Athens Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For Athens households heating with heating oil, choosing which of the 16 heating oil companies that serve Athens plays a big role in determining how much money is spent on heating each winter.
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 9 “full-service” oil companies that serve Athens. Full service companies such as C A Albright & Sons LLC or Persico Oil Co Inc offer homeowners annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic heating oil delivery and boiler repair. With an automatic oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s fuel oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The client 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 families who are budget-conscious. 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.
