When hiring a car in Brisbane, choose a car hire deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like Routes. These policies ensure you only pay for the fuel you use, helping you avoid unnecessary costs. While a “Full-to-Empty” policy might seem convenient, it can often be more expensive if you don’t use all the fuel.
