Tanks in Ambler homes
A dense Victorian and early-1900s borough core — much of it originally company housing — surrounded by post-war and later suburban development on much bigger lots. That split matters for delivery: the borough is tight and old with basement 275s, the townships are open with 330s.

Buying heating oil in Ambler
Ambler is the second largest oil market in Montgomery County at 1,825 homes, and it has the split that makes comparison shopping worthwhile: a compact borough where a dealer can do many stops quickly, attached to spread-out townships where they cannot. You are quoted one ZIP price either way, so which side of that line you live on decides whether you are the profitable stop or the expensive one. Prices move daily with the wholesale rack, which is why the number above is today’s and not last week’s. Local dealers compete on this page, so the lowest price is always at the top — we don’t sell placement above a better price.
How much oil do you need in Ambler?
Order a dollar amount, a number of gallons, or ask for a fill — whichever way you actually think about it. Tell us your tank size and what the gauge reads and we’ll warn you before you pay if the tank won’t take it all. You’re charged only for the gallons that actually go in, and if it takes less, your price per gallon doesn’t go up.
Heating oil in Ambler — common questions
How many homes in Ambler heat with oil?+
1,825 of 11,907 occupied homes, or 15.3% — above the 14.0% average across our delivery area, and the second largest oil market in Montgomery County after Lansdale.
Does the Ambler ZIP cover more than the borough?+
Yes, considerably. 19002 spans 20.2 square miles across Upper Dublin, Whitpain and Lower Gwynedd, including Broad Axe. All of it is served.
What is the asbestos history I hear about?+
Keasbey and Mattison manufactured asbestos products in Ambler for decades, and the borough grew around the works. It is the reason the older housing is dense company-built stock rather than the suburban pattern around it.
What tank should I expect in an old Ambler house?+
A 275 in the basement, often reached by narrow stairs. In the township developments a 330 is more usual, sometimes in a garage.
Which pricing zone is Ambler in?+
Montgomery, which carries the largest distance offset we publish. The figure on this page already includes it.
Can I get same-day delivery here?+
Occasionally. It is a long run, and the badge on this page tells you honestly whether capacity exists today rather than implying it always does.
Do you deliver to Broad Axe?+
Yes. Broad Axe sits inside 19002 and is covered at the same price as the borough.
My street in the borough is very narrow. Is that a problem?+
Rarely, but tell us if it is one-way or if parking makes it single-file. That note reaches the driver before he sets off, which is when it is useful.
Also in Ambler: oil burner tune-ups, chimney cleaning and automatic delivery.
