Springfield Township is farmland with four hamlets in it — Jobstown, Juliustown, Jacksonville and Arneys Mount — and almost nothing else. Fewer than four hundred households across twelve square miles, no town center, and the highest oil share of any place we deliver to in New Jersey: nearly half the houses burn it.

How our trucks get here
Deliveries into Springfield run off Monmouth Road, Jacksonville-Jobstown Road, Juliustown Road, Georgetown-Wrightstown Road, Smithville-Jacksonville Road, Saylors Pond Road and Springfield Road.
This is the hardest ZIP to find an address in that we serve. Houses are far apart, numbers are often not visible from a moving truck, and several properties are reached by a farm lane. Give the nearest crossroad and which side of it you are on; it saves a driver a lap of several miles rather than several blocks.

Tanks in Springfield homes
Farmhouses and hamlet houses, a good deal of it predating anything in the newer Burlington County townships, with later single houses scattered along the county roads between them. Tanks are frequently outside the house altogether — in a barn, an outbuilding or underground — and sized for a property that a gas line was never going to reach.

Buying heating oil in Springfield
Springfield is the most oil-dependent place we deliver to in New Jersey — 171 of 384 households, 44.5%, and 45.5% in 08041 alone. That is not a remnant, it is the normal way of heating here, because twelve square miles with four hundred houses on it was never going to get a gas main. It is also a long drive per stop, which is exactly the situation where a price quoted over the phone drifts upward and nobody checks it. 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 Springfield?
Order a dollar amount, a number of gallons, or ask for a fill — whichever way you actually think about it. You pay only for the gallons that actually go in, and if the tank takes less, your price per gallon doesn’t go up.
Heating oil in Springfield — common questions
Do you deliver heating oil in Springfield Township, NJ?+
Yes, to both of its ZIPs — 08041 and 08042 — covering Jobstown, Juliustown, Jacksonville and Arneys Mount. This is Springfield Township in Burlington County, not the Springfield in Union County.
How much of Springfield heats with oil?+
171 of 384 occupied homes, about 44.5%, and 45.5% in 08041 on its own. That is the highest share of any New Jersey ZIP we deliver to — nearly half the township.
My tank is in the barn, not the house. Is that a problem?+
Not at all, and it is common here. Tell us where it is and roughly how far from the road, because on a farm property the fill can be a good distance from the front door.
How do I make sure the driver finds me?+
Give the nearest crossroad along with the number, and say which side of the road you are on. Out here the next house can be half a mile away and the numbers are often not readable from a truck.
Is the delivery more expensive because Springfield is remote?+
The New Jersey zone offset covers the crossing and the longer run, and it is inside the price shown on this page rather than added at the door. There is no separate rural surcharge.
