Hartlepool

Unleaded currently varies by roughly 10p per litre between the cheapest and dearest forecourts, which is enough to notice on a full tank. The supermarket sites, including Morrisons and Asda, tend to set the floor for prices here.

3 of the 9 local forecourts are supermarket-run, and the rest split between branded and independent operators. The low end of the market has recently been held by Esso around Hartlepool Service Station.

Forecourts on Marina Way and Easington Road carry much of the passing trade, and their prices often move first. Unleaded prices around Hartlepool sit broadly in line with the rest of North East England.

For diesel, expect an average of roughly 161p per litre locally. The comparison covers stations up to roughly 8 km out, which keeps out-of-town supermarkets and bypass sites in the same view as the town centre.

The cheapest station in Hartlepool is not fixed; the low spot moves between forecourts through the week, so the current ordering matters more than habit. Use the live table for the exact prices at each site, or set an alert if you would rather be told when your usual stations drop.
