Fuel Prices
Fuel Prices
Truck Me shows live fuel prices at stations along your route, sourced from official state government APIs. Find the cheapest diesel without detours.
How It Works
Fuel price data comes from free government feeds across all Australian states:
- Queensland, QLD Government fuel price data
- New South Wales, NSW FuelCheck
- Victoria, VIC fuel price data
- South Australia, SA fuel pricing
- Western Australia, FuelWatch WA
Prices are updated regularly throughout the day as stations report new prices.
