    I didn't realize MWP still used that style of bag? In recent years, I've only seen the bag with the little cabin on the front. And the TSC bags of course...

    I see the same thing at mine. I bought 5 bags a couple of weeks ago and made them open a new pallet. The 3 open pallets sitting there had been exposed to rain.

    I can't get a pallet of pellets at Lowes that the fork truck driver hasn't stuck the forks into the bottom row of bags. Then I have to tell them how to load them on my trailer...If I have them put a ton in the bed of the truck they almost always bump into the tailgate! I would guess they don't get too much training!

    Ask them if they have the extended forks for the lift......TSC always switched to them for me when I bought pellets. Got the load slid right over the axle with little problem.

    They always use the extended forks, but in order to get 3 ton on at once they have to load the 1st ton then push it as far forward as they can get it. I bring 2 4x4's so they can push the pallet toward the front of the trailer.
