I wasn’t in but the delivery was made…
I wasn’t in but the delivery was made as promised. Well in advance of the “delivery by” date quoted on ordering. And the delivery driver wrote a lovely message on the delivery note thanking me for clearing access to the tank! I thought this was a normal/required thing to do - but it was nice of him to thank me. Marks Southern Fuels out as a happy company that cares for its customers. Thank you.

Always highly recommend!
It's great you can get an instant quote online. Can order straight away and given a delivery window. Our deliveries have always been quick and despite our difficult driveway, your drivers navigate it so well. Drivers have always been polite and quick when delivering. If we ever have a query or a problem, there has always been great communication with the office staff who are helpful and prompt. Will continue to use Southern fuels and always recommend to people who have asked.
