Just wondering what the cost of 1000 lts of kerosene is on average,being quoted €610 today 20th SEP 2007 in the wicklow area, How does this compare with your's ?
 
500 lts in waterford cost me €285 about 2 months ago, so i presume €570 for 1000lts.
 
Shop around
I ordered kerosene at .58 on monday and delivered yesterday
it went up at the weekend but i rang 4 different oil companys and got the ones that had kept there prices down
 
Book online with Emo oil - always seems to be the best value in Dublin area.

Yesterday got an online quote by Emo for 1000 lts Kerosine of E625.50 delivered Meath. Went to local supplier who quoted E640 but reduced to E625.50 when I told him I had got a cheaper quote.
 
was there some sort of scheme where if you were a member you got a discount on various products incl. heating oil?
 
Prices change every week and tend to change on a thursday but the prices have not been changing quite as much as they were say a year ago. Generally they go in line with Petrol prices so if you see your pump prices going down then normally heating oil prices will generally go down as well and vice versa.
 
This may be a silly question, is oil cheaper to buy in the summer than the winter? I know in general the price has been rising some what over the past few years...
 
Living in Celbridge: Yesterday phoned a few places to quote for 1000ltrs Kerosene.

Celbridge Oil-648euro-price until this Sat
Mc Loughlins-Newbridge-598euro
Capital Oil who have a Dublin and Kildare phone number on their flyer and when I called the Dublin number they told me to try the Kildare number as I would get a cheaper quote-it turned out to be598euro which we went for in the end.

NO - because prices often go up in the summer as the YANKS who are one of the biggest consumers use more oil/petrol for their cars etc which often leads to higher prices. Remember given we do not produce our own oil we are reliant on the world market prices.
 
When its summer here its winter in the southern hemisphere, granted I would say northern hemisphere is usually colder and more densly populated. Bigest problem of late is the huge advances in commercialism in China and India, hence huge additional demand for oil.

just got oil of glen fuels in gorey today , seem to be cheapest in wexford, 310 for 500 litres and 620 for 1000 litres
 
thats more than €100 difference between caveat and ted on 1000ltrs, can this be right? 10c per ltr seems a huge gap
