Is it worth refueling here as a cross-border commuter?

For Socar, Bellinzona (Bellinzona), read the price together with the address, fuel type and observation date. Rankings cover only sampled stations and do not guarantee complete coverage. The cheapest listed pump may be far from your usual route. Check the map, opening hours and displayed pump price before travelling; a lower price per litre does not by itself establish a lower total journey cost.

The TCS radar collects user-reported prices. Collection time records when we read the data, not when the operator changed its price. A station appearing in this sample does not guarantee that the displayed price is still valid at the pump.

An Italy–Switzerland comparison needs the same fuel, comparable dates and one currency. Record the CHF/EUR exchange rate and its date, including any payment conversion costs. A zone average describes the sample, not the price at every pump. A difference between two averages does not guarantee a saving at a particular station or establish which side is always cheaper.

Hypothetical consumption example: 80 km per day, 6 litres per 100 km and 22 days produce 105.6 litres per month. These are assumptions, not measured typical commuting distances or consumption. Replace them with your actual kilometres, fuel consumption and working days, then multiply the litres by your chosen station price. The result estimates fuel only and is not a forecast of total commuting expenditure.

To assess a detour, multiply the price difference in one currency by the litres you intend to buy. Subtract fuel for extra kilometres, any tolls and other actual costs. The value of time depends on your needs; there is no universal break-even threshold. Assess maintenance, insurance and other vehicle costs separately, without treating them as automatic deductions from salary taxes.

Diesel for cross-border workers: reading Socar's price in Bellinzona

The observed diesel price at Socar in Bellinzona is 2.290 CHF/litre. The average for sampled stations in Bellinzona is 2.324 CHF/litre.

An Italian comparison needs a price for the same fuel and a comparable observation period. Convert both values to the same currency using a dated CHF/EUR exchange rate, then multiply the difference by your planned litres. The driver’s salary does not change the pump price. Subtract fuel, tolls and other detour costs from potential savings; the value of time depends on personal circumstances. No universal maximum distance or salary threshold makes refuelling on either side of the border worthwhile.

The Swiss source is the TCS radar, based on user reports. The collection time in the station information records when the data was read, not when the operator changed its price. Rebuilding this page does not refresh the observation. Before travelling, also check the address and service mode; at the station, confirm the displayed pump price, which may have changed since collection.
