How to have tenants pay for oil

We are about to close on out second SFR and it has a relatively new well working oil burner for heat. We have the tenants pay their own utilities but when it comes to getting oil delivered I'm wondering how we should handle that. I think they won't be happy to have to lay out 1500 bucks to fill the tank when the time comes. Also what, if anything can we do about charging for the oil that is currently in the tank that won't be used for a few months. Anyone dealt with this before? Our other house has gas so it's very easy to send the bill and have it taken care of. This is for a student rental by the way not for a family. Thanks for any thoughts.
