Fuels – FAQ
- Regular “Off the Truck”
- This is the cost of the product directly from the driver, which fluctuates based on the market.
- Budget Pay
- Customers can choose to enroll in budget payments. Our team will calculate your usage for the last year, and set you up on a monthly payment schedule to cover the deliveries that you typically receive. You pay the same amount every month, and you never need to worry about late fees or missing a payment!
- Auto Pay
- Customers with Auto Pay can sign up to have payment submitted through bank information or a credit card. Payments can be scheduled for specific days of the month, a set time after a delivery, or on the day that the payment is due. Accounts that set up automatic payments for within 10 days of delivery receive a discount of 5 cents per gallon!
- Online Pay
- Our Customer Portal has a convenient option to pay online! Just use your most recent statement or sales ticket as reference, or pay any amount you prefer. You can pay with VISA, MasterCard or Discover, or ACH information
- Prepay
- Funds may be put on a customer’s account to use towards deliveries as prepayment. This is a popular option for contracting fuel, as prepayment will get you the seasons best price. Make sure to look for the prepaid price on your seasonal contract offerings.
We recommend that you regularly check your tank(s) and once the level is down to ¼ you should contact us to get on the delivery schedule. We also offer tank monitors that allow us to remotely monitor your fuel levels and delivery when you need it. If you are interested in monitoring your tank, feel free to let us know.

- Fixed Route Deliveries
- Qualifying customers can elect to keep accounts on a Regular Fill status. This allows our drivers to fill tanks regularly while they drive their routes. It greatly reduces the risk of running out of fuel when it is needed most.
- Will Call
- A customer can choose to be a will call customer. Will call customers will purchase fuel at market-price at the time it is ordered. Customers using this plan must keep in mind the price of fuels fluctuate daily similarly to how gasoline pricing fluctuates at the gas pump. This plan requires the customer to self-monitor their tank level(s) and call in giving our drivers enough time to fill the tank to avoid delays or additional fees.

Conservation is easy with home heating oil products. First and foremost, a well-tuned, well-maintained system uses less oil. Also, turn down your thermostat. Each 1 degree lower equals approximately a 3% annual savings, and an additional 1% if you lower it again overnight. Consider a smart thermostat. A smart thermostat can save energy by automatically adjusting heating. Reduce the setting whenever everyone is asleep or away from the home.
