Fuel Delivery, Explained

From scheduling to a full tank, here's exactly how Kinetic Fueling works.

The process, step by step

1

Download the app and create an account

Sign up with your email and add your vehicle details: make, model, year, and fuel type. We carry regular unleaded (87) at launch, with premium (93), diesel, and E0 on the way.

2

Set your delivery location

Enter the address where your car will be parked: your home, apartment complex, or workplace. You can save multiple locations and switch between them anytime.

3

Choose a delivery window

Pick a 2-hour window that works for you. Overnight windows are our most popular. Schedule before bed and wake up with a full tank.

4

We fuel your vehicle

A Kinetic certified driver arrives during your window with a licensed fuel transport vehicle, opens your fuel door (no key needed for most vehicles), and fills your tank to the level you specified.

5

Get a receipt and move on

You'll receive a push notification and email receipt showing gallons delivered, fuel grade, and total cost. That's it. No trip to the station, no waiting in line.

Safety first, always

Certified drivers

Every Kinetic driver completes a background check and state-mandated hazmat training before their first delivery.

DOT-compliant vehicles

Our transport vehicles meet all DOT regulations for carrying and dispensing flammable liquids.

No key required

We never ask for your keys. Deliveries are designed to work with the fuel door only, so full vehicle security is maintained.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be present when my car is fueled?

No. Your car just needs to be parked at the address you provided with the fuel door accessible. No key handoff required.

Is it safe to fuel a parked car?

Yes. Our drivers are trained and certified in mobile fuel delivery, following all state and local fire safety codes. We use DOT-compliant transport vehicles and follow a strict safety checklist on every delivery.

What if my fuel door is locked?

Most vehicles with a standard fuel door release lever inside the cabin just need the door unlocked slightly, and we provide instructions in the app for your specific vehicle. If yours requires a key, we'll note that and work with you.

What fuel types do you carry?

At launch we carry regular unleaded (87). Premium (93), diesel, and E0 (ethanol-free) are on the way, in that order.

What areas do you serve?

We're launching in Harford County, Maryland in September 2026, with plans to expand to surrounding counties in 2027.

How is fuel priced?

Fuel is priced within 20 cents per gallon of the local average at time of delivery. Members pay no delivery fee, while pay-per-use is $12 per delivery.
