There aren’t many certainties in life, but Medway Oil & Propane can say with confidence that if you use heating oil to heat your home here in Eastern Massachusetts, you are going to want to be well aware of how to order the fuel when the time comes. This will help you prevent a fuel run-out, which nobody wants – trust us on that one. If you get to this point, not only will your home be cold and uncomfortable due to a lack of heat, but your heating oil tank can also become badly damaged.
Considering how important it is to have an adequate supply of heating oil on hand, let’s review exactly how a homeowner can go about placing a fuel order.
There are a couple of different options when it comes to how you can order heating oil from Medway Oil & Propane.
All of our customers can enroll in our automatic delivery plan. This option allows us to track your heating oil levels for you with the help of cutting-edge software that looks at your past fuel consumption as well as current weather conditions. Based on this information we then schedule a delivery accordingly and well before your fuel levels get too low. This service pretty much eliminates you having to worry about and remember to check the gauge on your heating oil tank, which can sometimes be quite the undertaking if your tank is outside and the weather is less than ideal. The best part is that we offer automatic deliveries at no additional cost!
You can also be a will-call customer and contact us directly to schedule your fuel delivery. We recommend getting in touch with us before your tank gauge registers less than a quarter full to prevent a fuel run-out.
Medway Oil & Propane wants to go above and beyond to help keep your Eastern Massachusetts home warm and comfortable all winter long, which is why we offer our customers 24-hour no-heat emergency heating oil deliveries.
If you are a will-call customer, you should plan to order your heating oil before winter officially hits. This will help ensure that your heating system is ready to take on the cold weather, offering peace of mind to any homeowner. On top of that, fuel prices are generally lower during the warmer months, and it is easier to schedule a delivery.
Will-call customers will also need to know how much heating oil they are going to use on an annual basis before placing an order with their provider.
You can get a good sense of how much fuel you will run through by looking at your past heating oil orders and heating bills. You can also ask a neighbor whose house is similar in size to yours how much heating oil he or she typically uses a year. Just remember that exact heating oil usage varies from household to household and can change from year to year depending on the weather.
If you are looking for heating oil for your Eastern Massachusetts home, look no further than Medway Oil & Propane. In addition to heating oil deliveries, we can also handle heating oil tank installations.
