Gloucestershire has a significant off-grid population, particularly in its rural parishes and coastal villages where the mains gas network does not reach. Many of the older properties across the South West region - stone farmhouses, listed cottages and barn conversions - were built long before gas infrastructure arrived and continue to rely on oil as their primary heating fuel. Comparing suppliers is the most effective way to manage costs in this competitive market.
The average price today is 94.1p per litre for 500 litres, including delivery and 5% VAT. That is 0.3p above the current UK average, based on 8 suppliers quoting across Gloucestershire.
A 500-litre delivery in Gloucestershire costs approximately £494 today, including 5% VAT and delivery. Prices vary across suppliers, so comparing before you order can save a meaningful amount.

Most Gloucestershire suppliers deliver within 3-5 working days for a standard order. Some offer express or next-day delivery for an additional charge. During cold spells, lead times extend across the board - order when your tank reaches a quarter full to avoid being caught short.
Ordering 500 litres or more unlocks better per-litre rates than a 300-litre order. Comparing multiple local suppliers on the day you want to order, avoiding emergency deliveries (which cost 8-15p per litre more) and timing your order outside peak winter demand (October-February) are the most reliable ways to reduce your fuel bill.
Yes. Gloucestershire has a significant number of rural properties beyond the mains gas network that rely on oil as their primary heating fuel. This is particularly true in older farming villages, estate properties and countryside homes built before modern gas infrastructure existed.
Compare quotes from at least three suppliers on the day you want to order - prices can move several pence per litre week to week based on global crude oil movements. Ordering a larger volume (500L or 900L instead of 300L) and timing your order for spring or summer can also reduce the price per litre.
