Maine Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For Maine families heating with oil, selecting which of the 132 heating oil companies that serve Maine is an important decision.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who prefer a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system pick one of the 19 “full-service” oil companies that serve Maine. Full service companies such as Alfred Oil or MA Haskell Fuel Company LLC offer families annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic heating oil delivery and furnace repair. With an automatic oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s heating oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The family 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 homeowners who are looking to save money. 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. Some of the 2 Maine cash heating oil companies serving Maine include EMERY MILLS ENERGY INC and Integrity Oil.
