As we make our way through the dog days of August here in NJ, nudging our thermostats to the left as we attempt to shrug off all that heat and humidity, buying oil to heat your home is probably the last thing on your mind.

Which is exactly why it should be.

OK, we’re not channeling Yogi Berra here (although it would be appropriate, since the Yogi Berra Museum is right here in the Garden State). What we mean to say is that if you put off buying your heating oil until late September or October (or even later), you’ll be joining the thousands of Sussex County home and business owners who all need fuel at the same time. All that demand could (and often does) cause heating oil prices to rise – which is why buying your fuel now should be on your mind! Makes sense, no?

As it happens, heating oil prices are down about 20 percent from this time last year –another reason to get your order in early.

Another way to save: Capped Price from Fredericks Fuel

Of course when it comes to heating oil prices, nothing is certain, since so many unpredictable factors influence the cost of oil (weather and the global economy, to name two big ones).

That’s why Fredericks a Capped Price Program to keep heating bill surprises to a minimum. Here’s how it works:

• You buy your heating oil now with a credit or debit card at a cost of$3.20 a gallon ($2.95 plus a 25-cent-per-gallon nonrefundable program fee); the program fee makes it possible for your delivery price to go lower than the $2.95 capped price if market conditions permit. You can save an additional five cents per gallon if you pay with cash or check, bringing your price down to $3.15 per gallon.
• If at the time of your oil delivery our price is lower than the capped price of $2.95 per gallon, you will be charged the lower price. If the market price is higher than $2.95 per gallon, you will not pay more than that for your heating oil. It’s a win-win for you!
• There are no storage fees, no commodity fees, and no penalties for the program

Our Capped Price Program can be combined with our monthly budget plan to make your heating bills even more predictable in the months ahead.
