Could be, try this site, it's good but the price is online ordering only you won't get the same price when ringing.

I bought heating oil from these guys last april.

www.unitedwesave.ie

They were cheaper than any other quote i received.
They operate by negotiating a bulk discount from suppliers.
I paid upon delivery and i assume the supplier paid a commission to the intermediary.
Anyway, i was happy with the price i got.

The link above is only a guide.

I'd call about and haggle for a price.
Without trying to sound like a smart arse do a little bit of work yourself and you are bound to get a better deal:)

Got a fill today (1000ltrs Kero)

Texoil gave the best price after some haggling @81.5c/ltr, but as usual all companies are giving similar prices, around the 82c/ltr mark.

Top/Tedcastles in Lough Atalia Road in Galway charged me 87cent a litre a couple of weeks back . . . and that was for an order of 500 litres. Had used Geoghegan Oil before they were taken over and found them okay pricewise but their new owners are a rip off. Won't be using them again. People I know got lesser amounts of oil around the same time for 82cent a litre.
