Buying heating oil in South East England

  • Fawley refinery near Southampton is the largest in the UK and supplies much of the south.
  • Traffic and labour costs tend to push margins slightly above the national average.
  • Older listed properties often depend on oil, so winter demand stays firm.

Before ordering, collect quotes from at least three local distributors and compare them with the estimate above. A quote within a few pence of our figure is usually reasonable; anything far higher is worth questioning. Our money-saving guide and cost calculator can help you decide how much to order.
