Price Protection Plans

Secure your price and know your cost with a Cap or Fixed Pricing plan.

There is one question to answer when thinking about winter heating costs…

 

Do I want to know my total oil expense before winter, or am I comfortable with fluctuating prices resulting in unknowns costs? 

 

To know your cost, choose a price protection plan. If you’re comfortable having your delivery price go up and down without limits and unknown costs, a variable / market price plan may be suitable.

 

It’s impossible to say which plan will result in the lowest overall cost. Each plan has advantages and disadvantages depending on the movement of the underlying market price.

 

We’ve found that those with a cap price protection plan are most satisfied as they’re assured of their costs instead of being victim to the ever changing heating oil commodity price.

 

Contact us and we’ll help you determine which plan is most suitable.

Cap Price Plan

  • You are always protected with this plan! Avoid price spikes.
  • Be safe from rising prices as you’ll never pay more than your cap or ceiling price.|

  • Avert price increases! You’ll be free from skyrocketing prices as your price is fixed.
  • Ability to plan! You’ll always pay the same price no matter if the market price goes up or down.
  • Freedom during winter! Paying in advance means you’ll never have to think about money for oil once cold weather arrives.

Fixed Price Plan

Pay our lowest market price at delivery. There are no upper or lower price limits. Choose automatic or will call delivery with this option. If you do not sign up for a price protection plan, you’ll automatically receive delivery at our variable / market rate. We recommend setting up an EZ payment plan with this option.
