Chester Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company

For Chester homes heating with fuel oil, selecting which of the 9 heating oil companies that serve Chester is an important decision.

Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who prefer a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 3 “full-service” oil companies that serve Chester. Full service companies such as Patriot Discount Oil or Skylands Energy Service offer clients annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic number two heating oil delivery and boiler 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 families who are looking to save money. With discount oil companies, in return for better prices, you monitor the number two 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 Chester cash heating oil companies serving Chester include Hackettstown Corporation and Affordable Oil.
