Oxford Circle takes its name from the traffic circle where Oxford Avenue meets Roosevelt Boulevard, and the neighborhood around it is about as densely built as Philadelphia gets outside the old city — nineteen thousand households in two and a half square miles, nearly all of them in rows.

How our trucks get here
Deliveries into Oxford Circle run off Roosevelt Boulevard, Cottman Avenue, Castor Avenue, Frankford Avenue, Oxford Avenue, Levick Street, Harbison Avenue and Bustleton Avenue.
Density is the whole story. The blocks are long, the streets are narrow and every curb is taken by evening, so a truck needs to know where it can legally stand. Which side of the house your fill is on genuinely determines how the stop is made.

Tanks in Oxford Circle homes
Brick rowhouses, block after block of them, mostly 1920s to 1950s, with porch fronts on some streets and flat fronts on others. Cellars throughout, and where oil remains it is a 275 down there with the fill on the front wall or the side. Parking is on-street everywhere.

Buying heating oil in Oxford Circle
Oxford Circle is 610 of 19,436 households on oil, about 3.1%. The share is ordinary for the northeast; the density is not, and that matters — a driver can serve a great many stops here in a morning without moving far, which is the kind of route that makes a competitive price possible rather than theoretical. 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 Oxford Circle?
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 Oxford Circle — common questions
Do you deliver heating oil in Oxford Circle, Philadelphia?+
Yes, to 19149, covering Oxford Circle, Summerdale and the Lower Mayfair blocks. Rhawnhurst above it is 19152 and Wissinoming below is 19135, both also served.
How many homes here burn oil?+
610 of 19,436 occupied homes, about 3.1%. In a ZIP this dense that is several hundred houses within a short drive of each other.
There is nowhere to park on my block. How does the delivery work?+
The truck stops as close to level with your fill as it can and runs hose from there. It is the standard arrangement on these rows — a note about permit parking or a blocked curb is what prevents a second trip.
My fill is on the front wall by the steps. Is that normal?+
Entirely, on this kind of row. Just tell us which side if the house is an end-of-row, because that is where drivers most often have to guess.
What is the smallest order for an Oxford Circle rowhouse?+
100 gallons. A 275-gallon cellar tank run low takes about 180 to 220, so the minimum is rarely the constraint.
