Saving Tips
- Skip the airport pickup. Picking up your car in a suburban depot like Redcliffe or North Lakes often means you can dodge those extra airport fees.
- Look for weekly discounts. If you need a car for 5 or 6 days, compare the price for a full 7-day rental because it can sometimes be cheaper.
- Drive the toll-free route. When heading into Brisbane, you can take the scenic coastal road via Sandgate to avoid paying for the Gateway Motorway toll.
- Compare local and major brands. Don't just stick to the big names. Local Redcliffe providers can sometimes offer more competitive deals for a similar car.

FAQs
Is it worth having a car in Redcliffe if I'm staying on the peninsula?
Yes. While the peninsula is compact, a car lets you easily access different beaches, dining options and attractions, especially in hot weather or when you're travelling as a family.
Can I drive to Moreton Island from Redcliffe?
No. Moreton Island requires a vehicle ferry from Brisbane. Most rental agreements don't allow taking vehicles on ferries without prior permission.
What's the parking situation during Redcliffe events like the Jetty Markets?
Parking fills quickly for Sunday markets and special events. Arrive early or park slightly further away (Klinger Road or Kippa-Ring) and walk to the event areas.
