How to Save on Propane and Fuel Oil

Are you looking to save money on your fuel bill?  Neighborhood Savings Group can help you accomplish this.

In comparing Neighborhood Savings Group and the average retail rates reported by the State of Vermont, propane members saved an average of $1.17/gallon. 

We have negotiated a fixed margin market rate for propane, fuel oil, and kerosene.  The pricing for all three products will be based off of our suppliers laid-in cost (what they pay to have the product delivered to their local facility) plus a fixed adder.  Based on this price structure, our rates as of 8/1/2016 are:

Propane:

0-399:          $2.19

400-899:      $1.94

900-1499:    $1.79

1500+:         $1.60

Fuel Oil:      $2.02

We also have a fixed pre-buy rate as an option to our members that is available until August 12th.  Members have the option to stay with a fluctuating market rate, or lock in to a fixed rate.  Email us for more details.

Pre Buy Rates are available

Fixed Pre Buy Rates are now available through Neighborhood Savings Group for propane and fuel oil!

Neighborhood Savings Group offers its members two price options:

1: a market rate structure

2: fixed pre-buy options

With our market rate structure, the rates are not fixed. The pricing for propane, fuel oil and kerosene are based off of our suppliers laid-in cost (what the supplier pays to have the product delivered to their local facility) plus a fixed adder. The benefit to this price structure is that you know exactly how much above the market you are being charged and that your pricing follows the market consistently. The prices are updated daily. If the market goes up $.10 your rate goes up. Likewise if the market goes down.

In 2015-2016, our propane members paid an average of $1.17/gallon less than the State of VT reported retail rate. Our fuel oil members paid an average of $.10/gallon less.

The fixed pre-buy is exactly as it sounds. You secured a specific number of gallons to be delivered to you at a fixed rate. No matter how high or how low the market goes, those gallons will be delivered at your contracted fixed rate. Participation is completely up to the individual member. If you choose to do so, you will be delivered at a fixed rate during the specified period and up to the specified number of gallons you commit to. Deliveries made outside of that period or any extra gallons delivered during that time frame will be billed at based on our market rate that day.

Fuel Savings

We want to share a very nice message a Neighborhood Savings Group member shared on Front Page Forum about her propane fuel savings. We encourage all of NSG members to do the same with their friends and family:

Fuel Buying Group Highly Recommended – Update!
JUDI K.,

“This will be the third year in a row that our household has used Neighborhood Savings Group to purchase our propane. We averaged around $1.80/gallon in the last 365-day period–and considering the severity of last winter and the prices, I think that’s a great deal, especially when you consider that the signup fee is only $39/year.

NSG is currently accepting applications for the 2015-2016 fuel buying year. NSG works directly with your propane provider and links to your account, so the price NSG members pay the day you get your delivery is the price you are billed. We’ve had no hiccups (unlike some we had when we worked with VHeat) and just love NSG. Plus, the company is woman-owned. We recommend them unqualifiedly.

NSG also works with fuel oil and kerosene companies–you can find all the details on their website:

You can also call them at 802.585.1063.

And no, I don’t work for NSG. I’m just a (very, very) satisfied customer.”

Getting ready for a new year!

We are in the process of finalizing the details for the 2015-2016 season.   Once this is complete we will open enrollment.  If you are a current Neighborhood Savings Group member, we will send you an email notifying you of this.
