EasyCAP
Dead River Company recommends EasyCAP – our most popular plan. EasyCAP protects you whether oil prices rise or fall. When you sign-up for EasyCAP:
- Your price will be capped.
- If fuel prices fall, you are guaranteed to pay the lower price, and if prices go up, you will never pay more than the CAP price. There is an enrollment fee for this level of price protection.
- To help you budget, we spread your EasyCAP payments out over even monthly payments.
- You earn an annual interest rate when you end a month with a credit balance.
- You're set up on automatic delivery so you won't have to worry about watching your gauge. And, we will not let you run out.
Prepaid Fixed Plan
With the Prepaid Fixed Plan:
- You lock-in your price per gallon at the same fixed price for every delivery during the program year.
- You select the number of gallons you wish to purchase and pay in full at the beginning of the program.
- You pay the same fixed price regardless of whether prices continue to rise or go down.
- You enjoy the convenience of automatic delivery and will not need to worry about watching the tank gauge this winter or about running out.
