West Oil Company

West Oil Company is a family-owned and -operated local oil company founded in 1949 by Edward and Dorothy West.  Their legacy of commitment to providing quality fuels and dependable service continues into West Oil’s seventh decade in business.  In 1984, Ed and Dorothy retired and sons Bob and Joe purchased the business from their parents, beginning the next generation’s leadership role while continuing Ed and Dorothy’s dedication to their customers. They, along with Bob’s wife Ann, continued to grow their customer base while earning the trust of more and more local homeowners and businesses.  In 1989, a state of the art 115,000 gallon fuel storage facility was built on Ashland Street in North Adams.  Six years later the next phase of expansion included a new 4,500-square-foot headquarters facility.

Automatic Delivery:

One of the benefits of a full service oil company is having the option to choose Automatic Delivery.  The biggest advantage of Automatic Delivery is that you do not have to monitor your oil tank for the next needed delivery.  Nowadays, families are constantly on the move and it is very easy to forget to check the level of your oil tank.  With Automatic Delivery we track your usage by our degree day monitoring system.  This system calculates when you will need your next delivery and will automatically generate a delivery ticket.  Selecting Automatic Delivery does not tie you into any fuel plans that we may offer, and pricing fluctuations in the market has no influence on our deliveries.

Will-Call:

Of course we are happy to serve all Will-Call customers as well.  Just make sure you have a properly working tank gauge so you do not risk running out of oil.  The best time to order oil is when your tank gauge reads between 1/4 to 3/8 full.  Our minimum delivery is 125-150 gallons depending on your location.  While we do our best to provide prompt service to all of our customers, you should allow us at least 2 business days for delivery depending on your location and up to a week for rural areas.
