Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company

For U.S. households heating with oil, selecting which of the 2280 heating oil companies that serve U.S. can drastically impact the cost of home heating.

Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who prefer a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 848 “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 oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s heating oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The customer 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 households who are on a budget. 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 you're running low. Some of the 2 U.S. cash heating oil companies serving U.S. include Aldin Associates LP Inc and Alliance Energy LLC.

The Heat Fleet Enables Homeowners to Price-Shop on Every Order

Most oil companies purchase oil through 22,000-gallon fixed-price contracts and then sell that oil over the following days. Because oil prices fluctuate rapidly, the company offering the best price today may not have the best price in a month when you place your next order. Heat Fleet’s deal board makes it easy for you to price-shop and find the best price for each order.
