Avoid Running Out of Heating Oil or Propane This Winter

- 11:47 am - December 7th, 2021


As one of Virginia’s trusted fuel delivery companies, Parker Oil and Propane has homeowners’ best interest at heart. That’s why we’re here with some tips to help our readers avoid running out of fuel this winter.

Here’s the run down!

1.      Know how to read your fuel tank gauge

First thing’s first, make sure you know where your tank gauge is and how to read it. If you’re unsure, give us a call – we’d be happy to help!

2.      Regularly check the tank

It is especially important during the coldest time of the year to check your fuel tank levels on a regular basis. Make it a habit to check or even set a reminder on your phone!

3.      Watch the weather

Knowing when the temperatures are expected to drop or if a heavy snowstorm is in the forecast will give you ample time to order fuel so you have it when you need it.

4.      Don’t wait too long to order fuel

Plenty of us are guilty of letting our cars’ gas tanks run low. The risk is running out of gas before you reach the next gas station! Same idea applies to your fuel storage tank: If you wait too long, you may not have enough to make it until your next delivery.

5.      Sign up for automatic delivery

Prefer a hands-off approach to keeping your tank full? Sign up for automatic delivery and let us bring fuel to you when you need it without needing to check your tank levels or place an order.

With these tips – and Parker Oil and Propane as your reliable fuel provider – we’re sure you’ll enjoy ample comfort this winter season! Call or contact us online to learn more and become a customer.
