Diesel cost per gallon in Arkansas
What readers paid for diesel in Arkansas
Prices readers report from the pump: what they paid, where, and how they paid. Each one is a single fill on the date shown, not a survey average; the weekly EIA figures elsewhere on this page are the survey.
No reader has reported a price in Arkansas yet. Yours would be the first.
What did you pay for diesel?
Tell us the price at your last fill and see how it compares with the government survey for your state. Your report goes on this site as a dated reader report; we publish your state and the first three digits of your ZIP, nothing else.
No account, no email. Prices far outside the usual range for your state are checked before they appear. See our privacy policy.
Read this as a district figure, not a state figure. The EIA weekly on-highway diesel survey prices the United States, its districts and California, and nothing else. It does not price Arkansas. The number above is Gulf Coast (PADD 3), series EMD_EPD2D_PTE_R30_DPG, and it is the closest published federal figure for Arkansas. We do not estimate a price for Arkansas from it. 3 of Arkansas's neighbouring states sit in the same district and therefore show the same price below.
EIA does not publish a weekly on-highway diesel price for Arkansas. The federal survey prices the district Arkansas sits in, Gulf Coast (PADD 3), at $5.951 per gallon in the week of October 26, 2026 (series EMD_EPD2D_PTE_R30_DPG), $0.40 below the US average of $6.352. Pump prices inside the district vary around that figure.
Diesel tax breakdown
Interstate trucks (IFTA): 28.5c a gallon for October to December 2026.
1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027; the wholesale part is reset each 1 October.
Checked 22 October 2026 against Arkansas DFA, 2026 Motor Fuels Tax Rate Announcement (31 July 2026). Local and county taxes are not included. The percentage is against the EIA figure shown above, which is a district figure unless Arkansas is surveyed directly.
Neighbouring states
Neighbours in the same EIA district carry the same published figure. A matching price here means the federal survey shows no measured gap across that border, not that pumps are identical.
Off-road (dyed) diesel in Arkansas
Red-dyed diesel is the same fuel as clear diesel, sold without highway fuel taxes for uses off the public road. How Arkansas treats it, checked 25 October 2026. Rules for every state are on the off-road diesel guide.
Sources: Arkansas DFA, Special Motor Fuels Tax Law; Arkansas DFA, 2026 Motor Fuels Tax Rate Announcement. Some Arkansas details rest on statute text without a published state guide, so check with the state revenue department before relying on them. This is a summary, not legal or tax advice.
The trip calculator starts at $5.95/gal, the EIA figure above. Change it to the price you actually see at the pump for a real answer.
