PAYMENT OPTIONS

At the time of delivery, our delivery driver will leave a metered delivery ticket / invoice and return envelope for your payment. 

This invoice will show:

Will Call Delivery (Customer Requested)

The customer is responsible for calling CES for deliveries.  IMPORTANT: CES must be notified 5 - 7 business days before the desired delivery date.  If you run out before we are in your area there are deliveries fees that will apply.  Delivery fees after hours and on weekend are more than during normal business hours.  There is a minimum delivery of 150 gallons or fill tank for those less than 150 gal. capacity.  Deliveries requested other than automatic "keep full" are subject to a $50 delivery fee.  We encourage all customers to go on Automatic / "Keep Full" deliveries and to use our convenient 12-month BUDGET PAYMENT PLAN, which will spread your bills out evenly.  If a customer runs out of gas the system must be pressure tested (leak checked) prior to resuming service.  This action is classified as a billable service call and will be charged our prevailing hourly rate during normal business hours and an overtime rate after normal business hours.  

Automatic Delivery

Deliveries are made on a period schedule or a degree day based system.  Automatic Delivery is a free service offered to all credit approved customers.  The service is merely intended to assist customers from running out of fuel.  Being on automatic delivery is not a guarantee of never running out of fuel.  There are many variables, such as increased fuel consumption, issues in unattended homes and inclement weather, which makes such guarantees impossible.

Our automatic delivery system is designed to deliver propane or fuel oil when your tank is approximately 35%.  We have the ability to track information that will affect the schedule of your delivery.  This allows you go always have gas when you need it!

Benefits of Automatic Delivery:

• No More Waiting
• No More Scheduling Deliveries
• No More Gauge Checking
• No More Out-of-Gas Situations
• Receive Additional Discounts when Enrolled
• Get Even More Protection with our Remote Tank Monitoring System

Balanced Budget Payment Plans

Smooth your bills over with 12 low monthly payments!

CES offers a convenient 12 month payment plans for our propane & fuel oil customers that allows you to spread the big heating bills out and has the added protection of having a capped or fixed price. 

We calculate your estimated consumption and determine your monthly payment amount. Our Balanced Budget Payment Plans will be adjusted quarterly to make sure you are paying the lowest possible monthly payment.

Our Balanced Budget Payment Plan customers have the choice of 3 different pricing options from  (May 1^st - April 30th)

Plan A:  “Balanced Budget Payment Plan with a “Fixed Price":

• Your price will be fixed for all gallons consumed for the entire budget season regardless of whether the market price goes up or down. 
   
• You will have 12 even monthly payments. 
   
• There is no fee for this plan. 
   
• Fixed pricing is available for propane only, not fuel oil.

Plan B:  “Balanced Budget Payment plan with a “Market Price”:

• All deliveries will be billed at the current market rate minus the $0.20 discount. 
   
• This plan uses the local market rate & does not offer any price protection. 
   
• You will have 12 even monthly payments. 
   
• *This is the only plan available for kerosene.

Plan C:  "Balanced Budget Payment Plan with a "Capped Price": 

• All deliveries will be at the capped price or the current market price minus the $0.20 discount, whichever is lower. 
   
• There is a cap fee of $0.12 per gallon for propane gas and $0.25 per gallon for fuel oil.  The non-refundable cap fee is worked into the budget. 
   
• You will have 12 even monthly payments. 
   
• If your usage remains the same as we've estimated for the last 2 years, your payment can only go down! 

Please make note of the following:

• The "CAP FEE" is a non-refundable fee for insurance that we charge the customer and pass on to our fuel suppliers.  CES does not profit on this fee; we merely take your first payments and buy "Put Option" Insurance on the NYMEX (New York Merchantile Exchange), to protect your gallons.  This fee is "Non-Refundable" and will be applied to your account upon enrollment.
   
• Any credits that you have currently on your account have been taken into consideration when calculating the monthly payment.  If for any reason you DO NOT want your credit used toward the plan, please tell one of our customer service representatives.
   
• If you currently have a balance on your account, you must pay that balance in full before you can start the Balanced Budget Payment Plan.
   
• Capped Prices are subject to change daily, call today to find out the current capped price.

Pre-Pay Price Protection Plans

Pay for all your fuel in advance for the season in order to get the best possible rate!

CES is proud to offer our program for two decades, saving our customers millions of dollars! 

We add your monthly gallon requirements with hundreds of other CES customers to purchase winter contracts in 42,000 gallon allotments.  This ensures we know EXACTLY what our costs will be months in advance.  (winter months are Oct 1st thru April 30th). 

Plan A: "Pre-Payment Protection Plan with a "Capped Price":   

• This plan comes with a capped price for gallons purchased that you use during the heating season, but offers the advantage of a lower price if the market drops during the heating season. 
   
• We contract for the actual gallons you'll need for the winter months ahead of time and then purchaseoptions on the NYMEX market that allows us to offer you a capped rate, but also the advantage of paying the local market rate if the price drops during the winter. 
   
• The capped price plan has a cap fee of $0.12 per gallon for propane gas & $0.25 for fuel oil.  This is really like paying for insurance that allows you to take advantage of the lower price if the market drops. 

Plan B: "Pre-Payment Protection Plan with a "Fixed Price": 

• This plan comes with a fixed price for all gallons purchased that you use during the heating season.  The price will stay the same regardless of the market price.
