Yes I buy my oil from them. They give me 10% off the total gallons if I pay within five days of delivery. Their techs are very good.

I paid $2.49 a gal. the other day when one of the guys at work thought paying $2.69 a gal. was a good deal. No service contract, they just know I bvuy all my oil from them and that is enough.

I pay 165 from the same company that sells the oil to me. It goes up every year, it used to be a lot cheaper.

worth it to have it done at least once a year, preferably in the off season (spring through early fall).

there's a lot of sludge in #2 heating oil to start with, and it just builds up in the tank, where it mingles with moisture and bacterial digestion. there are fuel additives that can thin it out, but it all builds up on the nozzles and filters.

cheaper to have a preventative cleaning than an emergent service call in the dead of winter at 2 a.m. the latter might cost a you a bit.
