About PayLessForOil.com

Before PayLessForOil.com as you know it today, there was Home Town Fuels, a heating oil delivery company located in Holyoke, built on a simple idea: save homeowners money on their heating costs. At that time, PayLessForOil.com was the website of Home Town Fuels. It’s where our founder, Chris Chase, got his start in the industry. His father, Steve, brought him into the family business, specifically to run Home Town Fuels, and those years shaped everything that came next.

In fall of 2007, Home Town Fuels was merged into the recently formed full-service family oil business, Fuel Services Inc. Fuel Services had offices located in Westfield, MA, as well as at 95 Main St in South Hadley, MA.

Chris saw that many homeowners didn’t want or need a full-service fuel provider and set out to build a true e-commerce heating oil business focused on simplicity, value, and convenience. He already had the perfect domain from Home Town Fuels: PayLessForOil.com. With this, the online, on-demand extension of Fuel Services was born and became the same PayLessForOil.com you know today.

The website was launched, PayLessForOil.com put its first truck on the road, and we delivered our first two orders totaling 625 gallons on October 3. The response was immediate, and the growth followed quickly.

Tremendous growth for the family business led to the decision that Paylessforoil.com should be transitioned from just a website service of Fuel Services to its own corporation. By the end of the year, the business was all under PayLessForOil.com, Inc.

PayLessForOil.com, Inc. moves to its new headquarters in Westfield, MA.

Quickly outgrowing our Westfield space, we move to a new office and garage location in Springfield, MA.

FSi Oil and Propane Inc (formerly Fuel Services Inc) experienced enormous growth in its propane and HVAC operations. This led to the decision that our customers would best be served if we offered specialized, dedicated companies for our 3 main services: heating oil, propane, and HVAC. This was a very special moment for Chris and his family.

To start, a new company, Clean Climate HVAC, headquartered in Broad Brook CT, was formed to specialize in HVAC services.

Additionally, FSi Oil and Propane, Inc. was renamed to FSi Propane, Inc., with the belief that the business would specialize in propane delivery and propane tank installations. FSi Propane moved to the former Springfield location of PayLessForOil.com

And with that move came the final piece of the puzzle: PayLessForOil.com, Inc. was renamed FSi Oil Services, Inc. and would operate as two heating oil divisions, PayLessForOil.com and FSi Oil Services. This company is a specialized heating oil and oil burner service company, running out of our 95 Main St, South Hadley, MA location.

For PayLessForOil.com, this meant coming home! Reuniting with a full-service oil company and returning to our South Hadley office and terminal locations brought us full circle.

FSi Oil Services serves over ten thousand customers and delivers tens of thousands of gallons daily, all powered by a dedicated, customer-focused team. We're still proudly offering our PayLessForOil.com services as we have for the past 15 years, while also serving thousands of happy clients who choose our full-service option.
