Bulk oil buying scheme from ORCC Trading Ltd.

Office hours: Monday - Thursday 9 am to 4.30 pm - Direct telephone number: 01865 733214.


Over the last few months our members have saved around £50 compared with the market average price for 1000 litres of heating oil (a staggering £120 against the highest prices).  That is the power of bulk oil buying.

All you need to do to take advantage of the scheme is to pay an annual membership fee of £20, which will cover as many oil orders as you need during the course of the year. 

To be included in the next month's order round send your membership application and annual fee to ORCC Trading Ltd at least one week before the order deadline.

Bulk oil ordering dates

Final deadline for ORCC Trading Ltd to receive all orders for inclusion in the Bulk Oil Order is 9.00 am on Wednesday 23 May and Wednesday 27 June 2012.

Monthly bulk oil order price

As at 30 April 2012:

Member price (kerosene):  56.8 pence per litre 

Highest price (for 1000 litres) quoted by a supplier: 71p per litre

Average price (1000 litres) quoted by suppliers: 62p per litre

(All prices +5% VAT)

How it works

  1. Contact your local co-ordinator and let them know how much oil you want to order. Please allow approx. ten working days for delivery of oil from the monthly bulk oil order date.  (In most cases delivery will be sooner.)
  2. Once a month your co-ordinator lets us know the total oil needed from your area.
  3. At the end of each month, the bulk oil purchase is negotiated by our oil buyer.
  4. We then tell your co-ordinator when to expect delivery and how much it will cost, and he or she passes the information on to you.
  5. You pay the supplier direct for the oil they deliver.
