Gas prices are surging once again in West Alabama, particularly in the Tuscaloosa area, due to global supply disruptions. The prices are going up here and all around the country, with most experts blaming these disruptions for the increase.

Local Gas Prices

As of June 15, 2026, the lowest gas prices in the Tuscaloosa area can be found at Sam’s Club in Tuscaloosa at $3.24 per gallon, Circle K in Tuscaloosa at $3.25 per gallon, Murphy USA in Tuscaloosa at $3.26 per gallon, Murphy USA in Northport at $3.27 per gallon, and Marathon in Tuscaloosa at $3.27 per gallon.

The conflict in Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz have been major contributors to the global supply disruptions. Economists predict that fuel prices are likely to keep rising in 2026 due to the flow not returning to normal.
