  • Book early to lock in the best price for a Marcoola car hire. On top of better deals, you'll be choosing from the full lineup, not what's left.

  • Explore the offers available from well-known providers like Sixt.

  • Always check if a collision damage waiver (CDW) is part of your Marcoola car hire policy, whether with Sixt or another supplier. Some companies treat it as an optional extra instead of bundling it in.

  • Choosing a one-way car hire is often a great hack for cheaper deals. Check 'Return car to a different location.' Providers often need to move vehicles between locations, which means you can lock in some great one-way prices on a car for rent in Marcoola.

Insurance and optional extras

  • Make your trip smoother when you rent a car in Marcoola by adding a few nifty extras. Think things like a navigation system to make sure you never miss a turn, or reverse cameras that make parking feel effortless.

Good to know

  • Check each supplier's age requirements before booking your rental in Australia. Rules can differ, and some restrictions or fees may apply if you're a younger driver. At the start of your search, just uncheck the 'Driver aged between 25–70' box and enter your age to browse your options.

  • Add a car seat to your Marcoola car hire reservation if you're planning to travel with the kids. Guidelines vary from place to place, but using a child seat suited to their size, weight and age is always the safest choice.

  • Bring the right documents and save time at pick-up. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (no digital copies) and a second photo ID. Also bring along a credit card with room for the security hold. If extra documents are required, they'll be listed in your booking.

  • If it's your first time driving in Australia, don't forget that traffic here sticks to the left side of the road.

  • Local speed limits may vary, but it's typically around 45kph in built-up areas and 95kph or so on highways. Always go with what's posted on the road signs.

  • A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.05% applies in Australia. The only guaranteed way to stay safe to drive is to avoid alcohol completely.

  • Aim to travel outside heavy traffic periods for a smoother run. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • The Australian dollar (AUD) is the currency you'll be using for day-to-day expenses and activities. Use cards when you can, but have some cash handy when electronic payments aren't available.

  • English is the language spoken by most people in this country.
