Purchasing Home Heating Oil - Strength in Numbers
September 19th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under
If you’re one of the unlucky home owners heating with oil this winter, here’s a way to fight back. Contact your neighbors and form a neighborhood buying group. The more people you have, the more oil you’ll need, and that will give you more negotiating power.
Many successful neighborhood oil coalitions have already been formed.
“A few years ago, Jan Fine helped organize families on his street in Weston into one oil buying group.” Last year we averaged about fifty cents per gallon savings over retail cost,” Fine told WBZ News in Boston.” So if you use a thousand gallons that saves you 500 bucks. Two thousand gallons - it saves you a thousand bucks. It’s quite a bit of money.”
Has anyone out there formed successful oil purchasing groups?
