Torresdale is the riverfront edge of the northeast, from Grant Avenue down to the Delaware, and it was country estates before it was anything else — Glen Foerd still stands at the end of Grant Avenue with its lawn running to the water. Behind it is Morrell Park and the post-war streets, and almost none of it burns oil.

Nothing difficult — driveways and wide streets almost everywhere. The riverside apartment complexes are the exception and are generally not oil-heated houses at all, so a delivery here is nearly always to a single-family address.

Tanks in Torresdale homes
A very mixed ZIP: a handful of surviving nineteenth-century estate houses near the river, large post-war singles and twins through Morrell Park and Academy Gardens, and riverside apartment blocks at Delaire Landing. Where a tank exists at all it is usually a basement 275 in one of the older singles.

Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2019–2023 American Community Survey 5-year estimates, and the 2023 ZCTA Gazetteer. 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 Torresdale
This is the thinnest oil market we serve in a populous ZIP: 35 households out of 14,111, two-tenths of one percent. Three ZIPs we cover have no oil-heated homes at all, but every one of them is tiny; Torresdale has fourteen thousand households and still almost no oil. Thirty-five houses in a ZIP of fourteen thousand. If yours is one of them you are almost certainly not being competed for, and the number on this page may be the first time in years anyone has shown you what the gallon is actually worth. 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 Torresdale?
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 Torresdale — common questions
Do you deliver heating oil in Torresdale, Philadelphia?+
Yes, to 19114. It is a very small oil market — too small for the Census to count with any confidence — but it is a served one, and the price is published before you order rather than quoted after.
Why is there almost no oil heat in Torresdale?+
Because nearly all of it was built or rebuilt after gas was available. Only a handful of the ZIP’s 14,111 homes burn oil — among the lowest of any sizable ZIP in our delivery area, and too few for the Census to put a dependable number on.
Is it worth you sending a truck for so few houses?+
Yes, because the truck is already passing. 19114 sits between Bucks County and the rest of the northeast on the same run, so a Torresdale stop is not a special journey.
What tank is typical in a Torresdale house?+
A 275 in the basement of one of the older singles, with the fill on a side wall. The riverside apartment buildings are not oil-heated, so a delivery here is almost always to a house.
What is the minimum order?+
100 gallons, as everywhere. From a low 275 that is well under a fill, so most orders run 180 to 220 gallons.
