Essex Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For Essex families heating with oil, selecting which of the 46 heating oil companies that serve Essex plays a big role in determining how much money is spent on heating each winter.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who value a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system select one of the 17 “full-service” oil companies that serve Essex. Full service companies such as Absolute Oil or Scott Energy Co Inc offer households annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic oil delivery and heating system repair. With an automatic heating oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The homeowner 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 fuel oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order when you're running low. A few of the 2 Essex cash heating oil companies serving Essex include Maria's Oil and North Shore Heating Supply Co.
