Your fuel delivery details
Your estimate sits within the typical range.
On-site fuel is the pump price plus a delivery fee, so the per-litre cost drops the more you order, fill the tank rather than topping up. The fuel price itself tracks the market, so the delivery fee is what to compare between suppliers.
💰 Ways to save
- Ask about backloading, a truck returning empty will carry your load far cheaper if your timing is flexible.
- Depot-to-depot is cheaper than door-to-door if you can drop off and collect yourself.
- Get a few quotes, freight rates vary a lot by operator and on which lanes they run regularly.
