Cheap gas on Maui - well, cheaper anyway.

maui oil company kahului maui - cheap gas

Where to buy your gas on Maui:

Maui Oil Company  808 871-6220

16 Hobron Lane, Kahului HI 96732

If you want to save money on your gas purchases on Maui, your best bet is to have an account with Maui Oil Company.  Once you have an account, you can use their gas pumps to fill up and get billed once a month.  You'll find that the gas here is about 20 cents a gallon cheaper than most other gas stations on the island.  That's my husband filling his barrels for the tractor.  You can buy your farm grade diesel here too, as well as grease and oil for your heavy equipment.

Here in Hawaii we have expensive gas prices compared with the mainland states.  The prices also vary from island to island, with the small islands of Molokai and Lanai generally paying a little more than us on Maui.  We don't have Costco gas pumps, so Maui Oil is a great alternative for those of us who like to save.  When I filled up on New Year's Eve, I paid $3.659/gallon.  I probably would have paid $3.85 anywhere else.  Ace Hardware in Kula, and Hanzawa's Store in Haiku are usually good places to buy your gas for a few cents cheaper than the other guys, if you're not "in town".

car wash in the central area of Maui

Maui Oil also has a nice new car wash that recycles water.  They say they've been doing about 400 cars a day.  It's the kind you drive into and park, and the machine moves around the car.  It's a pretty big deal over here!  With the car wash you can vacuum out your car for free.

If you live here, or if you're thinking of moving to Maui, give these guys a call and set up an account.  They're good people to know.

If you're looking to relocate to Maui, please let me help you find the right home that suits your needs.

Great post Georgina!  Right now I wish I lived in Maui.  The weather here in the Puget Sound area is pretty depressing today - 40 degrees and pouring down rain.  My wife and I took our son to Maui last January (my first visit to Hawaii) and we loved it.  The weather was in the low 80's, sunny, and not a drop of rain the whole week.  I look forward to visiting again soon.

Hi Kevin, I'm glad you had a good time on your first trip to Maui.  It can be tedious living through those wet coast winters, been there done that.  Maybe you need to plan another island vacation!

Sneaky, sneaky!  Georgina, thanks for responding to my question, and leading me to your post!

Hi Mike, glad you made it.  Do you think our gas is expensive?

01/04/2008 03:33 AM by Georgina Hunter Maui Realtor (Jim Sanders Realty Inc. - Maui)


Georgina, I'll answer for Mike. Hell yes it's expensive, but that's a small price to pay for paradise, Besides, how far can you drive?

Bill - you'd be surprised just how far you CAN drive, when driving in circles around the island.  I enjoy the days when I can stay home and work from my home office though.  I haven't started my car in 2 days. but I'm getting plenty of work done.

I am amazed that someone hasn't tried to bring in cheaper gas.  They would do well for sure.

Georgina,

I would LOVE to get my gas on Maui!  Actually.... I'd love to be able to get everything in Maui!  Especially now since its 25 degrees outside.

Great information for your relocation clients.  How lucky are you to live in Maui!!!

01/05/2008 04:06 PM by Lake Norman Real Estate ~ Diane Aurit (RE/MAX at the Lake)


Randy - It's just not right.  It's interesting to me that the Big Island gas is so much cheaper than Maui gas.... how is that?  I think they just all gang up over here and do a little price fixing.

Martin - good point - I am happy to have the ability to buy gas on Maui, at any price!

Diane - yup, we have a saying here - "lucky we live Hawaii."  I hope this info doesn't scare them away!  : )

I my have to take the Super Ferry over to get gas....if the price of the ferry goes down a little!

Aloha for Kailua!

Zina - lol - have you ridden the superferry yet?
