Delivering heating oil right to the front doors of homes across Inverness

Our customers’ convenience is at the heart of everything we do. We deliver heating oil straight to your door no matter where, in Inverness, you live. We even have a fleet of baby tankers that allow us to access homes that would typically prove difficult to reach. Simply ask us about them when you call.

All we ask is that we can access your property and that your heating oil tank is safe.

From the time you place your order, it’ll usually take about 7-10 days for your heating oil to arrive.

If demand for heating oil in Inverness is particularly high, perhaps during one of the city’s seasonal winter snaps, you may find there’ll be slight delays in your delivery day, but we’ll do everything in our power to keep you informed and ensure that there is as minimal interruption to your heating oil supply as possible.

Where you can though, we do recommend topping up your tank before your supply is completely exhausted to ensure you’re never left out in the cold.

You check where your fuel is, on its journey to you, by using our online order tracker.

Receiving and paying for your heating oil

Scottish Fuels can provide you with all your heating oil needs. We offer a range of delivery options as well as a choice of ways to pay to help you manage your heating oil requirements and your budget. 

You can choose standard Kerosene or our premium kerosene Glowmax  – which could help to reduce build up in your boiler and boost efficiency.

How long does it take for the heating oil to reach your home from our depot?

When you place your order, it usually takes between 7-10 days for your heating oil to arrive. From time to time, when demand for heating oil is very high, for example in very bad cold weather snaps, it can sometimes take a little longer.

Ask your local team when you call and they will give you a delivery time and make sure you’re happy with it before you place your order. As a guide, always try and order a heating oil top up before your tank is almost empty so you don’t get caught without heating.

Once you’ve ordered you can track where your fuel is in the journey to get to you.

When should you replace your heating oil tank?

Whilst most heating oil tanks will last around twenty years, as they age the likelihood of problems increases. It’s important to check your tank regularly, especially in advance of any heating oil deliveries.

If your tank is over 10 years old, it’s even more important to check for any signs of damage, or for risks of leaks and spillages.

If your heating oil tank is old, damaged and needs replacing, our expert tank team are here to guide you through your options. We have a dedicated team of experts and a wide range of tanks to choose from.

A telemetry system can be fitted wirelessly to your bulk fuel storage tanks, enabling remote fuel monitoring across sites and providing real-time ‘always-on’ reporting. This offers visibility of when stocks are running low so you can re-order fuel before it runs out, in just a few simple clicks.

Check for signs of damage, such as bulges, cracks, rust, discolouration or major dents. These are signals your tank is weakened.
