We buy over 40 million litres of fuel a year

The last few years have seen some very significant changes in the distribution of fuel across the UK farming landscape in general, with some of the smaller, independent distributors taken over by larger ones, resulting in diminished competition over time. Our buyers work closely with suppliers to ensure you have delivery on time and at the right price.

Fuel and LPG

Acting on your behalf to deliver value for money on your chosen products, when you want them, Woldmarsh’s Fuel Department will do all the legwork to get you the best prices and expected delivery slot.

In a typical year, Woldmarsh buys over 40 million litres of fuel, for more than, 3,500 sites as well as 650,000 litres of Adblue. Within the agricultural sector, we are one of the largest buyers of fuel in the East Midlands and Yorkshire, enabling us to help you buy smarter in the current market.

Whether you need to fill your bulk gas storage tank, buy gas oil, derv, EN590, Kero or simply need to talk through your options, we can help. If you want to evaluate the right time to buy, our buyers are plugged in real time to the fuel markets. At any given minute we know the market trends. When an external event influences the market speculators, we know about it and see its effect on prices. If the market is going down, we can advise you to wait for the fall in price to filter through to the distributor networks. If it is going up, we can make sure your order is in before the distributors react and put their prices up.

The fuel team’s network includes 17 fuel suppliers and the biggest two bulk gas suppliers in the UK, as well as four bottle gas suppliers and nine wood pellet/chip providers.

With the inside track on daily fuel prices and delivery windows, even for members who need urgent fuel deliveries, our experienced fuel team can support Woldmarsh members with:

  • Product information
  • Fuel cards prices
  • Gas prices - bulk and bottles
  • Delivery times and expectations
  • Renewables - including wood pellets and wood chip

Fuel Cards

If you're looking for a convenient way to pay for a track fuel expenses, as well as save costs and add another level of security, fuel cards could be for you.

A highly accessible and accepted way to pay for fuel, fuel cards will allow you to manage fuel expenses, track usage, and streamline operations related to vehicle and equipment fueling. Here at Woldmarsh, we have multiple options for members to choose from, including cards that can be used at supermarkets or via outlet chains such as Keyfuels.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      To help you make up your mind, here's a list of commonly asked questions from people before they become members. Take a look, but do reach out if you have anything else you'd like to know.
      I'm interested in joining - what do I do next?

      Our professional and friendly team in Membership Services would love to talk to you.

      Simply fill in the online contact form , or call 01507 602396, option 4 / email membership@woldmarsh.com to take the first step in becoming a member.

      We'll then discuss what you're looking for and how we can help you.

      How long does the application process take?

      Once we have been to see you and submitted your application then the process is quite speedy.

      What do I need to provide?

      At the enquiry stage we simply need to know a little bit about you and our team will then be in touch.  If you choose to go ahead, you'll need to send our external accountants 2 years of audited accounts (we don't see these).

      Who will see my accounts?

      The only people who see these are our external accountants.

      Can I speak to an existing member?

      Of course, we have several regional Ambassadors who would be delighted to share their experience with you.  Alternatively, we have many other members, who would be happy to help.

      Do I have to buy everything I need through Woldmarsh?

      No, there is no upfront commitment to purchase when you choose to work with Woldmarsh. The higher the spend through your account, the lower the levy rate you are charged, the cost of being a member is therefore based on your turnover through the group.

      Can you offer payment terms?

      Working with a multitude of suppliers means we are often able to work collaboratively with them to offer payment options to members. If you are looking to manage your input payments, just ask. Our friendly team of experts is always here to help.

      Do you offer rebates on machinery and equipment?

      Of course. We have schemes in place with a number of suppliers who offer rebates to Woldmarsh members, with all rebates returned directly to you.

      What geographical area do you cover?

      We have members throughout the UK, although predominantly based in the east of England. Our office is based in Louth, Lincolnshire and from here we service all our members.

      How much does it cost to join?

      There is a one-off joining fee of £250 + VAT and thereafter a minimum quarterly charge for the extensive service we offer which is outlined in our membership pack. This is, on average less than 1% of a member’s annual spend.

      Do members have responsibility for each others' bad debts?

      No. All our members contribute to the Woldmarsh Contingency Fund (£8/month for the first five years of membership, reducing to £4/month thereafter), in the event of a bad debt this fund would be used.

      How do I buy products and services through Woldmarsh?

      There are many ways you can buy products and services through Woldmarsh.

      • You can speak to a supplier directly and ask for an invoice to be booked to your Woldmarsh account.
      • Ask the office to arrange quotes for a product or service, you confirm which one you would like to proceed with and we place the order with the supplier.
      • Ask your agronomist to liaise directly with our Crop Inputs team and order chemicals, seed and fertiliser on your behalf.

      Our specialist teams will review product quality, supply availability and price to get the right deal for you. Every time.
