How to book the best car rental deals in Melbourne

We’re frequently named as the most trusted travel search site out there. We scan hundreds of trusted travel providers and put it all in one place, allowing you to instantly compare car hire rates and then book with no fees. Here's how to get the most out of your Melbourne car rental search.

Book now, cancel later

We clearly highlight car and van hire options in Melbourne that have free cancellation. So you can bag the best deal with total flexibility to change your plans if you need to.

Rent a car in Melbourne for a whole month

Want to hire a car for almost a month? Often, car rental companies in Melbourne avoid costly admin in between pick-ups by hiring out cars for longer periods. So see if monthly car hire is cheaper than the three weeks you need it for by selecting 30 days.

Book 2 weeks in advance

We crunched some numbers and found that most travellers bag the lowest daily rate when they book 2 weeks in advance. The cheapest month to hire a car in Melbourne is May.

Compare fuel policies

To save money on topping up the tank as you take off in Melbourne, look out for deals with a 'full to full' fuel policy, as opposed to a 'half-full to full' one.

Skip the queues

We call out keyless pick-up when you search for cars with us. No keys to pick up, means no queues. Just turn up at your preferred Melbourne car hire location, hop in and hit the road.
