Budget Billing

Take Control of Your Heating Costs with Budget Billing

The 2025-2026 Budget Billing Enrollment Period is Open for Heating Oil & Propane

We know this past winter was an extra cold one, and for many homeowners and businesses, that meant higher-than-expected heating bills. (Some of our new customers even mentioned their old supplier couldn’t fill their tanks)

If you’re looking for a way to manage those costs more predictably, while taking advantage of considerable discount savings, Gerner Energy has an ideal solution—Budget Billing.

With Budget Billing, you can spread your heating oil and propane payments evenly throughout the year, avoiding seasonal spikes and making it easier to plan your budget. No surprises, no stress—just steady, predictable payments that keep your home warm and comfortable.

Why Choose Budget Billing?

Predictable Payments

Avoid large seasonal spikes and pay the same amount each month. You can even roll-in any of your recurring charges, such as HVAC service plans or propane monitoring fees.

Instant Savings - Up to $0.15 per Gallon

In addition to saving $0.10 per gallon on automatic delivery, we are offering a bonus $0.05 discount to our budget billing customers for the upcoming season.

No Hidden Fees

Our plan is straightforward, with no enrollment, management, or delivery fees.

Custom-Tailored Plans

We calculate your monthly payment based on a variety of factors, including your historical usage and projected fuel costs.

Paired with our automatic delivery service, you’ll never have to worry about running out of fuel. (Though we are offering budget billing to will-call customers this season)

Can't say enough about Gerner Energy. We had so many problems with a different heating oil delivery service. Gerner's customer service folks are local, friendly & helpful, and they actually pick up the phone (instead of being on endless hold). They were able to get our almost empty tank filled the same day. Highly recommend!

Predictable

Even payments throughout the year regardless of time of deliveries.

Worry Free

Don't worry about running out of fuel, we have you covered.

No Surprises

There are no enrollment or monthly management fees - you simply pay the competitive price for the oil you use. (While saving on every gallon delivered)
