Once upon a time...well let's try the condensed version.
In 1947, Robert Harris, Sr. leased a gas station on East Main Street in Orange, MA.
He bought a delivery truck and started peddling home heating oil. If a customer had a service problem or ran out of oil at night a phone call would get him out of bed. He worked at building the trust of customers by emphasizing a personal attention to detail.
In 1956, our business moved to its current location in New Salem, MA.
The founder's son Robert Harris, Jr. currently runs the business along with his wife, Pamela and their two sons, Robert III and Joseph. While the company has grown significantly, the personal service continues and late night callers still awaken the owners.
In 1981 our company was awarded a Whirlpool franchise and we sell an array of Whirlpool and KitchenAid appliances that are on display in our showroom. We also repair and service all major appliance brands.
With today's emphasis on energy conservation, we are proud to install highly efficient heating systems for our customers. It may seem strange that a company who sells oil would install systems that use less oil but that is just an example of our commitment to help our customers.
Our company is very involved in our community, sponsoring many youth sports teams, area fund raisers and community events. Not only do we work locally, we also live here. We are truly local folks, serving you, our neighbors.
