Hanson Fuel

Hanson Fuel is a Hanson, MA heating oil and propane dealer that's been running, by its own account, since 1979 — family owned, now also branded Hanson Energy, delivering heating oil, propane, kerosene, diesel and coal alongside HVAC installation and service. The Google reviews on file split sharply across the last several years. In an October 2021 review, one customer said the company had been reliable for three years running; a February 2023 review praised helpful, professional staff and good pricing. But a recurring complaint runs through the same history: in a February 2024 review, a customer said Hanson Fuel delivered — and charged for — more oil than was ordered, more than once; an October 2023 review named specific office staff as rude; and an October 2021 review said the company promised priority propane delivery during storms and didn't follow through when asked. The Better Business Bureau carries Hanson Fuel at an A+ grade, and its listed services extend to tank removal, heating system installation, and septic and excavation work. Given the repeated billing complaints, it's worth confirming the exact quantity and price of a delivery in writing before it arrives.
