Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Brisbane?
The lowest daily price for a rental car in Brisbane within the past seven days was AU$172. With the flexibility of having your own set of wheels, it's easy to cruise to whichever sights are calling your name.
Can I rent a car from Brisbane Airport (BNE)?
You can, and there's plenty of choice. After you touch down and collect your bags, make a beeline for the rental car centre on Level 1 of the Domestic Terminal and Level 2 of the International Terminal. Here you can get your transport sorted with reliable companies like Budget, Thrifty and Hertz. If you'd like some more options, also check out Enterprise and Europcar.
What happens if I need to cancel my Brisbane car reservation?
We know that having a bit of wiggle room is important. That's why the majority of reservations provide a full refund if you cancel six hours ahead of pickup. You may want to read over your policy though as there are some exemptions. If you can't see any details there, head to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Brisbane?
Inexpensive, a dream to handle and with excellent mileage, it's no wonder compact vehicles are the most popular home category in Brisbane. Explore this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is perfect for city escapes or short road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy model or stretch out in an intermediate, a full-size or premium --- the choice is all yours!
Where can I go on a road trip from Brisbane?
When you've been to all of the amazing attractions in Brisbane, there's more to explore in the surrounding area. Collect the keys to a rental car, toss your luggage in the trunk and get going. These are some drives we're confident you'll enjoy:

  • Gold Coast is approximately 72 kilometres from Brisbane. Top-rated tourist attractions like Warner Bros. Movie World deserve to be at the top of your list here.
  • Located 72 kilometres away, Beerwah is also a favourite with travellers. Allow time to experience Australia Zoo while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love coming to this thriving city.
  • Get into the great outdoors and take in the serenity at Bargara Beach. You'll find it roughly 306 kilometres from Brisbane.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Brisbane?
In Brisbane, the requirement is 21 years and over. Most companies will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can vary depending on the home location. Home agreements for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as specialty cars, and require the purchase of comprehensive insurance. Be sure to read the fine print carefully before choosing your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Brisbane?
While booking conditions may differ between car rental outlets in Brisbane, the basics are a current driver's license and a credit card. You don't need to take out auto insurance with your home provider. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.
What side of the road do you drive on in Brisbane?
If you take the wheel in Brisbane, you'll have to drive on the left. Take note that the driver's seat will also be on the opposite side to what you're familiar with. Consider booking a vehicle with automatic transmission to make things a little easier.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Brisbane?
You can rent a car for a month or even longer in Brisbane, so don't hestitate to extend your hard-earned holiday! Just enter your trip details into our long-term car rental deals page and find your ideal ride.
Where can I find a Brisbane car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver hoping to rent a car in Brisbane, check the policies of the various holiday home companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25  some may not. Surcharges may apply if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To escape any nasty surprises at the holiday home counter, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
