Have you ever rented a dumpster? Many people haven’t.
If you haven’t rented a dumpster before, you may not understand how it’s done, or why one is a good idea.
Ace-Robbins makes renting a dumpster as easy as 1-2-3! That’s because we do all the work. You contact us and give us the details of the project and we’ll give you a FREE quote as well as make sure you have the right size dumpster for your project. On the day you need it, we show up with your dumpster. But we don’t just drop it on your driveway and go. We carefully place it on wood boards, so your driveway is not damaged. When you’re done, or when the dumpster is full, we come and get it, cleaning up the driveway so you don’t have to deal with a mess after we leave.
One advantage dumpsters have is that they’re big. They’re much bigger than the bed of a pickup truck or the back of a van or an SUV. And they’re way bigger than the trunk of your car.
Instead of having to stop work and take time to schlep waste and other items to the dump or elsewhere, you just put it in the dumpster. When it’s full, contact us and we’ll come pick it up and leave an empty dumpster if you need another one. Whether it’s a renovation project, purging ahead of a move, or emptying a loved one’s home, you can focus on getting the job done!
If you’re having workers haul the waste away from your home, or hiring someone to do it, you’re throwing your money away. Renting a dumpster from Ace-Robbins is time-saving and a more affordable option.
There are certain items Ace-Robbins cannot take in our dumpsters, such as household appliances, paints, electronics, and hazardous materials including pesticides or pool chemicals. By getting rid of everything else for you, you won’t have to pay as much to deal with removing these materials.

Please note: There is no fee to enroll in our EZ Pay Plan. However, there are a lot of benefits.
There are many advantages to signing up for the Ace-Robbins EZ Pay Plan:

World events have left many markets volatile. From supply chain delays to the price of gas for your car, the past two years have been a challenge for all of us. Current events are causing volatility in the cost of heating oil. And when the price of oil rises sharply, it hurts us all.
Global crude oil prices soared to over $100 per barrel for the first time in eight years after Russia invaded Ukraine in late February. As you probably know all too well by now, the price of crude oil goes is linked to the price you pay for gasoline, heating oil, and many other products.
This is unwelcomed news to those of us already exhausted after two years of surviving a pandemic. Prior to this, energy prices in all sectors—oil, propane, natural gas and electricity—had been on a steady rise because global oil production hadn’t yet caught up with the pent-up demand that quickly followed the perceived end of the pandemic.
Even before the war in Ukraine accelerated price increases to an even greater degree, frenetic consumer spending—combined with persistent supply shortages—had already sent inflation rates in our country to their highest level in 40 years.
You’ll hear some pundits and politicians in the U.S. assert that “we just have to drill for more oil at home.” That’s a simplified and misinformed solution to the production shortfall.
Investors know that a zero-carbon emissions world is not too far off in our future. Big money is holding back on fossil fuel investments as legislators try to move the country toward more renewable energy. Investors are looking to sink their money into long-term, profitable opportunities in the burgeoning green energy field.
Local heating oil dealers like us are making excellent progress with making our fuel more dependent on renewable energy too. Ace-Robbins is proud to offer green solutions that bring affordable green energy to your home.
Another factor influencing oil companies is what happened in the spring of 2020 when crude oil prices fell all the way to negative $30 per barrel. Traders had to pay buyers to take oil! Since then, however, prices have been rising steadily. And then they exploded in late February after the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
But, proving just how much and how quickly things can change, crude oil prices have dropped under $100 per barrel again (as of mid-March). This was caused by a variety of factors, including the unexpected Covid-19 lockdowns in China, small signs of a possible diplomatic solution to the Ukraine conflict, and the biggest drop in four years of “bullish bets” on the market by hedgers.
To say that we are currently in the midst of an extremely volatile energy market would be an understatement.
Russia is a large factor in all of this because it is the third-largest petroleum and liquid fuels producer in the world (behind only the United States and Saudi Arabia). It’s a major exporter of both crude oil and natural gas.
For weeks, energy prices had been rising in anticipation of the sanctions that were likely to be levied on the Russian energy sector if the country invaded Ukraine. In the frenzied world of investment, this is known as the “fear factor.” Even the hint of a possible disruption in energy supply influences how commodities traders buy and sell.
After Russia invaded, the U.S. was the first country to place a ban on Russian imported oil and petroleum products, which amounted to about 7% of U.S. imports in 2020. In comparison, Canada ranked number one with 52% of petroleum imports, according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA).
But here’s where the fear factor comes in again. While Russian oil imported into the U.S. accounts for just a few drops in the barrel, so to speak, the prospect of Europe eventually joining the U.S. in banning Russian energy imports would leave a big void to fill, and those who make their living in the oil markets don’t like that uncertainty. This includes the speculators who are betting on price moves as well as the hedgers, who are limiting risk for their clients who are involved with either the production or consumption of oil.
We don’t know where things will go from here, but we hope this spike is only temporary. Nothing will make us happier than when prices return to normal. Until then, trust us to look out for your interests.
Ace-Robbins remains committed to being a dependable and affordable source of heating oil. We proudly serve our customers in Bradford, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Susquehanna, Sullivan, and Wyoming County. And we hope that peace is on the horizon.

Unsurprisingly, we’ve been getting many calls around two connected issues: the surge in fuel prices and supply concerns. People are astounded by how much prices have risen and how fast. So are we. They are also concerned that there will be interruptions in supply that will cause them to run out of fuel.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine shocked energy markets, sending crude oil to record territory and spiking all energy prices. We’ve had increases from our heating oil suppliers of over $1.25 per gallon in less than a week. Propane prices have been better but still increased over 40 cents per gallon. And the situation remains very fluid.
We don’t know where things will go from here. One thing we can tell you is that we hate this as much as you do. Some people are under the misconception that when prices rise, we make more money. The opposite is true. People cut back usage. They have trouble paying their bills, and our receivables skyrocket. Meanwhile, we must pay our suppliers in just ten days. We must borrow much more from the bank. It is an awful mess for everyone.
One thing you can count on is that we will not let you run out. We have been in business for many years and have very strong relationships with suppliers and financial institutions. We are already getting calls from customers who are with other companies that can’t say the same. These customers are unable to get deliveries for 20 days out. You don’t have to worry about that with us.
If you are having trouble paying your bill, talk to us before it becomes a problem. Many times, we can work out something to give you more time, especially if you’ve been with us a while. We can also set you up on a monthly payment plan.
Nothing will make us happier than when prices start dropping. Until then, trust us to look out for you, and let’s pray for the people of Ukraine.
