Oil Companies
Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For U.S. families heating with fuel oil, selecting which of the 2297 heating oil companies that serve U.S. is an important decision.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who can afford a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system pick one of the 858 “full-service” oil companies that serve U.S.. Full service companies such as Hoffman Fuel Company Of Danbury or Westmore Fuel Co Inc offer families annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic oil delivery and boiler repair. With an automatic heating oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s fuel oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The family does not need to monitor the level of the oil tank or place individual orders.
Discount Oil Companies: Often called “COD Fuel” or “Cash Heating Oil” companies, discount oil companies are for customers who are on a budget. With discount oil companies, in exchange for lower prices, you monitor the oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order when you're running low. Some of the 2 U.S. cash heating oil companies serving U.S. include Aldin Associates LP and Alliance Energy LLC.

Short Term Trends
U.S.’s overall oil consumption fluctuates annually primarily depending on how cold each winter is. As the temperature outside gets more chilly, homes’ HVAC systems need to burn increasing amounts of heating oil to maintain the temperature that the thermostat is set to. Last winter, the average outside temperature in U.S. was 34.3°F, which was 3.3°F colder than the prior winter's average outside temperature.
U.S. Average Winter Temperature
| Heating Season | Average Temperature |

| 2024 - 2025 | 34.3° F |
| 2023 - 2024 | 37.6° F |
