Okay. First the snow, now the cold. Winter really is here. Have you established a relationship with a heating oil delivery outfit yet? Now is the time. We highly recommend that you find one that fits your needs, is responsive and reasonably priced. While we obviously hope you pick us the important thing is to pick someone and stick with them. Don't wait until the last minute and then call around looking for the best price. You will likely wind up cold and disappointed. And don't forget - sometimes what looks like a great price has some "hidden" costs like environmental charges or taxes and delivery fees that are not explained in the advertising. Or, like Local Pride, the posted price may not show all the discounts that are available. Did you know that the price we post does not include the twenty cents per gallon you can save by going on Automatic Delivery, having Automatic credit card billing and being a senior or veteran? Compare that price to what's out there. (Plus we're really good at what we do... :-) )

Winter is here! First snow of the season, and it is shaping up to be a decent sized one. Because of this, we are closing our office at noon today. Stay safe out there, and we'll see you all tomorrow!

Hi everyone. As some of you may have heard, Cloudlfare is currently experiencing widespread, global internet outages. Unfortunately, our system is one of the ones affected. As such, we currently have no way to schedule deliveries. We are still here answering the phones and taking names and numbers to return calls to schedule deliveries, but bear with us, as we have no idea how long this will last. Thanks for understanding, and stay warm!

June 2nd 1995, we opened our doors and collected our first dollar. 30 years ago. Can you believe that? We can’t! In honor of those 30 years, we would like to extend a special offer to you, the people who have made it all possible.

For the next 30 days:
-Order 150 gallons of fuel and get 30 cents off per gallon. Our normal minimum requirement of 100 gallons stands, however, if the 150 doesn’t fit, the rest of the money will be available as a credit on your account to use for your next delivery.
-If you are interested in PreBuy, we are also offering 30 cents off our PreBuy price, when purchasing over 300 gallons.

When placing the order, you must mention this post, so spread the word! Call, or stop by, the office today! And thank you for your continued business.

SEASONAL OIL DRIVERS!
Spring is here! Now what? Many of you have summer jobs to return to and that’s good. The home heating oil industry relies on seasonal drivers to make it work. What are your plans for next season? If you like the job - and the pay - consider stopping by our office in Rochester now to get on board for next heating season. Seasonal jobs usually start around September/October and run until April/May. A year round position may also be available. We have a great team and a friendly, customer – focused workplace. Check us out - You’ll like it here!

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Local Pride. We appreciate your business.

November is just about here. One more warm spell blast from the past and it's chillin' time. We've been lucky with the weather and prices have been mostly good. The world situation leads to a bit of a yo-yo on pricing but we try to avoid knee-jerk reactions - things tend to settle out. Of course lack of demand gets the discount companies cutting each others' throats for sales. We've never played that game. We're the cheapest anyway. Didn't you know?

So "cash" price today is $3.099/gallon. Several of the discounters are $2.999. Are you a senior or military? $3.049. Automatic delivery? Take ten more $2.949. Put a credit card on file? Here's five more. $2.899.

How do you like that?

There is still some quality Summer left - if the rain lets up - but it won't be long before we have to prepare for the cold. Part of that task around these parts is making sure we have a full crew of delivery drivers. If you or a friend know anyone who is looking to join a fun and easy-going local business come on down or send them our way.

Here we go. Hate to bear bad tidings but prices are heading up. 35 cents in two weeks and no sign of stopping. Ugh... ☹️
