What drivers in Orkney should know

Brands represented locally include Eday Community Enterprise LTD, Esson's Garage Ltd, Highland fuels, Olivebank, Papay community cooperative. Supermarket forecourts usually undercut motorway services by a wide margin, and prices in and around Orkney tend to move within a day or two of a change in the wholesale oil price. Filling up mid-week and avoiding a near-empty tank on a motorway trip are the two simplest ways to keep costs down.
