How Princeton heats
The houses gas left behind
Princeton is mostly on gas now. 888 households still heat with oil, about 4.6%. Those are usually the houses a main never reached, plus the ones where the cost of converting never justified itself. A smaller market means fewer companies bother to route a truck here, which is the part that matters to you in February.
Newer builds, easier deliveries
Princeton has newer housing stock than most of the towns we serve, median build year 1982. Newer usually means a clearly marked fill, an accessible tank and a shorter stop, and short stops are how we fit extra drops into a day. It also means most tanks here have plenty of life left in them.

Per delivery, on top of the fuel. The fastest way to get a same-day drop without paying for one is to pay when you order, because a prepaid stop can fill a slot that opens up mid-route and a COD stop cannot.
