Wish someone in NE Ohio would stock Sherman coal!!!
Have you noticed any difference in the quality of Sherman’s coal recently? I picked up a load of stove coal back on Jan 13, it looks more like run of mine. Everything from egg size down, and tons of fines.
It burns good, and the price is right, but the excessive fines make it a real dusty mess.

I noticed the nut coal was a little larger but I like that way and there are some fines but no more then any other coal
I may have to see if I can get from the breaker next time. I usually go to Superior, as it is closer, but I wanted to run up to Sherman’s since I’d never been there before.

I will be honest sherman has been working there butts off to keep up with demand for coal. I have noticed a little more fines in some of the sizes. I was just up last Sat to get some rice for me and they ended up breaking down but that was good because it gave them the chance to fix everything the right way. Scale lady said they got the piles cleaned up so little to no fines now. Same with the breaker to.
I had run over to superior for the first time and get a load of rice there.

Another successful delivery story, Aaron dropped off a full truckload at my house this past weekend, to a location a fair distance from the mine. Coal looks great, delivery was right on time, price was unbeatable, friendly dude. Thanks Aaron and Isaac!

I just want to report that Sherman coal is happy burning very slowly during this warm spell. 24 hour burns on a couple of shovels full digging in deep to get the bottom of the bin fines.
