Douglas Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For Douglas families heating with number two heating oil, selecting which of the 30 heating oil companies that serve Douglas plays a big role in determining how much money is spent on heating each winter.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who want a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 10 “full-service” oil companies that serve Douglas. Full service companies such as Al's Oil Service or RiteWay Heating Cooling & Plumbing Inc offer customers annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic heating oil delivery and boiler repair. With an automatic heating oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s 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: also referred to as “COD Fuel” or “Cash Heating Oil” companies, discount oil companies are for homeowners who are looking to save money. With discount oil companies, in exchange for lower prices, you monitor the heating oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order either when the level runs low or just before a major snowstorm. Examples of 2 Douglas cash heating oil companies serving Douglas include Red Star Oil Co and Superior Oil Co Inc.
