Hate Stopping for Gas? There's an App for That

4th Feb 2016

You were stuck late at the office, again. Sitting in traffic on the way home, you realize you’ll need to fill up on gas for tomorrow’s commute. Ugh. What if the fuel pump could come to you? That’s the idea behind a handful of new phone-driven services cropping up across the United States, including Palo Alto, California-based Filld.

After downloading an app, drivers can pinpoint their car’s location on a map and order gas delivery for a certain window of time. A truck arrives and a trained driver fills the tank. In the case of Filld, which currently operates in Silicon Valley and offers both regular and premium unleaded gas, the price per gallon is based on an average from nearby stations, plus a $5 delivery fee.
