How does the heating oil supply chain work?

The journey of your heating oil from start to finish

Where does BoilerJuice fit into the heating oil supply chain?

BoilerJuice is the number one online heating oil marketplace, and we’re proud to say we’ve had our online business since 2004. Our priority is getting a great price for heating oil top-ups by searching a range of supplier prices in local areas, saving customers time and money.

Even though we don’t pick up, store or deliver the oil, we still fit in the heating oil supply chain. Our role in the supply chain sits between ‘Heating oil suppliers picking up the oil from the depots’ and ‘Heating oil suppliers delivering heating oil to homes.

How does pricing work on BoilerJuice?

We wanted to share with you how the business works to help customers simplify top-ups and help save more on their heating. 

1. Suppliers pick up the oil from the depot.
2. The 150+ suppliers on the BoilerJuice platform will enter their prices onto our website. (BoilerJuice does not set the prices.)
3. Heating oil homes get a top-up quote at BoilerJuice.com.
4. We’ll search heating oil prices in your area from a range of suppliers. 
5. We’ll show you the best price and delivery options.
6. Once your order is complete, your information and the delivery time frame get sent to the supplier. 
7. The supplier delivers the heating oil to the customer’s tank.
