looking for a good oil service contract in Stuyvesant Heights

We just bought a 2 family home and we need to fill our oil tank which is 1/4 full. My question is does anyone have a contract with a heating oil company where they service your boiler once a year as well as deliver oil to your house ? And if so, do you recommend any particular company. Thanks in advance,

I use Petro.  Excellent service maintaining the boiler (although I purchased the extra service contract, about a hundred bucks a year).

Most of my neighbors with oil use Petro as well.

I have Petro which was recommended to me by someone.  They are a little pricey and they will tell you so.  But they are correct in that their service is very, very good and they do a great job in cleaning my boiler.  The last time I requested service from them, i was late getting home and called their dispatcher to let him know and when I finally get home, a the better part of an hour late, the service tech was waiting in front of my house, resting in his truck.   That was well into the evening and he gladly came in and took care of the boiler.  Because of the price, I have thought about dropping them; because of the service I have not done so.
