Heating Oil Check: The Lowest Posted Brookfield Price Is $5.39 a Gallon

Heating season is here, and the price spread on heating oil is wide enough to matter. A check of 16 dealers serving Brookfield found only one that posts a usable Brookfield price on its own website: Omni Energy, at $5.39 a gallon for orders of 100 gallons or more, or $5.34 a gallon on automatic delivery.

Against the state average of about $6.15 a gallon, the Omni Energy price works out to roughly $114 saved on a 150-gallon fill. That is the difference between a posted, checkable price and the state average — not a quote for a specific home, since delivered prices vary by order size, delivery terms, and timing.

The rest of the field illustrates why the check was worth doing. The big full-service names in the area do not post prices on their own sites at all, so a homeowner comparing rates has to call each one. One other dealer posts $5.54 a gallon, but Brookfield delivery could not be confirmed on its own site, so it is not ranked here.

The practical takeaway for anyone topping off a tank before winter: a posted price you can verify beats a price you have to chase, and the gap between the lowest posted price and the state average is large enough to cover a meaningful part of a fill. Prices move with the oil market, so a price checked this week is a snapshot, not a guarantee — but it is a solid starting point for the first call.
