Bulk diesel delivery by truck
GCITI delivers bulk commercial diesel by road on its own trucks, across four of its Guyana locations. Road delivery suits sites a loaded vehicle can reach and fixed tanks it can discharge into — and where it cannot, the same order goes by water instead.
What your site needs
Most failed road deliveries fail on the ground, not on the fuel. Six things decide whether a loaded truck can complete a delivery at your site — worth checking before you order rather than on the day.
- 01
A route in
A road a loaded truck can travel, and a gate or entrance it can turn through. Low branches, soft shoulders and tight corners are worth mentioning before the day rather than on it.
- 02
Somewhere to stand
Firm ground beside the tank where the truck can sit level while it discharges. Soft or waterlogged ground is the most common reason a delivery cannot be completed.
- 03
Reachable fill point
The tank's fill point within reach of the hose, and clear of anything parked or stacked in front of it.
- 04
Known tank capacity
What the tank holds and roughly what is in it, so the delivery is not planned into a space that is not there.
- 05
Someone to receive
A person on site who can direct the driver, confirm the delivery and sign for it.
- 06
A safe working area
The discharge area clear of ignition sources, vehicles and foot traffic while the transfer is under way.
If any of these is a problem, say so in the enquiry. It is much cheaper to plan around than to discover with a loaded vehicle at your gate.
When road is the right mode
Fixed tanks
Where you are filling storage rather than taking fuel afloat.
Recurring supply
Standing requirements planned around your consumption.
Coastal and inland routes
Across the areas GCITI works, alongside water where the route calls for it.
And when it is not — a site off the road network, or one reached across water — the order goes by vessel. How the two compare.
How a road delivery is arranged
- 01
Send the site
Address or location, volume, your tank, and how a vehicle reaches you.
- 02
We check access
Whether the road, the entrance and the standing ground work for a loaded delivery — and if not, whether water does.
- 03
Quote
Priced against the volume, the destination and the market on the day.
- 04
Delivery
On GCITI's own trucks, to the site you specified.
- 05
Sign-off
Quantity confirmed and the delivery documented with whoever receives it.
Where road delivery runs
Road delivery covers Parika, the Essequibo Coast and Berbice. Region 1 and Bartica are supplied by water.
- Parika Headquarters and wharf
- Essequibo Coast Depot
- Berbice Delivery area
- Bartica Depot and marine fuel
- Region 1 Depot
Deliveries run on GCITI's own trucks rather than a subcontractor's, so the people who take your order are the people who move the fuel.
Questions buyers ask about road delivery
Does GCITI deliver diesel by road?
Yes. GCITI runs 5 company-owned trucks and delivers by road to Parika, the Essequibo Coast and Berbice — it does not subcontract the delivery to somebody else’s vehicle.
What does my site need for a road delivery?
A road and entrance a loaded truck can use, firm level ground beside the tank, a fill point the hose can reach, a known tank capacity, someone on site to receive, and a clear working area during the transfer.
What if a truck cannot reach my site?
Then it goes by water. That is the whole reason GCITI runs vessels as well as trucks — the mode is chosen against your site rather than assumed, and a site a truck cannot reach is not a site we have to turn away.
How much can you deliver in one road delivery?
It is confirmed against your tank and your site when we quote. What you can receive into, and how quickly it takes it, matters as much as what the vehicle carries.
Do you deliver to every area by road?
Road delivery covers Parika, the Essequibo Coast and Berbice. Region 1 sits beyond practical trucking distance. Bartica is reached up the Essequibo, where GCITI's depot is supplied by vessel and marine fuel is sold to boats. That is why GCITI operates vessels as well as trucks.
Can I set up recurring road deliveries?
Yes. Say so in the enquiry and it is planned around your consumption and your tank rather than reordered from scratch each time.
How far in advance should I order?
As early as you can, and tell us your date window. Timing is confirmed with the quote rather than published as a standard, because it depends on the destination and the volume.
