About Atlantic & Pacific Oil Company

Atlantic & Pacific Oil Company was founded in 1934 by Abe Ainbinder, father of our current owner, Sam Ainbinder.

Sam started working at Atlantic & Pacific Oil, Co. in 1947 when his father put him on the oil trucks to pull the hose for the drivers and sent him out with the service men to work on equipment maintenance and repairs. This has given Sam a uniques hands-on knowledge of all aspects of the business

Sam has not only grown up in the business, he is part of the community. Sam has served on the Boards of many neighborhood organizations. He has worked with many of the area churches and synagogues with community activities. Additionally he has coached many boys and girls sports teams over the years and many former players still stop by the office to check in with “the Coach.” He is a member of the American Energy Coalition, New York State Energy Coalition and National Oilheat Research Alliance.

Sam has made A & P Oil more than just a business; it is a neighborhood institution. He is well known in the area for “being there” in an emergency.

Testimonials

Thanks...and on behalf of the family and Aunt Rosie especially, we hope that you and Sam have really good holidays. The spirit you have shown towards Aunt Rosie and the cooperation you have given to us whenever we asked speaks volumes of the quality of the company, yes, but more of the people who make it what it is, an example of how businesses should be run for sure. Again...thank you and have a super Christmas.

I have been a customer of Atlantic & Pacific Oil Co. for more years than I care to count. During that time I have discovered that this company runs its business the old fashioned way. They care for and respect their customers. Recently I received an enormous water bill that I did not understand. Sam helped me locate a leak, get it repaired and then worked with the Water Board to get the charges reduced. This was not their responsibility but they stepped in to help me. They are a caring, respectful, attentive, knowledgeable, understanding, resourceful (I’ve run out of adjectives) firm. Heating oil is something we need to live and in today’s world it is a pleasure doing business with a firm such as Atlantic & Pacific Oil Co.

We, the Young Israel of Bedford Bay of Brooklyn have a very productive business relationship with the Atlantic & Pacific Oil Co. We purchase heating oil from them on a regular basis and find the price to be fair. The staff is very pleasant and easy to deal with. Any work they have done on our heating equipment was completed in a professional manner and within reasonable timeframes. We recommend the Atlantic & Pacific Oil Co without any reservations.

When we were replacing our boiler we contacted Atlantic & Pacific Oil Company. It was the best decision we made. The technicians were knowledgeable and professional; they did a great job. Sam and his team are very helpful, they give great customer service.

I can truly say that when our CO-OP building which is self managed decided to use Atlantic & Pacific, it was one of the best decisions we ever made. The owner Sam goes above and beyond to help his clients. We truly would not have made it this far with the rising cost of fuel and all the maintenance issue . Sam worked with us and got us through three winters . As the manager of this building I can speak on behalf of all the shareholders. Atlantic and Pacific has truly had been a blessing.

Five stars to Atlantic & Pacific oil company! They were very helpful in helping me out with an issue which I had with my oil tank. Sam was very informative and dedicated to making sure I had the best help. Thanks again!

I have been using A & P Oil for oil and service for more than 40 years. Initially we had a "blowback" in our furnace and we called Sam, from A & P, who was a neighbor, to help us. A & P replaced the old furnace (installed before we owned the house) and was very accommodating with financing. We continued to purchase oil/service until we sold the house.

Our new home was heated by gas, but we continued to use A & P Oil for service because we trusted them and knew they were reliable.

Hurricane Ida caused extensive damage in our basement, including to our boiler, and A & P came to the rescue. Significant repairs were required, all completed by A & P Oil.

I highly recommend A & P Oil as they can be trusted to be honest, efficient and capable as well as pleasant. They are a neighborhood multi-generational company and are involved in and supportive of their community.

“I’ve known Sam for over 25 years. His company has serviced my home many times. Not only do they do terrific work but Sam has had his team at my home within the hour!!

They troubleshoot until the job is complete and then follow up to make sure everything is working splendidly! You couldn’t ask for a better company! They really are the best.

I highly recommend!!”

“We have automatic delivery service for our multiple-dwelling building with a store-front, and will-call service for our two-family house. They’re extremely responsive. My father started using them over 30 years ago. We have a good relationship with them. They’re always reliable and always dependable. They do service and inspections for the boilers at both buildings, and they clean the furnaces and chimneys at both buildings.

I’ve never had any problems with them. They’re always efficient. If there are ever any issues, Sam always gets involved to make sure they’re figured out. Sam is always on top of everything. I think it says a lot that the owner is involved. You can call anytime and he always has an open-door policy.

We like oil heating because it’s a good price, as well as the service. My family’s been dealing with them for a long time. They start up everything at the beginning of the heating season.”

Flatbush Jewish Center has been using Atlantic & Pacific Oil for our heating/boiler maintenance for many years and they have provided exceptional service. Always efficient and friendly, Sam and his crew have helped us with regular maintenance and any emergency work that has arisen. Since we are a synagogue, there have been times when we needed immediate help to be able to hold services on Shabbat. Sam did not hesitate to get someone out here to quickly get us up and running. As a non-profit organization, it is good to know that there are still companies like this one that will provide excellent service at a reasonable price. It has been a pleasure doing business with Atlantic & Pacific Oil and I hope to continue to do so for many years to come.

“Sam and his staff have been working with me for over 20 years at 5 houses that I own in Queens (single and multi-family) for oil heating installation and repair, and they’ve done a very good job. The service is excellent. The prices are good. They’re very reliable when we call. Oil heat is more efficient and reliable than other types of heat.”

I highly recommend!!”

“I’ve been dealing with Sam and Atlantic & Pacific more than 60 years. I started working with the company with his father Abraham. I’m satisfied with him, and everything they’ve done. I’m not changing. Pretty soon, I have to have my chimney and boiler cleaned, and I’ll be talking to him.

When I call, I need the service, and they come promptly. They answer my calls promptly. I do not have to wait a day or two or three before they show up. I have a heating and hot water unit all in one. It’s in the basement of my house. 60 years is a long time to be a customer. I’ve been very satisfied.”

“We’ve been working with the company for over 10 years. They’ve been helpful for repairs and what’s needed for the time-frame when we need the heat. Whenever we needed the help, they responded. They helped save us money. We have already recommended them to others, and will continue suggesting them.”

I highly recommend!!”

“I’ve been working with Sam for over 10 years getting heating oil, servicing boilers and cleaning the chimneys at 3 apartment buildings (16-family, 14-family and 6-family buildings).

He’s been very helpful. We are good associates and friends. Whenever there’s a problem, a member of the staff reaches out and fixes it. He calls to ask about servicing the boiler and cleaning the chimney. He calls to check in with me, and updates me with mail. Yes, he has helped with saving money. He’s given me different ideas for what to do.

One time I can remember, it was very cold below zero, and one of the boilers went down. They worked in the cold and fixed it, so my tenants could be comfortable. They came at night.

Any time I call, they always come.

Yes, sure, I would recommend them to others. No doubt.”
