The Coal Trucks are located north of the Fishing Guild and west of McGrubor's Wood. At the coal truck mining area, there are 18 coal rocks and 3 carts. This is considered one of the most efficient ways to mine coal. Several loads of coal ores can be stored in any of the carts. Once the carts are full of coal, they then can be removed from any of the carts, but the most convenient location is a building with a mining symbol over it which is in the north-western part of Seers' Village. Note that the coal trucks are members-only. There is also a log balance (shortcut) just east of the coal trucks which can be used at level 20 Agility to cross over towards McGrubor's Wood. (Otherwise, you have to go around the Fishing Guild. You could also use a Camelot Teleport.) It is also noted that if you wear any kind of Varrock Armour (1,2, or 3.), you may mine an extra coal.
Originally, up to 120 coal ores could be stored at one time; however, the 10 February 2009 news article told of improvements to the rewards for the Seers' headband obtained as a reward from the Seers' Village Diary. The original article showed that greater coal storage was now possible when the headband is worn, as shown below:
| Headband worn | Coal Truck Size | Profit from full truck | Full truck + inventory |
|---|---|---|---|
| None | 120 coal | 24,000 coins | 29,600 coins |
| Seers' headband 1 | 140 coal | 28,000 coins | 33,600 coins |
| Seers' headband 2 | 168 coal | 33,600 coins | 39,200 coins |
| Seers' headband 3 | 196 coal | 39,200 coins | 44,800 coins |

[edit] Trivia
- There's a glitch caused when storing coal in the carts with the Seer's headband worn. If the carts are filled beyond the normal 120 limit when using the headband (e.g. 140 with Seer's headband 1), and the headband is taken off, when searching the carts, there will be only 120 coal in the cart. This has not been fixed.
