General Information

Hiring a car in Australia is a great way to experience the country at your own pace. Driving is easy with a good road network, generally light traffic and only a very few toll roads in the eastern states. Most highways and freeways are free. Possible hazards include snow or ice in winter in the snowfields. Northern tropical locations may experience flooding during the wet season (October to April). Minor country roads can be of poor quality and stray animals are a hazard in remote regions. Particular care should be taken when driving at night. Outback roads which are unsealed require 4 wheel drive hire. Book all vehicles well in advance for peak periods like Christmas, June to September in the tropics and central Australia, or special events.

Many airports now charge car hire companies an average of 10% airport service fee which applies to pick up only - making it cheaper to pick up at a city branch. Airport Pick Up Fee is advised within the booking process. For short rentals the airport pick up fee is often similar in cost to a taxi or shuttle service into the city branch. City branches are also only open in business hours while airport branches are open for all arriving and departing flights or will have a key drop facility for out of hours returns.

All states also charge stamp duty on car hire which varies from approximately 0.5% to 2% on total charges.

Insurance is included in rental rates with an excess or maximum liability payable in event of accidental damage. This excess can be reduced by payment of an additional daily amount. Insurance details are advised during the online booking process.
