Marsh Fuels has reported a decline in heating oil orders in Berkshire and Hampshire as customers delay refills, hoping for lower prices. With colder weather approaching, the firm warns that waiting too long could lead to running out of oil or facing higher costs.
UK heating oil prices have surged by about 75% since late February due to international conflicts. Experts suggest that current high prices may persist until spring, making timely purchases crucial for consumers to avoid potential shortages during cold snaps.
As colder weather approaches, customers should monitor their heating oil levels closely. Delaying orders could lead to shortages or higher costs. Watch for potential price fluctuations and consider purchasing soon to avoid being caught unprepared during cold snaps.
