Fast, efficient service, good price
Fast, efficient service at a reasonable price (cheaper than most suppliers in the current situation). Ordered late evening for a delivery in 7 days time and it came in a day and a half, fabulous service! Sooo much better than our previous late and stressful delivery from Directoil a. k.a. Watsons Fuels. Will be recommending you to all our local friends and neighbours, thank you 😊

…Unfailing good service.
Due to a large tree being brought down in the garden the delivery this time was not straightforward. However the delivery driver was excellent and dealt with the problem in an efficient, professional way. As usual, exceptional service from this firm.

Southern used to be good but now they seem to ignore what they have been asked to do.
Maybe it has something to with a change of name and thus a change of staff.
