Reading Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company

For Reading households heating with number two heating oil, picking which of the 10 heating oil companies that serve Reading makes a big difference.

Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who are willing to pay a premium for a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 2 “full-service” oil companies that serve Reading. Full service companies such as Atlas Oil Company or Sauder Fuel offer families annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic number two heating oil delivery and boiler repair. With an automatic number two heating oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s number two 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 clients who are budget-conscious. 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 the oil gauge dips below a quarter tank. A few of the 2 Reading cash heating oil companies serving Reading include Eby Oil Inc Inc and Tropical Oil LLC.
