How old do you have to be to rent a car in Port Melbourne?
Drivers aged 21 and above can hit the highway in Port Melbourne in a rental car. If you’re a young driver, a daily surcharge applies. You’ll usually have fewer car categories to pick from, such as economy and mid-size, and may also have to buy inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any restrictions or surcharges apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Port Melbourne?
Before you can take the wheel in Port Melbourne, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card. If you prefer not to take out the company’s insurance plan, you may also have to provide proof of your own coverage. Requirements may vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you select a home provider.
What side of the road do you drive on in Port Melbourne?
In Port Melbourne and across Australia, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. This in itself can be daunting, but the driver’s seat and some controls are also on the opposite side to what you’re used to. For a safer ride, take things slow at first and allow yourself extra time to arrive at your destination.
What is the cheapest car rental in Port Melbourne?
The two cheapest daily rates recorded in Port Melbourne within the past seven days were AU$81 and AU$183. Now that’s what we’d call a great deal! These rates were available on Expedia, with a home starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Port Melbourne?
Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then choose a ride that suits. Whether you’re basing yourself in Port Melbourne or discovering beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term home at an amazing rate.
Where can I find a Port Melbourne car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between holiday home companies, so you’ll have to do a bit of homework. Found a Port Melbourne supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific news! Just be aware that some companies charge extra fees to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each holiday home car you’re interested in should have all the details you need.
