It is much more efficient to deliver to several addresses in the same community - companies can deliver more fuel in fewer trips so we get a discount and there are environmental benefits too.

Felmersham Oil Buying Group
|
Registration
|
| |
The Oil Buying Group is currently administered by Brian
Conibere. To join the group fill in this form with your details.
This scheme can include any residents within a radius of a few miles (eg. there are members in Souldrop) BUT Radwell also have a scheme, see below.
|
How it currently works
|
| |
Approximately monthly throughout the winter and once or twice in the summer Brian, the Oil Buying Group
Administrator, sends an email to members of the Group asking if they
wish to purchase oil. If you would like oil, then click on the link and complete the order form. Your
order is automatically added to the order spreadsheet and you will get an automatic email confirmation. Brian will advise the final price once the order is collated and submitted.
Please note:
The minimum order is 500 litre.
For a "top up" please overestimate the quantity - they will only deliver up to the amount specified.
Companies now also require payment by card before delivery.
If you have any questions about joining the group or need advice then please call Clive Just on 781967.

Radwell Heating Oil Group
|
Radwell also has a Bulk Buying Syndicate for Heating Oil which is
co-ordinated by John Nolan (781747 or email johnnolanradwell@gmail.com) but it is managed
differently to the Felmersham scheme.
Currently the Group has around 20 members who join together twice or three times a year to purchase oil in bulk and therefore get a competitive price. When an order is about to be placed residents are asked whether they want a set amount of oil (minimum 500 litres) or approximately how many litres they need; neither company does top-ups so in order to fill up your tank slightly over estimate. Generally 15,000 to 18,000 litres are ordered by the syndicate.
Each householder must provide payment details to the supplier (usually Conquest Oil Company or Barton Oil) by way of a credit or debit card and the correct amount is charged after delivery. It is reckoned that a saving of £50 a year can be obtained from the average bill by buying in bulk. New members, who live in Radwell, are welcomed and should contact John either by email or telephone.
