## The honest read

Swanzey Oil is a heating-oil dealer whose website says the family has been delivering for over 40 years and describes the business as family owned and operated. The site lists a service area that includes Swanzey, Keene, Jaffrey, Peterborough and Hinsdale, and on its BBB profile the company describes distributing home heating oil, clear or dyed diesel, and gasoline to residential and commercial customers. Its BBB page is an A+, and on Google it holds 4.4 stars from 36 ratings.

A 2026 customer said the company came out fast for an emergency repair at a price they called very reasonable. That customer said that after Todd convinced them to use Swanzey Oil for oil deliveries, they showed up promptly and filled the oil tank. In a 2021 review, a customer described prompt delivery and said they were impressed with the furnace servicer. A 2021 customer said Max, who delivers their oil, brought them to the company. A 2022 customer said they had used Swanzey Oil for over 20 years.

A 2022 customer called the oil delivery dependable but said pricing on installation and repair services was not competitive. A 2023 customer said they paid for fuel and didn't get it, and that when the tank ran out the company told them it couldn't provide emergency service; that customer said the on-call worker was rude to their wife. In a 2024 Google review, a resident of a dead-end street complained that one of the company's drivers was speeding up and down it.

**Strengths:**
- Fast emergency repair — a 2026 customer said they came out fast
- Prompt oil delivery — a 2021 customer described prompt delivery

**Concerns:**
- Missed fuel delivery — a 2023 customer paid for fuel and didn't get it
- Repair pricing — a 2022 customer called installation pricing not competitive
- Driver speed — a 2024 reviewer said a driver sped down their street
