Salem Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For Salem homeowners heating with number two heating oil, picking which of the 22 heating oil companies that serve Salem makes a big difference.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who value a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system choose one of the 3 “full-service” oil companies that serve Salem. Full service companies such as Palmer Gas Co Inc or B & H Oil Co offer families annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic heating oil delivery and heating system repair. With an automatic number two heating oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s number two 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: Often called “COD Fuel” or “Cash Heating Oil” companies, discount oil companies are for households who are on a budget. With discount oil companies, in return for better prices, you monitor the oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order either when the level runs low or just before a major snowstorm. A few of the 2 Salem cash heating oil companies serving Salem include McLaughlin Oil and Rochette's Oil Service Inc.
