Best place to buy lump

Options
For the last year I've stuck to frontier lump from BJs or Royal Oak from home depot, no other local options. Any thoughts or recommendations for buying lump online? I think 5 bags storage might be the most I can handle, so a pallet is out of the question.

    For some reason, I enjoy pulling into the garage and seeing a stockpile of rockwood.  Like they say, it's the simple things...

    Yep. I usually buy three bags and some accessories or spices to bring it up to the free shipping minimum.

    Really would help if you let us know where you are located.
    You can also add a general area to your signature line.

    I've been a straight BGE Lump guy (out of convenience of the store being near my house).  However, after reading this thread, I pulled the trigger on 5 bags of Rockwood from Firecraft.

    I have met and bought lump in a parking lot from a shady character in a F250

    Look around your city for BBQ supplies stores other than the big box stores.  I have found 2 places that sell Rockwood and their own brand.  I have found wood chunks at a small meat market.
