You'll see why we are a company you can trust and why so many customers have remained loyal throughout the years. Sincerely,  Ray Hart Company HistoryHart Petroleum was founded in 1979 by Raymond A. Hart. It began as a COD heating Oil Company in Babylon, NY. Mr. Hart purchased one truck and made the deliveries on his own. (He was much younger then) At that time, the business was servicing local Suffolk County customers out of a 2 room office space in the back of a gas station which he operated. After close to ten years of operating as a COD company, Mr. Hart decided to begin allowing his customers to obtain credit with the company and start an automatic delivery program. He also attended BOCES at night to learn about heating oil equipment and eventually began to offer service plans. In 1991, Hart Petroleum was moved into a building and rents space from our own Terminus Properties Inc. located at 323 Skidmore's Road in Deer Park, where it currently remains today. We primarily serve residential customers on Long Island from the Queens-Nassau border to the Riverhead town line in Suffolk County.Hart also delivers diesel fuel to commercial customers in both Nassau and Suffolk Counties. This part of the business consists of delivery of bulk diesel and pickup of diesel for truck and car fuel use from our New Hyde Park Oil Terminal. In 2007, Hart Petroleum became one of the few Long Island companies to offer Biofuel in the form of Bio Blend Heating Oil and Biodiesel, in addition to #2 heating oil and diesel. This effort was partnered with the investment made by our New Hyde Park Oil Terminal of a fuel injection blending system for production of Bio Blend Heating Oil and Bio Diesel, as well as the reopening of the rail spur at that location. Not only has this made Hart Petroleum a frontrunner in reducing our carbon footprint and dependency on foreign oil, it has also provided our customers with the opportunity to receive a New York State tax credit of up to $0.20 per gallon for every gallon of Bio Blend Heating Oil purchased during the year and reduced diesel taxes for commercial customers who purchase and use Bio Diesel. While we wear many hats in this industry, my family and I are committed to continued growth in a fashion that makes economic and environmental sense. We continue to look for opportunities to make a difference in our customer's needs, from servicing heating equipment for a retail customer of Hart Petroleum on Christmas Eve to making bulk deliveries for a competitor with our transport business Hart Trucking Corp or accepting a rail car at our New Hyde Park Oil Terminal for another competitor to service the City of N.Y. We are widely recognized throughout the industry as a leader and expert in our fields.
