What You'll See Near You
Supermarkets:
Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, and Costco stations are all listed with live prices — supermarkets are typically the cheapest option in most areas.
1
Branded forecourts:
Shell, BP, Esso, and Texaco stations are included so you can compare branded prices against supermarket alternatives nearby.
1
Independents:
Local independent stations are also covered, which sometimes offer competitive prices that branded and supermarket chains don't match.

Why Prices Vary Between Nearby Stations
No national price cap:
There is no legal requirement for petrol stations to charge a uniform price, so pump prices can differ by several pence per litre even on the same road.
2
Supermarkets are often cheapest:
The CMA's road fuel market study found supermarket forecourts consistently price fuel lower than branded stations, using it to drive footfall.
2
Prices change frequently:
UK fuel prices can shift multiple times per week in response to wholesale market movements, so it pays to check live data before filling up.

Find the Nearest and Cheapest Station Now
Nearest is not always cheapest:
The closest station to you may not be the best value — a station 0.5 miles further could save you 5p or more per litre on a full tank.

Check before you leave:
Using CheckFuelPrices before you set off means you can combine finding the nearest station with finding the best price in your area.
