Sheboygan County Gas & Diesel Watch: Regular Gas Climbs to $4.447, Diesel Reaches $5.578
Sheboygan, WI — May 3, 2026.
Sheboygan-area pump prices moved higher again in AAA’s latest May 3 check. Regular gas is now $4.447 a gallon, and diesel has climbed to $5.578. Since the last Sheboygan Life fuel-price check on May 1, regular is up 15.7 cents and diesel is up 34.9 cents.
What changed at the pump
Regular gas is still edging higher, but diesel is the bigger pressure point for local drivers. Diesel is now back above $5.50, which matters for contractors, delivery fleets, farm equipment, school and service vans, and anyone who burns a lot of fuel in a workday. For households and commuters, the higher regular price means school runs, errands, and weekday driving are costing more than they did at the end of April.
How Sheboygan compares
Against the last local snapshot, regular gas is up 3.2 cents from yesterday, 51.2 cents from a week ago, 59.2 cents from a month ago, and $1.468 from a year ago. Diesel is up 9.2 cents from yesterday, 69.9 cents from a week ago, 77.9 cents from a month ago, and $2.352 from a year ago.
Sheboygan regular gas is a little above Wisconsin’s $4.371 average, while diesel is essentially right in line with the state average of $5.584. The EIA’s latest national fuel update adds broader context: gasoline and diesel markets remain elevated, so local drivers are still feeling spring pressure at the pump.
What local drivers should watch
If you are planning a heavier driving week, it may be worth checking a few stations before you fill up. Even small price gaps add up for commuters and work trucks, and diesel users are feeling the sharper squeeze right now. Restaurants, service businesses, contractors, delivery drivers, farmers, and weekend travelers will all notice the higher fuel bill if prices stay near these levels.
