Transportation Strategies

Peak Season: Buy the Lowest Cost Fuel and Use the Preferred Fueling Network

Fuel consumption is a major talking point in today’s environment. The United States Postal Service® is always looking for ways to incorporate best practices in our day-to-day activities. As such, we are emphasizing the need for all employees to purchase regular, non-premium fuel and strongly encourage postal-owned vehicle drivers and site managers to use stations in our preferred network. Another way to improve fuel consumption is by limiting harsh starts and stops. Taking steps like these will help reduce the overall fleet spend.

The Postal Service™ routinely updates Preferred Fueling Network (PFN) agreements, so locations may change. The PFN has 24 brands with over 10,000 locations that provide discounts to the Postal Service fleet. The most current PFN brand locations are listed in the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Library. To find the nearest location, visit the FOIA website at about.usps.com/who/legal/foia/documents/pfn-locations.xlsx.

If you have questions about the PFN or need more information about local fuel retailers, send an email to USPSPreferredFuelingNetwork@usps.gov.
