Low-cost rental tips
- Check prices for locations outside the airport or in the city. You can often avoid the 10-15% airport surcharge and save a decent chunk of cash, especially on longer hires.
- Consider picking up at the airport and returning the car to a city depot. In Hobart, this is often allowed at no extra charge and can be a sneaky way to save.
- Always refill the tank yourself before returning the car. There’s a 24-hour BP station just a couple of minutes from the Hobart Airport entrance, which is much cheaper than letting the rental company do it for you.
- If you're visiting during the busy summer months (December to February), booking ahead is a smart move. Demand is high, so locking in a car early can help you avoid last-minute price hikes.
- Use your phone for navigation instead of renting a GPS unit. A rental GPS can add over A$10 a day to your bill, so using your own phone is a no-brainer.
