Good Company, delivers on time. Only problem was they didn’t leave a delivery note, the only way to check quantity delivered. Phoned office and got a half hearted apology and said quantity would be sh... See more

Reliable service
It was really helpful that the oil delivery turned up within two or three days of my order. I didn't particularly like the fact that we had to order a minimum of 500 liters, because we are moving soon, and I would have preferred not leaving a load of oil for the buyers, expensive as it is at the moment. That said, we have been with Southern Oil for about 15 years, and they have always given us a good service.

Very good I took two drums and they filled up for me for the farm but unfortunately this may be the last time because they are shut Saturdays now, because I work all week a Saturday was good for me it’s very hard to find a place that’s open Saturday to fill up with red diesel new laws making it very difficult for the small farmers

Thank you - AB
very helpful delivery service
The delivery came within the expected timeframe. However I had not been informed of the day as requested so the tank was still locked. Fortunately I was at home and Gary the driver was most helpful and friendly in the pouring rain, and opened and relocked the tank for me so I did not have to go out at all.

Good company, always friendly and helpful and usually best price. Highly recommended if you need fuel of some sort, rubbish if you want hot cross buns.😁

Hey Mike,
