Historic lighthouses ... world-class fishing ... quaint villages where a friendly "hi" comes naturally, our special part of New York State really stands out from the rest.

Glider Oil Company really stands out from the rest, too. Since 1942, we've served our special corner of New York State with unmatched service, and warm, personal attention. We're big enough to offer you a wide variety of fuels and conveniences ... yet we're small enough to know you by name. As a family-owned company, our goal is to treat you like a member of the family - that's the Glider difference.

Our residential and commercial customers expect nothing less than prompt, dependable fuel delivery and courteous, professional service, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. And we deliver!
