🛑 SERVICE UPDATE – CLOSED UNTIL MONDAY

Transwest Mungindi will be closing this evening.

Unfortunately, supply allocations aren't where they need to be for us to stay open reliably through the weekend and we do not have diesel.

It is not commercially viable for us to stay open with no fuel.

Closed: Friday Afternoon – Sunday

Re-opening: Monday

Thanks for understanding. Stay safe everyone!

We are running low at the moment and we don’t know when our next truck will be as we get it from Brisbane.

Hopefully Ben and Sam and get some action soon 💪

Please share for support.

Why a Jerry Can beats a Tanker ⛽️🚫

Ben and Sam have spent this week in high-level discussions with at Premier Minns Roundtable and one-on-one with Minister Bowen, and the reality on the ground is that towns like Mungindi and Walcha, will have no petrol in the coming days.

This is an Australia wide issue 🇦🇺

Does it make sense that someone with a 5L jerry can can buy fuel easier than someone trying to buy a tanker load to keep a regional town moving?

Right now:
❌ Brisbane: Zero petrol or diesel available for us.
❌ Newcastle: Zero petrol, and only 10% of our diesel allocation.
The impact? Today alone, we should be delivering 300,000 to 500,000 litres of fuel into regional areas.
Instead, those trucks are sitting idle because the "majors" are hoarding stock for their own city retail sites.

This isn't just a supply glitch; it’s a systemic market failure.

We are calling on the Commonwealth to trigger the Liquid Fuel Emergency (LFE) Act NOW.
• Mandate Priority Allocation: Stop the majors from "starving" regional bulk suppliers.
• Fix Credit Throttling: Stop using "frozen credit limits" as a tool to lock out independent operators.
• Stop the "Refusal to Deal": High-margin urban retail shouldn't come at the cost of regional primary production.

The National Cabinet is meeting today. They need to stop "monitoring" and start directing. Our regions can't run on "best endeavours"—they need fuel.

Please tag your local council, state and federal MP in this post, it doesn’t matter what side of politics you are on, we need your support.

❌ Supply Update ❌

Last Friday was our only delivery and we still cannot get any petrol supply from Brisbane Terminal and to run bulk fuel from Newcastle at the moment is becoming unsustainable as we are on severe supply allocations and playing supply triage for farmers across the North West.

If we are able to get some supply, the costs are almost prohibitively expensive without being accused for price gouging.

We need you all to contact your local and state members today to let them know how serious this is unfolding for Mungindi in the coming week and have these terminal fuel suppliers restore our access to full capacity.

We need the towns support now more than ever.

Please take note of current supply issues.

We will be posting later this evening with an update on our current supply at Mungindi.

08/03/2026

We were lucky enough to secure fuel for our store yesterday morning and had been without fuel most of Friday but had to pay a premium to get it.

Please don't slander our business as our main focus is to make sure we have enough fuel for local emergency services but we have no more access to Petrol at Brisbane or Newcastle terminals. This will be the last of the ULP until further notice.

Just for all the cookers out there, we have been effectively cut off from supply from the major terminals for Petrol.
