Baltimore County Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company

For Baltimore families heating with fuel oil, picking which of the 36 heating oil companies that serve Baltimore 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 choose one of the 234 “full-service” oil companies that serve Baltimore. Full service companies such as JJ Adams Fuel Oil Co LLC or McComas Fuel Co offer customers annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic fuel oil delivery and boiler repair. With an automatic heating oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s heating oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The customer 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 on a budget. With discount oil companies, in exchange for lower prices, you monitor the oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order when you're running low. Examples of 2 Baltimore cash heating oil companies serving Baltimore include Alliance Fuel Company and Warthen Fuel Co Inc.
