Residents of Newcastle and the broader Hunter Region are enjoying a welcome relief at the petrol pump as fuel prices have taken a significant dip. Motorists are encouraged to shop around to make the most of the lower prices and avoid paying more than necessary.
In inner Newcastle, some of the most competitive prices for E10 fuel can be found at BP Hamilton South, BP Newcastle West, and 7-Eleven Wickham, all offering fuel at 155.9 cents per litre. These stations are currently leading the charge in providing affordable fuel options for local drivers.
However, not all service stations are following suit. The BP at Merewether is selling E10 at 165.9 cents per litre, while Shell Reddy Kotara tops the charts as the most expensive in the area, charging a hefty 169.9 cents per litre. Drivers are advised to be cautious and check prices before filling up to avoid these higher rates.
Expanding beyond the city centre, the broader Hunter Region also boasts some attractive prices. Costco at Boolaroo is offering the lowest price in the area, with E10 fuel priced at just 154.7 cents per litre. This could be a worthwhile trip for those looking to save even more at the pump.
For residents in Cessnock and Maitland, it’s particularly important to stay vigilant. Fuel prices in these regions can vary dramatically, with some stations charging significantly higher rates. In Cessnock, the Caltex at Heddon Greta is selling fuel at a steep 181.9 cents per litre. Similarly, motorists in Maitland could end up paying as much as 182.9 cents per litre at the independent service station in Beresfield. Using fuel price apps to compare local prices before filling up is highly recommended to avoid overpaying.
While recent reports have indicated a general downward trend in fuel prices, it’s essential to use up-to-date resources to get the most accurate information. Fuel prices can fluctuate rapidly due to various global and local factors, so staying informed is key to maximising savings.
Tips for Saving on Fuel:
With the current drop in fuel prices, now is an excellent time for drivers in Newcastle and the Hunter Region to fill up. By staying informed and being selective about where you purchase fuel, you can enjoy substantial savings and keep more money in your pocket.
