Most oil deliveries are made within 2-3 business days under normal weather and operational conditions. Please be aware that deliveries are scheduled on a first come first serve basis. If you are very low on oil, you can select our same day delivery or next business day delivery options for an added fee. Your delivery date will be stated in your confirmation email and a receipt will be left at your door by the delivery person. We make it easy to pay with your credit card or an EFT. You can also leave your payment in cash or by check or money order out the night before as our drivers often begin making deliveries at 5 a.m.
No. However, the driver must have ready access to your heating oil fill pipe, and you must have an operating vent alarm (whistle). Please shovel out your fill pipe during inclement weather so the driver has clear access. The driver will leave a copy of the delivery ticket, including the number of gallons delivered and price per gallon. The only case in which you’d need to be home is for a prime and start due to the fact that the driver needs access to your heating system.
In order to give you the lowest price, we require a minimum order of 150 gallons. If you receive a delivery of less than 150 gallons, there will be a $35 small delivery charge in addition to the price per gallon.
Yes! Oil Discounters gladly accepts debit cards; however, we have seen banks “hold” your pre-authorization. While we enjoy the convenience of debit cards, we want to alert you to this practice with some banks. Please check with your bank to determine how long authorizations are held.
Yes! When you place an order your information is stored in an encrypted format for your safety and security.
Your credit/debit card or EFT will be charged upon clicking the submit order button. If your tank takes less oil than originally purchased you will receive a credit refund within 7 business days to your credit/debit card. For Virtual Check/EFT payments, any remaining credit will be refunded within 30 days. Please be aware that additional time may be needed for your bank’s processing.
You may need to check your bulk/spam mail bin. Most email providers are similar: Check in your options/Anti-Spam or bulk email and change the settings. If this does not correct the issue you may need to contact the provider. In the meantime, please call 866-366-3191 or contact us online, and we will access your account for you.
If you receive the number of gallons you have ordered, there are no other fees. Our pricing schedule contains volume discounts, so larger deliveries receive lower prices. If your tank takes a smaller quantity than you ordered, your price per gallon may be higher. Our minimum delivery is 150 gallons if you receive a delivery of less than 150 gallons, you will be charged for a $35 small delivery charge, in addition to the price per gallon. We also offer same day delivery and next business day delivery for an added fee. If your tank is completely empty, you might require a prime and start. This service is $55 with an oil delivery and is an option when ordering.
Most likely it is because there was not enough room in your oil tank. Every tank is, or should be, equipped with a vent alarm (whistle). The driver must stop pumping oil when the whistle stops, in order to prevent a potential oil spill on your property. When the whistle stops there is always some space left in your tank. This head room is by design of the manufactures and is done for safety and environmental reasons. For example, a 275 gallon tank has a useable capacity of about 256 gallons.
You should not receive more oil than you ordered unless you authorized the additional gallons to be delivered. If you receive more gallons than you ordered, you should contact Oil Discounters by phone at 866-366-3191 or contact us online.
No, Monday through Friday are considered normal business days. However, during the heating season, don’t be surprised if you receive your delivery on Saturday or even Sunday.
We, at Oil Discounters ensure you that we do not sell or distribute our customer list.

Delivery companies plan their staffing, fuel supplies, trucks and other delivery assets to accommodate the demand for deliveries under normal conditions. When abnormal conditions occur, which causes increased demand and/or a slowdown in the company’s ability to operate in an efficient manner, delivery delays may occur.
