It seems hard to think about winter weather during the dog days of summer. But now is a smart time to start thinking about managing winter bills. Especially because the things that affect heating oil pricing—crude oil, geopolitics, and the weather, are all unpredictable.
That’s why we offer several ways to help make sure you’re protected from price volatility. Think of it as a flu shot for heating costs: Even if prices do go up, you’ll be protected from big fluctuations, no matter which option you choose.
Take a look at these budget-friendly payment options to keep your heating costs from spiking:
Even when fuel prices are low, this plan is the most popular. That’s because our Monthly Budget Plan helps you to avoid unexpected high invoices, no matter how cold it gets or how much fuel you use.
We use an average based on your past fuel use to spread your costs evenly over 12 months, cutting winter bills nearly in half and making it easier for you to budget your expenses.
The point is to keep your fuel costs level and manageable, so even if we have a particularly harsh winter or prices spike, we’ll adjust your payments so you don’t get hit with a large balance in the summer. Likewise, if it’s a mild winter, we can adjust and reduce your payments: The point is to help you save while avoiding big fluctuations.
When you choose our Pre-buy program, you buy your all your heating oil or propane at the start of the season. This lets you take advantage of lower off-season pricing, and eliminates the worry about the price of fuel going up.
When you opt for this plan, you’re automatically enrolled in our Automatic Delivery service, which delivers even more peace of mind: You don’t have to remember to order heating oil or propane, and you don’t have to worry about running out.
Our Fixed Price Program for heating oil and propane is exactly what it sounds like: We agree on a fixed price ahead of the heating season and you’re locked in at that price. No matter what happens with fuel prices, your price won’t go over the fixed amount.
Whichever option you choose, letting the pros at Junction handle all your heating and cooling needs is a smart choice: You can count on us for reliable deliveries, superior service if you need repairs, and expert installations if you need to replace or upgrade equipment. And, no matter what happens with prices next winter, our price protection plans are designed to help you keep costs manageable.
