Question 1

How do I find which petrol stations have no fuel near me?

Accepted Answer

FuelAlert.io shows a live map of petrol station fuel availability based on crowdsourced reports. Open the map, allow location access or search for your area, and stations will be colour-coded: green means fuel is available, yellow means low stock, and red means out of fuel.

Question 2

Which petrol stations are out of fuel right now?

Accepted Answer

Check the FuelAlert.io map for real-time outage reports. Red markers indicate stations reported as out of fuel. Reports are submitted by the community and updated in real time, so you can see the latest status before you drive.

Question 3

How do I report a fuel outage or shortage?

Accepted Answer

Tap any station marker on the map, then tap 'Report Status'. Select the fuel types affected, set their status (available, low, or out), and submit. No login or account is needed. Your report helps other drivers avoid empty stations.

Question 4

Does FuelAlert.io work in Australia, New Zealand, and the UK?

Accepted Answer

Yes. FuelAlert.io covers petrol stations across Australia (all states and territories), New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. The map loads stations from OpenStreetMap and enriches them with live fuel price data where available (e.g. WA FuelWatch, NSW FuelCheck, QLD fuel prices).

Question 5

Is FuelAlert.io free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, FuelAlert.io is completely free. No account, login, or app download is required. It works in any modern web browser on your phone or computer.

Question 6

How accurate are the fuel outage reports?

Accepted Answer

Reports are crowdsourced from real drivers visiting stations. Each report is timestamped, and older reports automatically expire so the map stays current. The more people who report, the more accurate the data becomes for everyone.
