Run out of Heating oil this winter? Here’s your solution…..

A common problem within the local area this useful blog may be helpful in the coming weeks.

We are all aware of the biggest disadvantage of heating oil. Take your eye off the ball and you end up with none, and you can't just put a coin in the slot to fire up the warmth. You have to wait until you can contact suppliers (office hours only) and then pray they can deliver quickly. 
But it's worse than that. Running out of heating oil can be embarrassing! It implies you’re not in control, or you have been careless, and then there's the feeling that you have to beg for help, not to mention the accusations of fault from within your own family.
If you have ever been in that situation, the good news is you are not alone. During winter months 3-4% of customers pay extra for urgent deliveries.
And technology isn't always the solution to this problem. A number of customers have reported empty tanks due to failed remote monitoring.

Help is at hand. 
A new venture, Same Day Services based in Writtle, near Chelmsford, enables you to collect 100 litres of heating oil within hours of realising you have no heating.
But here is the clever part. Your family need never know you have run out of oil. Just tell them the boiler has failed but not to worry, you are popping out for spare parts to fix it....which of course is perfectly true!
Now you’re a hero!
