The UK typically sees spells of adverse weather, particularly during the winter months. From storms to snow and ice or even periods of heavy rainfall, all of these conditions can pose problems to heating oil deliveries. Regardless of whether you live in a rural or urban area, having home heating oil delivered during bad weather can be challenging. Fortunately, however, there are ways that you can prepare for such eventualities to ensure you have a consistent supply of heating oil to hand. How Does Bad Weather Impact Heating Oil Delivery? Home heating oil deliveries can be impacted in multiple ways during times of extreme weather conditions: Driver challenges: Snow, heavy rainfall and high winds can all make it tough for drivers to safely deliver fuel. Hazards as a result of extreme weather, like fallen trees and flooding, can also lead to access difficulties. Higher fuel prices: Demands for heating oil tend to rapidly increase during the colder months, which can drive the price up. Supply chain interruptions: Poor weather conditions can also impact manufacturing and deliveries higher up the supply chain. For example, low temperatures can cause issues for oil refineries. How to Prepare for Bad Weather Whilst Living Off-Grid While you may well run into issues with having home heating oil delivered, especially if you live rurally, there are several ways that you can plan ahead to ensure that your supply doesn’t run out in the event of a delivery failure. Order Ahead of Winter Schedule your oil delivery for early autumn to avoid running out of fuel in the worst of the cold months. Not only will you save money by ordering early when demand isn’t as high, you’ll also guarantee yourself a cosy winter period. Install an Oil Monitor In order to avoid running out of oil unexpectedly and needing an emergency delivery during bad weather, consider having an oil level monitor installed. Monitors like the Magnus Monitor are simply attached to the top of your storage tank and monitored remotely - all at no extra cost to you. This allows you and your supplier to keep an eye on the amount of fuel left in your tank and schedule a delivery in good time.
