About HomeFuels Direct
HomeFuels Direct was established in January 2008 by Christopher Bicknell and started trading on the 1st July 2008. The intention was to be a 'One Stop, Online Heating Oil Shop' and to provide an online service that is tailored around the consumer. From a consumers perspective the aim was to create a quick, convenient and pleasant way for heating oil consumers to order online and buy heating oil through a secure e-commerce platform as well as other related products and services 24/7 - 365 whilst always remaining very transparent with pricing.
The UK heating oil market prior to 2008 was old fashioned and clunky and did not like to bare-all so HomeFuels Direct decided to turn that upside down, strip everything right back and provide the same products and services as other suppliers, but at affordable prices whilst always remaining transparent with our prices. So if you live in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland you can benefit from the products and services that HomeFuels Direct provide.
HomeFuels Direct Ltd was acquired in October 2021 and is now a subsidiary of Certas Energy UK Ltd, a member of the DCC Group.

What Do We Do Differently?
More about HomeFuels Direct
At HomeFuels Direct we continually strive to progress and push the limits within the industry and we are very open to hear what you the consumer thinks, because it's you that helps us shape our business and the industry that we operate in, and this is probably why we are one of the UK's best rated online heating oil supplier. Although we are an online heating oil supplier, we also operate a UK based call centre for customers that prefer to speak to someone when placing an order.
We do our best to make the process easier for you. For that reason our website offers instantaneous quotes without having to input your name, email address or telephone number. We've also created a way for you to easily view the average heating oil price across the market! On a daily basis our Heating Oil Price Graph will update to show you market movements.
