Available at all servos across the Nullarbor.Suggest to fuel at Pt Agusta ,Ceduna, Mundrabilla & Norseman. These are generally cheaper than the others

$1.25 - $1.28 @ Norseman. Probably 10 - 15c dearer out further

YES YES YES!!! I agree with Sarg, these are the BEST stops for fuel prices across the 'Bour! But yo do need just over 600km range!!
Ceduna to Mundrabilla (pretty good food too) then another 600ish to Norseman!
Thats the worst of it, after that its just the normal fluctuations in the towns! Try to avoid filling up if you have to in Balledonia, Cocklebiddy, Eucla, Bordertown....Nullabor Stn not too bad! All not bad places to visit and support (coffee, food) but the fuel is a killer!!

Goodluck with your trip and dont forget to wave! (start at Ceduna and stop at Norseman???)

Matt.

When fueling up at Noresman - turn off the highway and go into town. Fuel is cheaper there for some reason.

I lived in Norseman and found that the BP on the corner was the worst for fuel prices and it does pay to go in to town, some people may not know but the Balladonia service station (1st stop after Norseman going East) is owned by the same owners of the Norseman BP.
Talk about a monopoly.
The other thing i found while living there was that they didnt really care about the tourist because they got most of the truckies stopping there before they headed to Perth or Adelaide.

Funny that, I was given the same advise about fuel being cheaper in town (Norseman), filled up in the middle of town and found it was considerably cheaper at the exit (I think it was Caltex, the one with the free showers - definitely NOT the BP).
I guess it changes, best advise is to shop around, its not a big town anyway.

I did this trip just on 12 months ago and agree with the comments about fuel at Norseman. It is certainly cheaper in town.
Also we found prices at Mundrabilla and and Cocklebiddy were considerable cheaper than either Eucla or Border Village. My memory tells me it was almost 20 cents difference per litre!
