Preston · Accepting Orders
Compass Fuels is based in Penwortham, minutes south of the Ribble. Preston is home for us, and it’s where our response times are at their sharpest. Heating oil for character properties across Fulwood and Ashton, red diesel for contractors working the M6 and M55 junctions, bulk DERV for haulier depots at Roebuck and Bamber Bridge, and same-day cover where possible. Local depot, local drivers, local answers on the phone.
Why Preston is Different
We’re based at Crossley House on Leyland Road in Penwortham (PR1 9QP). If you’re in Preston, you’re closer to our depot than most of our other customers anywhere in the country. That means shorter lead times, tighter delivery windows and a driver on the phone who genuinely knows your streets. Preston is also a Central Lancashire hub for haulage and distribution, sitting on the M6, M55 and M65 with Ribble Valley farms on the eastern edge and Fylde Coast fleets to the west.

M6 J31 through J32, M55 J1 and the M65 westbound terminus all within easy reach.
Preston Docklands and Riversway commercial estates for fleet operators.
Ribble Valley farm belt starting at Longridge, Ribchester and Grimsargh.
How We Operate
If you need something in Preston, we’re already close by. That means shorter windows, better slot availability and a driver who probably knows the postcode without looking it up. For fleet customers, we can build a scheduled programme so tanks never dip below a working level.

● Emergency
Real Situations
If you’ve run out, or you’re close, call us. Local depot means we can usually get to Preston faster than anywhere else in the network. We handle same-day emergency drops, out-of-hours requests for critical situations, and priority response for care homes, farms and vulnerable customers.
Character property with a low tank refilled the same morning after a supply squeeze.
Bulk DERV drop to a haulier caught short before a scheduled night trunk.
Farm red diesel restored during a wet week when contractors couldn’t finish silaging.
Supply Reality
Preston benefits from being on the trunk routes, but that doesn’t mean supply is bulletproof. When national suppliers restrict allocations, the surrounding rural belt through the Ribble Valley gets deprioritised first. We source nationally when local terminals tighten, and being based in Penwortham means we’re set up to keep going through the worst weather weeks. If we’re delivering across the country from here, we’re not going to leave our home city short.
