Everett-area gas holds at $5.317 while diesel reaches $6.318

Regular gasoline prices in the Everett area were nearly unchanged in the latest AAA check, while diesel continued to move higher. On August 1, 2026, the Seattle-Bellevue-Everett metro average was $5.317 per gallon for regular gas and $6.318 for diesel.

Those figures are metro averages, not an official Everett citywide average. They provide a current benchmark for drivers in the Everett area and show a sharper upward trend for diesel than for regular gasoline.

Regular gas is flat for the day but higher than last week

AAA listed regular gasoline down 0.2 cents from the previous day. That daily change is effectively flat for most drivers, but regular gas was up 0.9 cents from a week earlier.

Compared with longer-term benchmarks, regular gas was down 12.7 cents from a month earlier but up 73.5 cents from a year earlier. That year-over-year increase can add noticeably to monthly transportation costs for commuters and households that fill up several times a month.

Diesel rises across every comparison window

Diesel moved higher across all of AAA’s listed comparison periods. The metro average was up 0.7 cents from the previous day, 7.3 cents from a week earlier, 3.3 cents from a month earlier and $1.158 from a year earlier.

That trend affects more than diesel pickup owners. Contractors, delivery operators, landscapers, restaurants, service companies and other businesses that rely on commercial vehicles may face higher costs for deliveries, equipment use, service calls and material transport. The effect will vary by business and by how fuel costs are passed through to customers.

One Everett station shows why prices vary

A 7-Eleven at 607 SE Everett Mall Way listed regular gas at $5.099 per gallon and diesel at $6.299. The station page states that gas prices were updated within 24 hours.

That listing is a local station-level example, not an official Everett average, and pump prices can change during the day. At that station, regular gas was below the metro average while diesel was close to the metro benchmark. Prices at other Everett stations may be higher or lower depending on location, competition and timing.

Broader context and what drivers should watch

The U.S. Energy Information Administration reported Washington regular gasoline at $5.010 per gallon and Seattle at $5.229 in its July 27 weekly release. Those figures provide broader regional context and should not be confused with the August 1 Seattle-Bellevue-Everett metro averages or the Everett station listing.

Associated Press reporting has described broader oil-market pressure affecting consumers and businesses, but the local price data does not establish one specific cause for Everett-area movements.

For commuters, the immediate change in regular gas is limited, but the year-over-year increase still adds to household transportation costs. Weekend travelers may want to compare stations before leaving Everett, especially when planning longer trips.

Businesses with diesel-heavy fleets have more reason to monitor the trend. Higher diesel costs can affect delivery routes, contractor travel, restaurant supply runs, equipment use and other work that depends on commercial transportation.
