicated delivery service is now available in most parts of the UK as pellets are becoming widely used and are delivered in bulk blown lorries or via palletline carriers usually for £165/tonne based on 4 tonne delivery or by the sack: 1 tonne pallet delivery of 100 sacks at £175/tonne plus 5% Vat and delivery dependant on location at approximately £45/ tonne via palletline.
