WEBVTT AS YOU MIGHT EXPECT WIT THE RECENT SNOW AND COLD TEMPERATURES. OIL DEIVERIES ARE IN HIGH DEMAND THIS WEEK WMTW NEWS 8'S TYLER CADORETTE IS LIVE IN PORTLAND FOR US THIS EVENING. TYLER -- THIS IS OBVIOUSLY GOOD FOR BUSINESS BUT ARE COMPANIES LOCALLY STRUGGLING TO KEEP UP WITH ORDERS LIKE LAST YEAR? FROM WHAT I'M HEARING -- IT'S BUSY BUT NOT OVERWELMING AT THIS POINT. ONE COMPANY I SPOKE WITH SAYS THEY'RE ACTUALLY IN A BETER SPOT NOW BECAUS OF THAT RECORD- BREAKING COLD STRETCH LAST JANUARY 32:36 THE GOOD THING ABOUT GOING THROUGH AN EVENT LIKE LAST YEAR'S DEEP FREEZE IS IT PREPARES YOU FOR THE WORST. AND LIKE I SAY A COUPLE DAYS OF THIS SU- ZERO WEATHER IS NOTHING COMPARE TO WHAT WE WENT THROUGH LAST YAR. 32:50 STEVE GIROUX OF GIROUX ENERGY IN PORTLAND IS KEEPING EVERYTHING IN PERSECTIVE. HIS DRIVERS ARE IN THE THK OF IT THIS WEEK... BUT HE SAYS THEY'RE KEEPING UP WITH THE DEMAND. CUSTOMERS ALSO SEEM BETTER PREPARED FOR THESE COLD SNAPS... AFTR SOME HAD TO SCRAMBLE LAST WINTER TO KEEP THE HEAT ON. 32:55 MORE PEOPLE HAVE COME ON AUTOATIC DELIVERY. MORE PEOPLE ARE IN TUNE WITH THEIR HEATING NEEDS. 33:00 GIROUX SAYS HE ISN'T DEALING WITH A SHORTAGE OF DRIVERS OR ANY ISSUES REATED TO THAT.. BUT OTHER COMPANIES ARE LOOKNG FOR HELP. WE CHECKED ONLINE THIS MORNING... AND FOUND A LIST OF JOB POSTINGS FOR DELIVERY DRIVERS IN THE PORTLAND AREA IT'S BECOME A ROUTINE CHALLENGE IN THIS BUSINESS 33:42 THERE'S DEFINITELY RUMBLINS OUT THERE THAT THERE IS A STRUGGLE WITH SOM COMPANIES FINDING DRIVERS AND I THINK IT'S BEYON OUR INDUSTRY AS WELL. 33:5 BACK OUT HERE LIVE... ONE OF THE BIGEST ISSUES WITH OIL DELIVEIES IS ACTUALLY THE DRIVEWAYS AND WALKWAYS. WITH THIS SNOW ON THE GROUND AND RAIN AND ICE POSSIBLE LATER THIS WEEK... MAKE SURE THOSE DRIVERS HAE A CLEAR PATH TO YOUR HOUSE... OR THEY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO FILL YOUR TANK LIVE IN PORTLAND... TC... NE
