This 964-kilometre drive crosses into the United States 62 km after leaving Montréal, and a typical car that starts full needs one fuel stop: Mahwah, NJ (544 km in). A truck towing a trailer, at about 407 km a tank, needs two: Clifton Park, NY (330 km in) and New Brunswick, NJ (644 km in).
The longest stretch without a station within 3.2 km of the road is 47 km, from 36 km past Keeseville, NY to 4 km before Schroon Lake, NY. Stations in the US sell fuel by the US gallon (3.79 litres).

Truck towing a trailer
21.4 L/100 km, 87 L tank: about 407 km on a full tank.
| Stop | Station | From start | Tank on arrival |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Stewart's ShopsClifton Park, NY | 330 km | 19% |
| 2 | ExxonNew Brunswick, NJ | 644 km | 23% |
Arrive in Washington with about 22% of the tank.
Both plans leave Montréal with a full tank, keep 15% in reserve, fill up completely at each stop and prefer stations in or near towns, as Fillerup does by default. Stops are chosen from stations within 3.2 km of the route.
Driving back: Washington to Montréal
The drive back from Washington to Montréal is 962 km, 2 km shorter than the way there, and its longest stretch without a station within 3.2 km is the same 47 km, between 4 km past Schroon Lake, NY and 35 km before Keeseville, NY. A truck towing a trailer stops in the same places on the way back: New Brunswick, NJ and Clifton Park, NY. A typical car's stop falls in another place, because the plan starts with a full tank in Washington:

No stretch goes 72 km or more without a station within 3.2 km. A station missing from OpenStreetMap would make a stretch look longer than it is, and a mapped station may have closed, so treat these as a guide.
Stations along the way
OpenStreetMap lists 1,063 stations within 3.2 km of this route. 203 of them are in the Montréal and Washington areas; of the 860 in between, the most are in Rosedale, MD (22), Dundalk, MD (16) and Saratoga Springs, NY (13).
875 of them have a brand in the data; the most common are Sunoco (109), Shell (82) and Exxon (80).
82 are tagged as open 24/7. Stations without that tag may still be open around the clock: the data can't tell.

How this page was made
- Route: from the centre of Montréal to the centre of Washington and back, each direction routed on its own, by Geoapify routing (fetched November 12, 2026). Fillerup asks for the route again when you open the trip, so its numbers can differ a little.
- Stations: every usable fuel station in OpenStreetMap within 3.2 km of the route (private, disused and truck-only ones left out), from Fillerup’s station data as of November 11, 2026.
- Stops: Fillerup’s own planner, with the two vehicles above, each way from a full tank. Its picks favour stations in towns over isolated pumps, so a stop can come earlier than the tank strictly needs.
- The Montréal and Washington areas: within 75 km of Montréal and 74 km of Washington, the distance within which Fillerup’s route selection counts a city as part of the metro (it grows with the metro’s population), leaving out places nearer another metro’s centre or across a border.
- Not covered: fuel prices, opening hours beyond the 24/7 tag, road conditions, closures and detours.
