Discount Fuel Oil
Discount Fuel Oil is the same fuel oil as all major oil companies use. The only difference is the price and delivery method.
For example: When you fill up at the gas station and you pump the gas yourself, you typically pay less at a self service gas station. When you go to a full service station, the price per gallon is much higher.
A full service oil company charges more because they are billing you for the oil instead of paying at the time of delivery. In the older days, this was okay, but nowadays most people use a credit card to pay for their oil. It doesn't make economic sense to pay an extra dollar per gallon for "convenient" billing. They may justify the extra money by offering you a monthly budget plan to make it easier to pay for your annual fuel usage. Budget plans typically cost homeowners even more money than the over-inflated prices over discount fuel. The average house on a budget plan uses 7% more oil than non budget customers (fact from one of the largest home heating oil company's in the country). Their study showed the overall increase in oil usage while on a budget plan. This was was due to the same monthly payment each month regardless of how many gallons were delivered.
When a homeowner is not looking at the bill or price per gallon on each delivery, they tend to keep the thermostat a little higher during winter, Their home is more comfortable, but they are using 7% more fuel due to it. At the end of the budget when it's time to reconcile it, this is when budget customers feel the pain. If oil went up during the heating season and their budget payment stayed the same, they must pay the difference at the end of the term.
Discount Fuel makes life easy and more affordable. The product is exactly the same. Both Discount Fuel companies and large full service providers all purchase fuel oil from the same locations. In that respect, paying more for the same product makes no sense. Some may argue that they are providing a service contract. In most cases the customer is paying for the contract so that is negated. Even if they provided a free service contract, paying over $1 per gallon more for the same oil is still not justified.
Discount Fuel provides homeowners so many choices and options that you won't get from full service oil dealers. The most important option is customer choice. You have so many local discount fuel oil dealers to chose from. Each one of them have a different price and delivery schedules. Why not choose what's best for you?
