Heating Oil Delivery to Elkins Park, PA

Heating Oil Delivery in Elkins Park, PA

Fox Fuel delivers home heating oil throughout Elkins Park and the surrounding parts of Cheltenham Township, including the Melrose Park line, the Old York Road corridor, and the streets running back from Ashbourne Road. Elkins Park is in the 19027 zip code, nine miles down Old York Road from our Willow Grove office. We have a steady customer base across this neighborhood.

The housing stock in Elkins Park ranges from the historic homes near Beth Sholom Synagogue and Curtis Arboretum to the larger singles around the Elkins Park train station. Many of these homes have larger oil tanks, often 330 or 550 gallons, because they were built before natural gas service reached the area. We deliver to all of them.

Automatic and On-Call Delivery

Most Elkins Park homeowners use our automatic delivery service. We monitor your usage, watch the weather, and dispatch a truck before you run low. You never have to check the gauge or call ahead of a freeze. If you prefer to schedule your own deliveries, will-call service is also available. Call (215) 659-1616 and we will get you on the schedule.

Price Protection Programs

Heating oil prices in Cheltenham Township change with the broader market. We offer four programs to help Elkins Park homeowners plan ahead. The Fixed Price Budget Plan locks in one price for the heating season and spreads the cost into monthly payments. The FuelSaver Budget Plan combines monthly budgeting with a price ceiling. The Prepay Plan lets you pay up front for a set number of gallons. The SmartPay Cap puts a maximum on your price but still lets you save if the market falls. We will walk you through which plan fits your home when you call.

Service for Older Elkins Park Homes

A lot of the homes around Beth Sholom Synagogue and the older Elkins Park streets were built before 1940. The heating systems are often original or near-original, and the tanks are sometimes buried or sometimes located in basements that are tight for a fill hose. Our drivers and service technicians work on these systems every day. If you have an older home and you are not sure whether to stay with oil or switch fuels, call (215) 659-1616 and we will give you an honest read on the system. We do not push sign-ups and we do not push tank replacements that are not needed.

Elkins Park has a few streets where parking is tight and our larger trucks need to plan around the route. We track this on our dispatch maps, so when you sign up we already know whether your address is one we route earlier in the morning or later in the day to avoid traffic.
