Castlemaine fuel market analysis

Castlemaine currently lists unleaded 91 across 3 stations with an average of 268.7¢/L. The cheapest published ULP in the suburb is 253.0¢/L while the dearest is 300.0¢/L — a 47.0¢/L spread that rewards a two-minute comparison before you commit to Shell.

Diesel listings in Castlemaine average 296.0¢/L across 2 reporting sites, with a low of 295.0¢/L. Towing, ute, and delivery drivers should compare diesel separately because it does not always move in lockstep with unleaded during Melbourne cycle peaks.

Premium grades in Castlemaine average about 283.3¢/L where stations publish 95 or 98 octane. Shell drivers running manufacturer-spec premium should check both premium columns on the suburb comparison table — the cheapest premium site is not always the cheapest unleaded site.

Against the Melbourne metro ULP reference (188.1¢/L), Shell sits 111.9¢/L above the board average today. That context helps you judge whether this forecourt is early- or late-cycle without relying on interstate benchmarks — our data is Victoria-only.

Melbourne-wide unleaded has firmed about 3.2¢/L comparing the last seven snapshot days with the prior week. When the metro average shifts, Castlemaine stations usually follow within a short window — watching both this station page and the Castlemaine suburb board keeps you ahead of a sudden cycle rise.
