    Heating oil price

    Has anyone been able to buy it at close to what's on Boiler Juice's chart? (If I read it correctly, the price chart includes the 5% vat.)

    https://www.boilerjuice.com/heating-oil-prices-england

    I bought some this week, and best price I got locally was 95p/L. Whereas, on Boiler Juice it's 85p.

    Did you order through boiler juice, or some other way?

    Also, prices vary day to day, so if you're comparing today's boiler juice price with last week's direct quote, you'll get differences, in the same way you'll get differences based on volume and urgency.

      Just rang around a few local suppliers. When I bought some in November there was also a 10p difference.

      I guess I'm just a bit sceptical that buying through them is that much cheaper.

        Do you buy cat-litter at the same time?

          Had 500l delivered last week for £409.5 = 0.819. I use the Oil-Club. Saves money by grouping local orders.

              OK, so boiler juice was 10p cheaper but your skeptical that when you got a quote from them it was 10p cheaper?

              If you want to find out the price for a local delivery from boiler juice, you go on to their website and put in your requirements, including your postcode and an email address. They then give you local prices based on how quickly you need it delivered. The price they quote may not be the national average from the page you linked to.

              You can use them or if your local community has an oil club, try that: https://www.oil-club.co.uk

                Bought last week from home fuels direct and paid 80p / litre all in. found them cheaper than boiler juice and others. Always scan a few sellers as price moves around a lot

                  That's a good price.

                  Ours is probably more expensive because it's Cornish Heating Oil.
