The Gottier Fuel delivery truck
The actual truck. No subcontractors, ever
The fleet

You have seen this truck.

Blue tank, our name on the side, probably in your neighbor's driveway. Automatic deliveries run on our own trucks, driven by people who have been doing this for decades — and in a burner emergency, that truck comes to you at 2am.

Since 1960

The company your parents called.

Founded in 1960 by brothers Warren J. and Nelson Gottier, Gottier Fuel is still family-owned and operated in Vernon three generations later. Some of our customers have been with us since 1985 — because when you call, a Gottier answers, and when we say we'll be there, we're there.

Bioheat FAQ

What's Bioheat, anyway?

What is Bioheat fuel?

Bioheat is traditional heating oil blended with renewable biodiesel made from plant oils and other organic material. Same warmth, cleaner burn.

Do I need a new furnace or tank to use it?

No. Bioheat works in your existing oil heating system with no modifications — you don't have to change a thing.

Is it better for my equipment?

It burns cleaner than straight heating oil, which means less buildup in your system — and paired with our annual tune-up, a longer life for your equipment.

How do I switch?

You already have. Every delivery we make is Bioheat — we're a certified Bioheat dealer. Call (860) 875-6281 to start deliveries.
