Needham Energy has invested in state of the art technology and sophisticated computer software that allows us to accurately predict oil delivery schedules.

Guaranteed Oil Supply
Needham Energy customers with good credit standing do not have to worry about oil supply. A secure supply of oil is a necessity for us New Englanders especially during the cold winter months. Not all oil dealers ensure that you receive a steady supply of oil when you need it. Most C.O.D. (Cash on Delivery) and Discounters do not guarantee oil delivery and have no obligation to keep your tank filled. These companies are often operated by one or two people and if they are too busy, or labor is scarce, or they are on vacation or just don’t feel like delivering to you that day, they won’t! Protect yourself and your family — don’t get caught in the middle of the night in the dead of winter without oil. Call Needham Energy today!
Payment Options
Budget Program
The price of oil is influenced by many factors and price can fluctuate significantly in a matter of hours (see what impacts the price of oil). The volatile nature of the heating oil market and seasonality of oil expenses pose a significant challenge to monthly financial planning. In order to reduce the impact of high winter heating bills, Needham Energy offers some flexible payment options.
Credit Card Payments
Needham Energy offers a convenient automatic credit card option. Upon delivery/service, we can automatically charge the credit card on file, saving you time and postage. We accept MasterCard and Visa. For security purposes, please call us at 781-453-9500 to set up this option.
