For Westchester residences heating with number two heating oil, selecting which of the 159 heating oil companies that serve Westchester is an important decision.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who want a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 2331 “full-service” oil companies that serve Westchester. Full service companies such as Superior Fuel Oil Inc or Action Fuel Oil Corp offer families annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic number two heating oil delivery and furnace repair. With an automatic number two heating 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: Also known by the names “COD Fuel” or “Cash Heating Oil” companies, discount oil companies are for customers who are budget-conscious. With discount oil companies, in exchange for lower prices, you monitor the fuel oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order when the oil gauge dips below a quarter tank. Examples of 2 Westchester cash heating oil companies serving Westchester include Emergency Services Fuel Corp and Prestige Oil Inc.
