Our Fixed Price, Pre-Buy Plan for Energy Co-op of Vermont Members
Our fixed price plan works well for Co-op members who want to lock in the price of their heating oil in advance and not have to worry about making additional payments. More than 150 Co-op members sign up for our fixed price pre-buy plan each year and receive these benefits:
How fixed prices work
- A fixed price. You buy at least 400 gallons of your heating oil in advance for a fixed price. No matter how high - or low - our oil prices go, your price won't change. Most of our pre-buy customers buy their oil in advance every year, knowing that by following this strategy they'll probably come out ahead more years than not.
- Automatic delivery. Our computer tracks your oil usage so you'll never run out. It's one less thing for you to worry about.
- Fewer bills. You make one payment, in advance. You make additional payments only if you use more oil than you pre-bought.
- Convenient payment choices. On-line payment, electronic funds transfer from your bank account, check or cash - which ever works best for you.
Please check our FAQs for more information, especially about what happens if you don't use all your pre-buy gallons, or need more than the amount you pre-buy.
Our fixed price plan is available from early summer through October each year.
