Out of Oil? Here’s What We Can Do

If you’re an existing oil delivery customer and run out after hours, here's what you can expect:

1. Call John Weidman & Sons

Let us know you're out of oil and without heat. We'll determine the appropriate next step based on your situation.

2. We Send a Technician

An emergency technician can bring approximately 20 gallons of heating oil to your home and help get your heating system running again.

3. Schedule Your Next Delivery

The emergency oil is a temporary solution. We'll return during regular business hours with a delivery truck to provide your full heating oil delivery.

Important: Our after-hours service is not a standard full-tank emergency fuel oil delivery.

It's designed to provide existing customers with enough fuel to restore heat until a regular delivery can be completed.
