How we source prices

Where HeatPrice's dealer prices come from, how current they are, and why you should confirm with the dealer before you order.

Where the data comes from

No. I

HeatPrice.com collects pricing data from publicly available dealer listings. We list the dealers serving your zip code alongside the prices they publish.

How current the prices are

No. II

Prices reflect the most recent public listings we collected and may be days or weeks out of date. Each listing shows its own date, so you can see exactly how current it is before you rely on it.

Confirm before you order

No. III

All listings are unverified — always confirm the current price directly with the dealer before you order.

We don't broker or take payment

No. IV

HeatPrice doesn't facilitate transactions or take payment on behalf of any dealer. Ordering and payment happen directly with the dealer you contact.

Readers Ask Related Questions

Are the heating oil prices here verified?

No — prices are collected from dealers' public listings, not independently verified by us. A dealer can claim their listing to correct it, some listings may still be unclaimed, and you should confirm the price directly with the dealer before you order.

Why doesn't HeatPrice just sell or broker the oil?

A broker's markup and routing incentive are exactly what we exist to strip out — the moment we take a cut or steer your call, the price stops being neutral. HeatPrice just shows you dealers' own published prices so you can decide for yourself.

Does HeatPrice send my details to dealers or sell my information?

There's nothing of yours to hand over to a dealer, and we don't sell your information. That's because there are no lead forms or call routing — you contact dealers yourself, so we never collect your contact details in the first place.
