Tasmania has three pellet mills and you can buy wood pellets in Tasmania made by these mills at a number of retailers around the state. Prices will vary and have been increasing over the years since July 2023 when this post was made. However, expect to pay anywhere from $11.00 to $13.50 for a bag for pellets in Tasmania depending on the retailer and pellet brand. Below you’ll find a list of where you can buy wood pellets in Tasmania, the type of pellets and prices. Feel free to join the Facebook group listed below and let me know of any other places to buy wood pellets. Please remember prices below may change, so it is best to contact the retailer for current prices.
Here’s a quick list of where you can buy wood pellets in Tasmania. Keep reading to learn more about each retailer and pellet brands they sell:
- Mitre 10 – $13.45 a bag
- Bunnings – $13.45 per bag
- Pellet Fires Tasmania – $11.50 to $15.00 a bag
- IGA/Hillstreet – $13.xx a bag
Mitre 10 – Statewide
Oakdale hardwood pellets $13.45 a bag
Mitre10 stock and sell Oakdale hardwood pellets and being statewide they are possibly the most convenient way for people to buy wood pellets. However, prices may vary depending on which Mitre10 you go to as some have different owners. Some Mitre 10 stores near Hobart offer a pallet of pellets for much cheaper than other stores in Tasmania, but this does vary and you will need to ask in store. Some stores may also offer free delivery (again possibly south Tas only and only for a limited time) and you may also be able to use your Mitre10 rewards card to gain points and bring the cost down further.
Bunnings – Statewide
NSFP hardwood pellets $13.45
Bunnings stock NSFP hardwood pellets, essentially the same as what Mitre10 sells but in a different bag. Sometimes Bunnings will offer discounted pricing on 5 bags or more, so best to check and ask in store to see if they currently have any offers on bulk purchases. Like Mitre10, Bunnings is another convenient place to buy wood pellets because they can be found almost statewide. However, not all stores carry stock and pellet availability may change week to week..
Pellet Fires Tasmania – Launceston, Hobart
EcoPellets Premium blend $11.50
EcoPellets Pine softwood $15.00
Pellet Fires Tasmania services both Launceston and Hobart. They only sell EcoPellets which are currently the best value wood pellets on the market. Pellets are sold by the bag and no discount is given for buying in bulk. However, they have what they call the Pellet Club, which basically means 5% of pellet purchases are accrued as points and can be used to discount pellet heater servicing costs. Delivery is not available but they are happy for customers to arrange their own pickup and delivery.and they do not offer discounts regardless of quantity you purchase. PFTas is probably one of the most popular places to buy wood pellets due to how long they have been in business.
IGA and Hillstreet EcoPellets
EcoPellets Premium $13.xx
EcoPellets sell through a number of IGA and Hillstreet stores throughout Tasmania. Like Mitre10 and Bunnings it makes it a convenient way to buy wood pellets as IGA or Hillstreet are found throughout the state. The downside is pricing. Prices will vary from store to store but the further the store is from Lonnie or Hobart the higher it appears to be. Some stores offer a discount if buying a pallet, but again it depends and you will have to ask your local IGA/Hillstreet.
You can also buy a pellet heater in Tasmania from most retailers listed above (not all but most). If you don’t have a heater yet and looking for some recommendations, I created a top 5 pellet heaters in Tasmania and a best pellet heaters in Australia for people in other states. If you are in Tasmania you can see pellet prices updated daily at the Tasmania Pellet Heater Owners FaceBook group. If you live outside of Tasmania then see where you can buy wood pellets from the Australia pellet retailer list.
Tasmania Pellet Prices Update June 2025
There have been a few updates and changes in terms of pellet prices and pellet retailers in Tasmania. Bass Pellet Heaters in Launceston is no longer in business and thus no longer sell wood pellets. Prices at most if not all pellet retailers has increased slightly. If you see a good deal on pellets it may be worth buying in bulk as it looks like prices will continue to rise in the future.
