Toowoomba's position as the Darling Downs' major service centre and its location on key national freight routes means fuel is both a major household and business cost for the region. Toowoomba petrol prices generally track Queensland prices, though with some regional variation compared to Brisbane.
Toowoomba follows Queensland's price cycle. Tuesday and Wednesday typically offer the cheapest prices. The Toowoomba CBD and inner suburbs have strong retail competition from major fuel chains and independent servos, making it worth comparing prices before filling up.
The Commonwealth fuel excise of approximately 48.8 cents per litre applies across Toowoomba. The Toowoomba Second Range Crossing has improved freight efficiency through the city, which may gradually contribute to more competitive local fuel supply costs over time.
