Local expert tips for hiring a car in Sydney

  • Toll payments

    Many of Sydney’s highways and tunnels, including the iconic Harbour Bridge, require toll payments. Don’t forget to discuss toll payment options with your vehicle provider upon pickup.

  • Peak hour traffic

    Sydney is a bustling city and traffic can be heavy during peak traffic times. Allow for additional travel time when driving in the city from 6:30 am to 9:30 am, and from 2:00 pm to 7:00 pm.

  • Parking discounts and pre-booking offers

    Parking can be expensive in Sydney, so make sure to check online for special offers or discounts, as many parking operators will offer a lower price for pre-booking online. We have listed down some options if you need to park at Sydney Airport.

  • Flexible one-way car rentals

    Planning to get a one-way car rental for an interstate trip? You can book a hire car in Sydney and return it to another location. Just untick the “Return to the same location” option in our search form and select your preferred return location.

  • First time driving in Sydney?

    If this is your first time driving in Sydney, aside from the city’s many toll roads, please note that in New South Wales, U-turns are not permitted at traffic lights. Also, Sydney is a popular city for cyclists, so be sure to be a cyclist-aware driver.

  • Save on fuel cost

    It’s important to return your hire car with a full tank of fuel to avoid extra fees. With so many service stations in Sydney, it can be hard to know where to find the best deal on petrol. Luckily, we’ve got you covered with our free fuel price comparison app.

  • Is it cheaper to book a weekly car rental in Sydney?

    The per-day rates of some rental cars may fall if you book for a longer rental period. Prices often change around daily, three-day, five-day and seven-day periods. Also, note that the selection of rental cars available in Sydney may be more limited if you are looking for a long-term car rental, so it’s best to compare a few different booking durations first.

  • Will it be easy to collect my rental car in Sydney?

    Some Sydney City car hire providers have depots that are easier to find and get to than others. Most of the depots within the city area are found in car parks or hotels. If you can collect a car outside of the CBD area, you may find it easier to access the car hire depot. You can check the depot addresses above to determine if you will be within walking distance of a car rental depot based on your accommodation location.

  • Do I need a rental car in Sydney?

    Travellers are recommended to book a hire car in Sydney if they plan to venture to the outskirts of the CBD or further. Within the CBD there are public transport options and it is quite walkable. Public transport like ferries, buses and trains can also help get you to areas outside of the CBD, however, a rental car will give you the added convenience of travelling when and where you want to.
