Oil Buying Group
SAVE £££’s on Heating Oil
Part of Herts Community Energy – a simple, proven way for rural households to reduce costs by buying heating oil together.
💷 Save money on heating oil
The CDA Herts Community Oil Buying scheme helps households save money by combining orders and securing a lower bulk price. Members are notified when an order is being placed and simply reply with the amount they need.
Last year, members saved an average of £100 each.
“I have just saved over £313 on my first order with the scheme. I was a regular buyer with one supplier who would have charged me 19.89p per litre higher than the group price. Not a bad return for £24 membership.”
