The facilities here tend to have relatively large lots that make it easy to arrange the pumps in a number of different ways. While it is customary for the pumps to be aligned in the center of the property, on occasion several distinct banks of pumps will be arranged around the property, some of which align with the perimeter of the property, and others which are placed at a diagonal. The pumps themselves usually have a diesel option, although in the heart of the city the pumps may be designed to dispense regular gasoline only.

Most of the facilities here possess some degree of automation, which is to say that the pumps typically have an electronic card reader and a display panel with pricing that can be automatically updated from inside. In some rare cases, the pumps will require manual adjustment in terms of their pricing display, or they may simply be equipped to dispense gas without displaying the current price. A separate sign located at the front of the property may list the prices.

Leasing

Those who are intrigued by this vibrant city will enjoy the array of leasing options when it comes to gas stations. From clean modernist stations with floor to ceiling glass panels to charming old brick stores that have the feel of an older market, there are a number of different kinds of fueling stops in this area that can be leased for a relatively affordable rate with excellent terms. Year to year leases are available, as are multi-year contracts.

The convenience stores that often come with the central pumping area are designed to be configured to virtually any type of commercial display. While a series of refrigerated cases lining the walls are common, in some stores the cases are replaced with shelving and the refrigerated storage is relocated to the center of the store in horizontal bins that have sliding doors on top, allowing patrons to reach inside the cooler to select goods. This arrangement can be useful for dispensing dairy products and other frozen goods, although in some instances the vertically mounted cases are more efficient in terms of space.

Most of these stores allow the clerks to authorize the cash purchase of gas. The clerks are able to turn on or turn off the pumps remotely, making it easy to monitor the overall fuel usage of the facility.
