The Power of Choice! With Daniels Oil Company....
2007-2008 Fuel Purchase Options are available now!
Option #1 Price Cap
Highly Recommended! This option is the best choice for fuel purchase decisions!
The pros of the plan are:
- If fuel prices rise, a maximum rate (cap) is in place to protect you against rising fuel bills at the same time gives you the benefit of being charged the lower price if fuel prices should fall. You are 100% protected against fuel price fluctuations.
- The cons of the plan are that this plan carries a small fee for the price protection.
- Payment can be made by pre-pay (with an addition per gallon discount) or monthly budget payment.
Option #2 Fixed Price
- This option is offered by many fuel dealers and allows you to purchase your entire annual fuel requirements at a “set price”.
- The pros of this plan are that it protects you against rising fuel prices and you know exactly what your fuel price will be for the season.
- The cons of this plan are that it offers no protection against falling prices. What this means is that you will be paying a higher price per gallon and you will not benefit from lower fuel prices should fuel prices fall.
- Payment can be made by pre-pay (with an additional per gallon discount) or monthly budget payment.
Option #3 Flexible Pricing
- This traditional purchase option allows you to pay the “daily” rate on day of delivery.
- Prices move throughout the heating season with market changes.
- The pros of this plan include the benefits of a steady or declining market, you get the advantage of the lowest fuel price.
- The cons to this plan are that there is no price protection (or cap) to protect against rising market prices and you could end up paying a higher fuel price.
Payment can be made per delivery with a prompt payment discount or on a monthly budget payment.
