What types of cars can I rent in West Melbourne?
Inexpensive, a cinch to handle and delivering great mileage, it’s no surprise that compact vehicles are the most booked type of home in West Melbourne. Tour this city in one of these and you’ll be able to park in tight spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is ideal for city getaways or shorter road trips. But they’re not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy ride or stretch out in a full-size or premium — there’s a style of vehicle to suit you!
Where can I go on a road trip from West Melbourne?
With your own set of wheels, adventuring around the surrounding areas is as easy as putting your foot on the accelerator. West Melbourne is a great place to start, but there’s tons more to enjoy in the region. Grab the keys to a home, throw your bags in the trunk and take a peek at these other awesome locations:

  • Boasting attractions and experiences galore, Ballarat is about 97 kilometres from West Melbourne. First up on the itinerary? Make your way to Sovereign Hill, one of the city’s biggest highlights.
  • Bendigo, around 129 kilometres away, also promises a good time. Wondering what there is to see? Bendigo Art Gallery is one of our favourite stops.
  • Put some distance between you and the hustle and bustle of the city at Mount Hotham. Approximately 209 kilometres from West Melbourne, it’s a wonderful place to get a fix of nature.

What do you need to rent a car in West Melbourne?
A valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Don’t want to take out the company’s insurance plan? In that case, you may also require proof of other coverage. Requirements may differ from home company to home company, so be sure to read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in West Melbourne?
You’ll be driving on the left in West Melbourne. This means that the driver’s seat and controls are also on the opposite side to what you’re used to. Allow for ample time to familiarize yourself with your new ride before hitting the road.

Where can I find a West Melbourne car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some West Melbourne outlets will rent cars to drivers under 25 and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some businesses will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
