Medford Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For Medford homeowners heating with fuel oil, selecting which of the 156 heating oil companies that serve Medford makes a big difference.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who value a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system choose one of the 79 “full-service” oil companies that serve Medford. Full service companies such as Firemans Fuel or Keohan Fuels & Transportation Inc offer customers annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic heating oil delivery and HVAC repair. With an automatic heating 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 families who are on a budget. With discount oil companies, in exchange for lower prices, you monitor the heating oil level in your tank, and you place an oil order when you're running low. A few of the 2 Medford cash heating oil companies serving Medford include Ranco Enterpises and Maria's Oil.
