Fuel GCR

I would hazard a guess that once you leave Laverton if you're lucky, then your fuel cards will be of little use until you get to Alice Springs. Then probably the same situation from Alice to possibly Boulia or Winton. Also away from the mainstream towns you will encounter Opal non-aromatic fuel. You did not state if you have diesel or petrol. Regardless of the fuel situation enjoy the drive, we have travelled both roads quite a bit and it is always interesting. We are coming to Perth in December so can give you updates of the GCR if you like.

There is a Shell at Yulara, so you could use your card there.Caltex in Winton too. Think Boulia only has Choice now.

In mid-January, need to keep an eye on Georgina River, at Glenormiston. Usually plenty of reports available if it's over the road.

Sandover H'way is also an option, as long as you go up through Austral Downs, onto the Barkly H'way. Think fuel might be available at Alparra store. Might pay to ring Austral (07 47484811), if you decided to go this way. Any sign of storms, then would pay to go around Stuart/Barkly route.

Most of these fuel companies will provide the outlet information online, some like Shell will even give you he GPS coordinates.

Using both these and a bit of your time, you should have all the information that you need.

G'day mate,
There are no options for fuel cards of any brand on the GCR. For shell and Caltex, you're last chance is Leonora, then again at Yulara.
Choice at Boulia used to take Caltex cards, not sure if they still do.

Cheers
