How to save on fuel in Durham
- Compare before you fill up. Prices between nearby Durham stations can differ by 10p per litre or more — that's up to £5 on a single tank.
- Supermarket fuel is usually cheapest. Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda and Morrisons forecourts typically undercut branded ones.
- Avoid motorway services. Fuel on the motorway is often 15–20p per litre dearer than in town.
- Fill up midweek. Prices tend to be lower on Tuesdays and Wednesdays than at weekends.
Prices come from the UK Government's official Fuel Finder scheme. Under the Motor Fuel Price (Open Data) Regulations 2025, every UK retailer must report pump prices within 30 minutes of a change, so the figures above reflect what drivers in Durham are paying right now. PumpScout shows the two most common grades — E10 (Unleaded) and B7 (Diesel).
