Rhawnhurst sits between Castor Avenue and the Pennypack, north of Cottman — twins and rows on quiet streets, with the park along its northern edge. It is one of the newer parts of the older northeast, built mostly in the 1940s and 50s, and it has less oil heat left than any of its neighbors.

How our trucks get here
Deliveries into Rhawnhurst run off Castor Avenue, Roosevelt Boulevard, Bustleton Avenue, Rhawn Street, Holme Avenue, Welsh Road, Solly Avenue and Ryan Avenue.
Straightforward compared with Oxford Circle or Tacony: most houses have somewhere off-street for the truck to work from. The streets nearest Pennypack Park end at the park rather than continuing, so approaching from the right end saves a lap.

Tanks in Rhawnhurst homes
Brick twins and short rows from the 1940s and 50s, with driveways or shared drives on many streets and garages under a good number of the twins. Tanks are in basements or those under-house garages, and the fill is usually on a side wall rather than the street front — easier work than the rows further south.

ZIP Code Tabulation Areas approximate postal ZIPs and don’t follow municipal boundaries, so these describe the ZIP rather than the borough or township exactly. The share heating with oil is left out here: the Census sample for this area is small enough that the published margin of error is wider than the estimate is useful, and we’d rather show nothing than a number we can’t stand behind.
Buying heating oil in Rhawnhurst
Rhawnhurst has among the least oil heat of any Philadelphia ZIP we serve. Built late enough to have gas from the start, it kept very little. If you are one of the households that did, you are in a thin market, and thin markets are where a price sits unchallenged for years — which is the entire reason this page publishes 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 Rhawnhurst?
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 Rhawnhurst — common questions
Do you deliver heating oil in Rhawnhurst, Philadelphia?+
Yes, to 19152. Bustleton above it is 19115 and Oxford Circle below is 19149 — both also served, each on its own ZIP and its own price.
How much oil heat is left in Rhawnhurst?+
A very small minority, and among the lowest of any Philadelphia ZIP we serve. The sample is too thin for us to publish the figure itself.
My tank is in the garage under the house. Does that work?+
Yes, and it is common in the Rhawnhurst twins. A garage tank with an outside fill is one of the simplest deliveries there is; just make sure the fill is not blocked by a parked car.
Is 19152 priced differently from Oxford Circle next door?+
It can be. Every ZIP is priced against what is actually quoted there rather than against a northeast average, so neighboring ZIPs can differ on any given day.
What is the minimum delivery in Rhawnhurst?+
100 gallons, as everywhere in Philadelphia. Most tanks are 275s, so a fill from low runs about 180 to 220.
