Chester Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company

For Chester households heating with heating oil, choosing which of the 18 heating oil companies that serve Chester plays a big role in determining how much money is spent on heating each winter.

Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who value a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system pick one of the 5 “full-service” oil companies that serve Chester. Full service companies such as Royal Petroleum Inc or Wister Coal & Fuel Oil Co offer homeowners annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic heating oil delivery and boiler repair. With an automatic fuel oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s heating oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The homeowner 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 budget-conscious. With discount oil companies, in return for better prices, you monitor the oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order when the oil gauge dips below a quarter tank. A few of the 2 Chester cash heating oil companies serving Chester include Mauger & Company Inc and Brandywine Fuel.
