Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For U.S. households heating with number two heating oil, choosing which of the 2308 heating oil companies that serve U.S. can drastically impact the cost of home heating.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who can afford a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system pick one of the 861 “full-service” oil companies that serve U.S.. Full service companies such as Hoffman Fuel Company Of Danbury or Westmore Fuel Co Inc offer homeowners annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic oil delivery and boiler repair. With an automatic fuel oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s fuel oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The household 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 looking to save money. With discount oil companies, in exchange for lower prices, you monitor the number two 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.

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.
