For those seeking the most affordable heating oil, timing your purchase is crucial. Summer is typically the best time to buy home heating oil, as demand tends to be lower during this period, leading to reduced prices. On the other hand, the highest demand for heating oil is during the winter months, which often results in higher prices.

At WCF Chandlers, we pride ourselves on offering transparent pricing to all our customers. We believe in complete honesty and transparency, which means the domestic prices you see on our website are the prices you pay.
Various factors can influence heating oil prices. These include the price of crude oil, the cost of refining, and the global supply and demand for the product.
The price of crude oil and refining costs have been on a downward trend since the beginning of the year, as refineries have improved their operational efficiency. Additionally, the current balance in global supply and demand for heating oil plays a role in keeping prices relatively stable.
If you're wondering how much domestic oil currently costs, it's important to note that prices can fluctuate. As of 15th September 2025, the average price of heating oil in the UK was around 56.5ppl + VAT. This represents a decrease in price compared to January 2025, when it was at a high of 66ppl + VAT.
