Out of Gas Right Now? Do This First
If your vehicle is running on fumes or has already stopped, follow these steps immediately:
- Don’t keep driving on empty. Continuing to run a fuel-starved engine especially a diesel can damage the fuel pump and injectors. As soon as the low fuel warning appears and you can’t reach a station, it’s time to call for delivery.
- Pull over safely. Move as far right as possible onto the shoulder, a side street, or a parking lot. On highways like the Henday or the QEII, get as far from the driving lane as you can before your engine loses power. Use remaining momentum to coast to safety.
- Turn on your hazard lights. Make your vehicle visible to other drivers, especially at night or in low-visibility conditions.
- Stay in your vehicle if you’re on a high-speed road. It is safer than standing outside near traffic.
- Call Tuber Towing: 587-598-8237. Tell our dispatcher your location and your fuel type. We’ll dispatch the right technician to you immediately.
What Is Emergency Fuel Delivery?
Emergency fuel delivery is a roadside assistance service where a trained technician drives to your exact location and adds enough fuel to your vehicle to get it running again either to reach the nearest gas station or, in some cases, to complete your trip. It eliminates the need to walk to a station, flag someone down, or wait for a tow when all your vehicle actually needs is fuel.
Tuber Towing’s fuel delivery service is available across Edmonton and surrounding communities around the clock. We don’t limit this to business hours or fair-weather conditions. Edmonton winters are among the harshest in Canada, and a fuel emergency on a January night on the Yellowhead Trail is exactly when this service matters most.
Fuel Types We Deliver
Regular Gasoline
The most common delivery request. If your vehicle runs on regular unleaded gasoline, we deliver enough to get you to the nearest station safely. When you call, confirm you need gasoline so our technician arrives with the correct fuel putting the wrong fuel type into a vehicle can cause serious engine damage.
Diesel
Diesel vehicles including diesel trucks, SUVs, and commercial vans require diesel fuel delivery specifically. We carry diesel for exactly this reason. Edmonton’s commercial and industrial corridor means we receive a meaningful number of diesel delivery calls, particularly around Acheson, Nisku, and the Yellowhead corridor. When you call, let our dispatcher know your vehicle runs on diesel.
Premium Gasoline
Some high-performance and luxury vehicles require premium fuel (91 or higher octane). If your vehicle specifies premium, mention it when you call, this helps us ensure you receive the correct fuel grade for your engine.
What About Wrong Fuel?
If you’ve accidentally put the wrong fuel type into your vehicle, for example, gasoline into a diesel engine do not start the engine. Wrong fuel contamination is a separate situation from running out of fuel, and it requires a different response. Call us at 587-598-8237 and describe what happened. Depending on the situation, a tow to a mechanic for fuel system flushing may be the appropriate step.
How Our Fuel Delivery Service Works
The process is designed to be as fast and simple as possible:
- You call 587-598-8237. A live Tuber Towing dispatcher answers, no automated system, no voicemail.
- Tell us where you are and what you drive. Your location, vehicle type, and fuel type are all we need to dispatch the right technician with the right fuel. If you’re not sure exactly where you are, describe what you can see a nearby intersection, highway exit, landmark, or business name.
- We dispatch immediately. The nearest available technician with the appropriate fuel is sent to your location. We provide an estimated arrival time and can update you while en route.
- Our technician arrives and refuels your vehicle. The fuel is added safely and correctly. We check that your vehicle starts and runs properly before leaving the scene.
- You’re back on the road. We deliver enough fuel to reach the nearest gas station we recommend refueling fully as soon as you arrive.
The entire process from your call to you driving away is designed to be as quick as possible. We aim for a 30-minute response time across Edmonton and nearby areas.
When Fuel Delivery Is Enough And When You Need a Tow
Fuel delivery is the right call in most “ran out of gas” situations. However, there are circumstances where a tow is the better option:
- Wrong fuel was added to the tank. Gasoline in a diesel engine (or vice versa) means the fuel system needs to be professionally drained and flushed before the vehicle can run safely. A tow to a mechanic is required not more fuel delivery.
- The vehicle had fuel but still stalled. If your tank wasn’t actually empty when your vehicle stopped running, a fuel pump failure, clogged fuel filter, or other mechanical issue may be the cause. Fuel delivery won’t fix a mechanical fuel system problem.
- The vehicle won’t start even after refueling. If our technician delivers fuel and the vehicle still won’t start, there may be a secondary issue dead battery, starter failure, or something else. In that case, we can seamlessly transition from fuel delivery to a tow, getting you to the mechanic of your choice without needing a second call.
- Fuel pump damage from running dry. Diesel engines in particular can suffer fuel pump damage when run completely dry, because the fuel itself lubricates the pump. If a diesel vehicle was run to a hard stop rather than just a low-fuel warning, a mechanical check may be warranted after refueling.
When you call us, describe what happened and our dispatcher will help you determine whether fuel delivery, a boost, or a tow is the most appropriate response for your situation.
Why Running Out of Fuel Is Especially Risky in Edmonton
Edmonton’s geography and climate create specific hazards that make running out of fuel more serious here than in many other cities:
- Extreme cold. Edmonton winters regularly reach -20°C to -35°C with wind chill. A vehicle that stops running means no heat. In these temperatures, hypothermia risk sets in quickly especially for children, elderly passengers, or anyone underdressed for an unexpected outdoor wait. Never assume “it won’t take long.”
- Highway exposure. Major routes like the Anthony Henday (ring road), Whitemud Drive, Yellowhead Trail, and the QEII between Edmonton and Leduc carry high-speed traffic with limited safe stopping zones. Breaking down on these roads even on the shoulder puts you in a vulnerable position every minute you’re there.
- Long distances between stations in outlying areas. While Edmonton proper has gas stations throughout, the communities of Acheson, the Nisku Industrial Heartland, rural Stony Plain, and stretches of the QEII can have long gaps between stations. Drivers making the trip from Edmonton toward Calgary, or commuting from Acheson, can miscalculate on these stretches more easily than they would in the city core.
- Fuel consumption spikes in cold weather. Vehicles burn more fuel in winter cold engines run rich, heating systems work harder, and idling to warm up eats through your tank faster than the warmer months. Your usual refueling habits may not account for this, particularly in the first cold snap of November.
- Low fuel warnings are delayed. Many modern vehicles show a low fuel warning when approximately 50–80 km of range remains. In winter conditions, that range estimate is often optimistic actual range in extreme cold can be significantly lower.

What if my vehicle still won’t start after you deliver fuel?
