In each and every case, we have the right either to cancel or to postpone any delivery without any liability whatsoever.
  8. Prices subject to change daily.  OIL IS A COMMODITY, THE PRICE CHANGES DAILY.  If you pay online for a delivery with a CC, we do everything we can to hold a price until we deliver.  If you choose the cash or e-check option, THE PRICE DOES NOT HOLD UNTIL WE ARE ABLE TO DELIVER.  We make every effort to hold the price on the day a customer orders, however, it is NOT a guarantee.   An additional fee is charged, per gallon, for Saturday and Sunday deliveries. If you pay in full for an order and cancel it, there is a $25 transaction fee which comes off your refund.
  9. Minimum order 50 gallons.
  10. Minimum charge $150.00 cash price.

  15. You will receive a credit on your account if the gallons delivered is less than the gallons purchased.  If gallons delivered doesn’t meet the price break, you will be charged an additional 5 cents/gallon.  For example, if you purchase 150G and your tank only takes 125 gallons, you will be charged the 100-149G price. 
  16. Buying additional gallons than your tank will hold DOES NOT hold the price until the next delivery.  Your account will be credited for the balance of US Dollars after your delivery is made.  For example; if you purchase 300G and your tank is a 275G tank, you will be charged either the 150-299G price or the 100-149G price.  Oil is a commodity, subsequently the prices change daily.  PURCHASING GROSS AMOUNTS OF OIL TO HOLD THE PRICE DOES NOT HOLD THE PRICE!!
  17. If you pay online for a delivery or if you pay cash for a delivery and your tank DOES NOT take all the gallons you paid for, your account at Miner Discount Fuel will hold a credit balance towards your next delivery of fuel.  We do NOT refund money back to a CC or an ACH account unless a $25.00 transaction fee is charged back to the CC.
  18. Anything less than 100G will be charged at the 50 gallon price.  If you order 100G and your tank doesn’t take the entire 100G, the price changes to the 50G daily price.
