Wakefield Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For Wakefield homeowners heating with oil, choosing which of the 12 heating oil companies that serve Wakefield makes a big difference.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who want a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 3 “full-service” oil companies that serve Wakefield. Full service companies such as A-Star Oil LLC or Guardian Fuel & Energy offer homeowners annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic oil delivery and furnace 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 customer does not need to monitor the level of the oil tank or place individual orders.
Discount Oil Companies: also referred to as “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 either when the level runs low or just before a major snowstorm. Some of the 2 Wakefield cash heating oil companies serving Wakefield include JC Tefft Fuel & Propane Inc and Guardian Discount.
