HOME & HEATING<br />
Keep cosy with<br />
RD Petroleum<br />
this winter<br />
RD Petroleum (RDP) is a familiar sight<br />
for farm and rural residents around the<br />
Canterbury region, however now days urban<br />
residents also enjoy the same excellent<br />
customer service for which RDP is known<br />
for in rural communities, through their<br />
home heating diesel.<br />
RDP began its home heating diesel<br />
delivery service to the lower South Island’s<br />
main urban centres of Christchurch, Timaru,<br />
Dunedin and Invercargill a number of years<br />
ago. Customer demand has continued<br />
to increase year upon year, and RDP has<br />
responded with specialised improvements to<br />
its delivery equipment.<br />
The trucks that deliver RDP’s home<br />
heating diesel in each urban centre are<br />
drawn from the company’s extensive<br />
SOUTHERN VIEW<br />
vehicle fleet. This means they have the latest<br />
communication and GPS tracking technology<br />
on board, so the operations team always<br />
know where they are and how far away they<br />
are from their next delivery stop.<br />
RDP’s home heating diesel trucks come<br />
equipped with a specially-designed hose,<br />
through which the diesel is pumped from<br />
the truck into house tanks. The length of<br />
the hose allows the trucks to access tanks<br />
without having to enter the property, avoiding<br />
damaging the driveway. RDP is the place to<br />
go if you require diesel conveniently delivered<br />
to your home and as a loyal RDP customer<br />
you’re offered discounted pricing and can<br />
become eligible for value-added benefits.<br />
