I cancelled my subscription with the oil company after they continued to gouge us at the price. COD is cheaper and there is now a smaller minimum requirement for delivery gallons.
That said, there is a gas station less then 10 miles away from the house that sells off road diesel, AKA #2 heating oil. It is usually a lot cheaper than even COD. I realize that the COD price also includes delivery etc..
I would like to fill my own tank when the need arises. But doing it in 5 gallon jugs would take forever and I would also need said jugs specifically for diesel. Does any one do this? Can you post your solution? I was thinking 55 gallon drum and hand crank or pump, but the weight of 55 gallons might prove to be too heavy for me to wrangle to the fill port.
Thanks
Dave
