Amenities at Petrol Bunks

Many are unaware of the free amenities at gas stations. Operators provide drinking water, restrooms, air, and fuel quality checks for free, but many customers needlessly pay elsewhere.

Mandatory Amenities

Every gas station must have a clean room with a mirror and chairs for travelers to rest. Free drinking water and clean restrooms are also mandatory, with separate facilities for women.

Emergency Numbers Required

A first-aid room or bed should be available, along with a first-aid kit and a board displaying emergency numbers for authorities, hospitals, and police. You can also have your fuel quality checked for free.

Free Tire Inflation

While separate shops usually charge for tire inflation, gas stations should offer this service for free. If the equipment is broken, owners must repair it promptly.
