Emergency Fuel Delivery in Fort Wayne, IN
Ran out of gas on I-469 or somewhere in Allen County? We bring fuel directly to you — no tow needed, no walk of shame to the nearest station.
Running out of gas in Fort Wayne — more common than you think
It’s one of those situations that feels obvious in retrospect but catches people off guard. A fuel gauge that reads slightly higher than actual, a longer drive than expected, or simply forgetting to fill up during a busy week — and suddenly you’re coasting onto the shoulder of US-30 at 7am. We handle several fuel delivery calls a week across Allen County, and the locations range from highway shoulders to neighborhood side streets to parking lots at Southgate Commerce Center and Jefferson Pointe.
The most important thing when you run out of gas on a highway is to get to the shoulder safely, keep your hazard lights on, and stay inside the car with your seatbelt on. Walking along I-469 or I-69 to find a gas station is genuinely dangerous — the shoulder is narrow and drivers don’t expect pedestrians.

Under Indiana’s 2025 towing reform law, you’re entitled to a fully itemised invoice on every tow — and the right to retrieve your vehicle by paying 70% of any disputed amount. We comply on every call.
Regular or diesel — we bring the right fuel
Putting gasoline into a diesel engine is a serious and expensive mistake. Tell us your vehicle type when you call — car, truck, or diesel — and we bring the correct fuel type. We also check the fuel door before pouring, as an extra check.
We deliver 2-3 gallons — enough to reach the nearest gas station without over-carrying fuel unnecessarily. Most deliveries in Fort Wayne happen within 15-20 minutes of the call.

Fuel delivery in Fort Wayne — answered
Enough to get you comfortably to the nearest gas station — typically 2-3 gallons of regular unleaded or diesel depending on your vehicle. We don’t fill the tank completely, just enough to get you moving safely. Let us know your fuel type when you call.
Running a fuel-injected engine completely dry can sometimes require a few extra cranking attempts to reprime the fuel system. If it still won’t start after several tries, the fuel pump may have been damaged by running dry, or there may be a separate issue. We can attempt a jump start and arrange a tow if needed — all in the same visit.
Yes — the shoulder on I-469 is narrow in several stretches, and traffic moves at highway speed. If you can safely coast to an exit ramp or a wider shoulder, do that. If not, stay in the car with your seatbelt on and hazard lights running. Call us immediately — being on a narrow interstate shoulder is one of our priority situations.
