South San Francisco Fuel Prices Stay High as Bay Area Benchmarks Rise

South San Francisco drivers are seeing elevated fuel costs, with regular gasoline and diesel moving differently in the latest price checks. The 7-Eleven at 128 Harbor Way lists regular gasoline at $5.799 per gallon and diesel at $7.599, with the prices updated within 24 hours.
Local station lists gas below the metro benchmark
The Harbor Way station’s regular-gas price is slightly below AAA’s San Francisco metro benchmark of $5.829 per gallon. AAA’s figure is a metro average, not a citywide average for South San Francisco, and it does not represent every local station.
AAA’s San Francisco regular-gas benchmark was dated July 28, 2026. It was up 0.6 cents from the previous day, 11.2 cents from a week earlier, 19.6 cents from a month earlier and $1.195 from a year earlier.
Diesel is higher locally and has risen faster
Diesel is listed at $7.599 per gallon at the cited South San Francisco station. That is about 50.6 cents above AAA’s $7.093 San Francisco metro diesel benchmark.
AAA’s diesel benchmark was up 0.1 cents from the previous day, 20.1 cents from a week earlier, 41.7 cents from a month earlier and $1.740 from a year earlier. The larger diesel increase matters most for freight operators, delivery fleets, contractors, landscapers, service companies and other businesses that rely on heavier vehicles.
What higher fuel costs can mean locally
For commuters, higher regular-gas prices can add to the cost of daily driving, errands and household travel. Diesel increases can add pressure to delivery routes, contractor travel, restaurant supply runs and other commercial trips, although the available price data does not measure how South San Francisco businesses are responding.
Station prices can vary substantially within the same area. The 128 Harbor Way listing is one current local snapshot covering specific fuel grades at one location. Drivers should compare nearby stations before filling up, especially when an individual pump price is above or below the metro benchmark.
