Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For U.S. homes heating with number two heating oil, choosing which of the 2298 heating oil companies that serve U.S. can drastically impact the cost of home heating.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who value a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 859 “full-service” oil companies that serve U.S.. Full service companies such as Hoffman Fuel Company Of Danbury or Westmore Fuel Co Inc offer households annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic heating oil delivery and furnace repair. With an automatic fuel oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s number two heating 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: Also known by the names “COD Fuel” or “Cash Heating Oil” companies, discount oil companies are for households who are looking to save money. With discount oil companies, in return for better prices, you monitor the heating oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order when the oil gauge dips below a quarter tank. Examples of 2 U.S. cash heating oil companies serving U.S. include Aldin Associates LP and Alliance Energy LLC.
