Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average petrol price in Essex?
Average petrol in Essex is currently around 177.9p per litre, with diesel around 202.0p. Prices are refreshed daily from the UK government fuel finder feed.
Where does this fuel price data come from?
Prices are sourced from the UK government's fuel finder feed, which collates pump prices reported by garages across the country. We refresh the figures daily.
How often are these prices updated?
Every day. Because pump prices move frequently, we re-fetch the government feed on a daily schedule so the prices you see are current.
Are supermarket garages cheaper than branded ones?
Usually, but not always. Supermarket forecourts (Tesco, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, Asda) are often a few pence cheaper than branded stations, so it's worth comparing on this page before you fill up.
Why do fuel prices vary across counties?
Competition, local demand and delivery costs all play a part. Rural counties with fewer competing garages often see slightly higher prices than busy urban areas.
