New Jersey Homeowner’s Guide to Selecting an Oil Company
For New Jersey families heating with heating oil, picking which of the 54 heating oil companies that serve New Jersey can drastically impact the cost of home heating.
Full Service Oil Companies: Homeowners who can afford a “set-it-and-forget-it” heating system choose one of the 6 “full-service” oil companies that serve New Jersey. Full service companies such as Lawes Home Comfort or Globe Petroleum offer households annual contracts which consist of a combined package of both automatic fuel oil delivery and heating system repair. With an automatic fuel oil delivery contract, the company tracks your home’s fuel oil consumption and makes deliveries when your tank is running low. The household 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 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 you're running low. Examples of 2 New Jersey cash heating oil companies serving New Jersey include Jacquar Fuel Oil and Globe Discount.
