The hydraulic pump has overheated or a gearbox has failed under load. Shoot. Time for a repair. What does the invoice say? Parts, labor…but what it probably doesn’t list is “wrong lubricant.”
There’s a long-term cost to working with a purely transactional supplier. Industrial and construction operations across Georgia and Alabama need to count on expert guidance, too. A well-matched lubricant could have saved the day before there was a problem to begin with. If you accidentally ordered the wrong one, the damage will quietly add up long before that costly failure finally shows itself.
Whatley Oil has helped construction crews and commercial fleets to get the right products in their hands for 65+ years. Our lubrication specialists understand the products and the equipment, and they’re not too shy to pipe up with a lifesaving recommendation before you finalize your order.
Expert Consultations, Reliable Drop-Offs…Everything But the Kitchen Sink!
Many businesses start their search for a local engine oil distributor and quickly realize they need a partner who can handle their entire operation. With that said, plenty of industrial lubricant distributors can move boxes. Not as many have a Certified Lubricant Specialist (CLS) on staff to help you sort through viscosity grades, additive packages, OEM requirements, and bulk storage options.
At Whatley Oil, we supply and advice our customers on the full gamut of quality industrial lubricant products, including:
- Engine oils for gasoline and diesel applications
- Low SAPS oil for modern emission-controlled diesel engines
- Hydraulic fluids for high-pressure systems in loaders, lifts, and industrial machinery
- Transmission fluids and gear oils
- Industrial engine greases and other lubrication products for engine components
- Specialty lubricants for high heat or high-load
We work with leading brands and premium formulations for construction and industrial machinery. Perhaps you only need bulk engine oil delivered to a yard in Columbus. We’re the most reliable partner in town. But if you need a specialty hydraulic fluid for a plant in Albany, or packaged cases of aviation engine oils for a site in Phenix City, we’re on the job and can guide you to the right stuff for your equipment, too.

Flexible Delivery Across Georgia & Alabama
Industrial operations each run on a unique schedule. Some may need bulk engine oil deliveries to a yard, where others are looking to get drums or pails delivered directly to the jobsite. Whatley gives you the flexibility to go either direction. Bulk deliveries, drum, tote, or pail orders, scheduled on-site drop-offs…whatever you need. Our goal is always the same: make sure the right lubricants are ready for your equipment when you need them most.
On-Site Support and Monitoring
Your lubrication program has to be proactive if you’re hoping to get the best results. Our team can assist with fluid analysis support, inventory tracking, compliance considerations, and even product consolidation and simplification. That extra layer of support helps your operation avoid last-second emergency orders and makes sure all maintenance stays predictable.
