Its website says the Rand family has operated the company for four generations, has provided home heating oil since 1947, offers 24-hour emergency service, and is merging with Anderson Fuel effective August 31, 2026. Customers describe dependable deliveries, responsive technicians, long relationships, prompt annual service, and helpful explanations. Reviews from 2021 through 2024 include praise for technicians' experience and cleanliness, a 40-plus-year customer relationship, and quick callbacks; one review praises a driver for taking time to show a child the delivery truck. There is also a negative 2023 review alleging harassment over an unpaid balance, so prospective customers should ask about payment-plan terms and account policies. Confirm how the announced Anderson Fuel merger affects contracts, delivery arrangements, emergency coverage, and service-team continuity before enrolling or renewing. **Strengths:** - Delivery reliability — long-term customers praise dependable service - Technician responsiveness — reviews mention prompt callbacks and emergency help - Heating expertise — customers cite experienced, punctual, clean service **Concerns:** - Account policies — one review alleges harassment over an unpaid balance - Merger transition — confirm service continuity after Anderson Fuel merger **Where sources disagree:** - BBB says the firm was established in 1941, while the website says home-heating-oil service since 1947. - Google reports 4.4 stars from 13 ratings; the cited written reviews are mostly positive but include a two-star complaint. ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Rand-Handy Oil Company is based at 900 Webster Street in Marshfield, Massachusetts. _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](http://www.randhandy.com) — “Rand-Handy Oil Company presents itself as a family-owned Marshfield heating-oil company providing automatic oil delivery, 24-hour service, h…” - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ma/marshfield/profile/fuel-oil/rand-handy-oil-company-inc-0021-9817) — “BBB identifies Rand - Handy Oil Company, Inc. at 900 Webster St in Marshfield as a non-accredited, unrated fuel-oil business engaged in reta…” - The website says the Rand family has owned and operated the business for four generations. _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](http://www.randhandy.com) — “Ownership (self-reported): Owned and operated by the Rand family for four generations” - The website says Rand-Handy has provided home heating oil to South Shore Massachusetts residents since 1947. _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](http://www.randhandy.com) — “Company history (self-reported): The site says Rand-Handy has provided home heating oil to South Shore Massachusetts residents since 1947.” - The business provides heating oil delivery, heating equipment service, boilers, and residential air conditioning. _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](http://www.randhandy.com) — “Rand-Handy Oil Company presents itself as a family-owned Marshfield heating-oil company providing automatic oil delivery, 24-hour service, h…” - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ma/marshfield/profile/fuel-oil/rand-handy-oil-company-inc-0021-9817) — “Services offered (Better Business Bureau): retail sales of home heating oil, boilers, heating and air conditioning units” - Google shows 4.4 stars from 13 ratings, including seven five-star reviews, one four-star review, and one two-star complaint in the cited record. _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=Rand-Handy%20Oil%20Co%20Inc&query_place_id=ChIJ8X47QcWm5IkRx06zFlH2Ip0) — “Google: 4.4★ from 13 ratings” - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURQamYyendnRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x9d22f65116b34ec7!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgIDPjf2zwgE%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ The whole Rand handy team is awesome!
