We want to take the time to address the ever changing situation we are facing regarding fuel. We as a fuel outlet are instructed daily on what our fuel costings will be for a delivery that day. So you have some idea generally a fuel station does not make much money on fuel, we have it set as close to cost price as we can and sometimes even below cost price. As all of our staff are local members of this community we all understand that we have to look out for each other, that’s just what this amazing community is about. We as a business are trying our best to keep supply up and cost down as low as we can
Now with regard to the fuel price firstly I am sorry. This is not something we want to do however what we pay for it needs to be put onto the customer. Now we do receive top ups on fuel everyday or every second day from our supplier and another big one coming tomorrow (hopefully). That being said this is the current information we have received from our supplier:
Major oil companies have now been shut out of the Brisbane fuel terminals, and as a result fuel supply is becoming increasingly restricted at Newcastle Termianl . We have been advised that the limited allocation currently available to us may be the last supply received for the immediate future.
We sincerely apologise but as you can all understand we need to try our best to keep the whole community with access to fuel as long as we can. We will keep you as updated as we can but please understand that this is out of our control. Our staff who are all locals from Attunga are always here to serve you always with kindness and great customer service and we all understand how you feel so please when interacting with our staff be respectful. We are all in this together as a community let’s look out for each other just like we always do.
An email from one of our fuel supplier :

Dear Valued Customer,
Fuel Levy Adjustment Notice
We would like to inform you that due to the continued rise in fuel costs and the rapid evolving situation in the Middle East conflict, a fuel levy will be applied to all deliveries and services effective from Friday, 13th March 2026.
This adjustment is necessary to help offset the significant increases in transportation expenses and ensure we can continue providing reliable service and timely deliveries.
The fuel levy will be applied as a fixed percentage of 17.5% per delivery and will be reviewed regularly in line with fuel price movements. If you would like confirmation on the exact amount of your delivery, please contact the office and we will be able to provide this to you.
We appreciate your understanding and continued support. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
