Columbus moving companies want to urge current Columbus residents or anyone who is planning on moving to Columbus, to stock up on gas before prices increase.
Since most moving companies will charge you for fuel or make you return the moving truck with a full tank, go to your local gas station and fill up gas cans while prices are at an all-time low, so that your move will be cheaper.
Gasoline prices in Ohio are starting to increase again, with the average now at just above $2 a gallon. The prices are expected to remain low throughout January and then see a potential increase. So if like the current price at the pump, it is best to stock up with as much as you can, while it is still affordable.
If you live close to the Sam’s Club in Reynoldsburg, you will find that gas at their location is the cheapest around, at $1.72 a gallon. Just around the corner, gas prices spike to $2.15 a gallon, so make the extra mile drive or two and make sure that you are stopping at a gas station that still has a low price.
Although the national average gas price continues to drop, Tom Kloza, an energy analyst for the Oil Price Information Service, says that the Great Lakes states such as Ohio do not see the effects of dropping fuel costs as quickly as other states across the nation do.
Regardless if gas prices increase across the board, 2015 is predicted to see the lowest average gas prices since 2009, making it the perfect year to get out and travel, spend the extra pocket cash on desirables, or let All My Sons move you to another state.
