Ongoing unrest in the Middle East, particularly involving Iran, has led to a sharp increase in crude oil prices worldwide. These increases are now impacting related fuels such as heating oil and gasoline, driving costs higher across the board.
We understand how difficult these sudden changes can be.
Fuel prices are closely tied to global crude oil markets, which means local providers have very little control over them. As our suppliers adjust their rates, we must also update our pricing to reflect these market changes. Please know that we only make these adjustments when necessary and remain committed to delivering dependable fuel service while keeping costs as manageable as possible.
As colder weather continues, we recognize the added pressure rising prices places on households. We encourage you to contact our team to learn more about flexible payment options and oil budget plans. These programs can help spread costs more evenly and make heating your home this season more manageable.
We will continue to monitor global developments and provide updates when appropriate. In the meantime, our thoughts remain with those affected by the ongoing conflict, including the service members and families impacted by it.
Thank you for your continued trust in our company.
