During September, ordering heating oil may not be on your mind. However, pre-purchasing your winter supply is an excellent investment, and there are a number of advantages to buying now. Below, you’ll find a few of the main ones. 

Why You Should Pre-Buy Heating Oil

1. Savings

There’s an obvious surplus of heating oil in the warmer months, which is why it’s often cheaper, especially compared to winter when it’s in high demand and oil companies increase their prices. Pre-buying will get you locked-in pricing and the best deal, and you’ll also have ample time to create a budget for the amount you need. With maximum savings, you can put your extra money to use on holiday get-togethers or a winter vacation.

2. Assurance

You don’t want to run out of heating fuel during winter, as it can be dangerous to live in an unheated home. Pre-buying means the oil delivery company will have all the business handled ahead of time so that no matter what, you’ll receive your needed supply without any issues. You’ll know your heating needs are handled, and you can be confident that there won’t be any surprise costs during winter.

3. Avoiding Busy Season

Winter is the busy season for heating oil companies, and you don’t want to get stuck waiting for an oil delivery. Pre-purchasing helps you stay ahead so that no matter what, your needs are fulfilled. This is invaluable should there be a heating oil shortage in your area or a colder-than-normal winter.
