Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda and Morrisons will shut forecourts before some reopen in the evening.
Petrol stations at the UK's major supermarkets will be closed for most of the day of the Queen's funeral, before some reopen in the evening.
It is understood only a small number of Tesco self service fuel stations will reopen in the evening and customers have been advised to check local pumps.Independent traders operate about two-in-three of the country's filling stations, but only sell just over a third of all fuel, and the remainder is accounted for by sites owned by oil companies, according to the RAC motoring group.
The Petrol Retailers Association, which represents independent fuel retailers, has been contacted for comment.Morrisons said that while all of its supermarkets will be closed on Monday as a "mark of respect and so colleagues can pay tribute to Her Majesty", its petrol stations would reopen at 17:00. Sainsbury's said its filling stations will be open from 17:00 to 22:00 on Monday to allow customers to "pick up essential items".Major shops and businesses across the UK have announced they will shut their doors as a mark of respect for Queen Elizabeth II on the day of her funeral.
