Where to find Gas Cans in Fortnite

Gas Cans can be found in a variety of locations in Fortnite. Named locations are good places to look, as are bus stops and gas stations. To speed things up, we’ve marked a location on the map below. This area contains around 20 Gas Cans, all piled up in a shed. Just take care when detonating them!

Head to the location shown on the map and look for a small shed. There will be a vehicle parked nearby, as well as a few chests, and even stations where you can spend any keys that you have picked up.
