Cheap Car Hire at Buranda Station

Before leaving the rental location, inspect the car for any existing damage and ensure it’s documented. Take photos if necessary to avoid disputes when returning the vehicle.

Select a pickup time based on your flight arrival to avoid inconvenience due to delays.

Consider downloading offline maps or carrying a backup GPS in case the station's network signal is poor.

Most rental companies will require a credit card for the deposit, which is typically frozen in your account. Make sure to inquire about the specific deposit amount and the policy for releasing the freeze.

When hiring a car, especially if you’re arriving by flight, plan for extra time at pickup to accommodate any potential delays. Most suppliers offer a grace period of 30-60 minutes. Providing your flight number can be helpful, but if you’re running late, be sure to call the supplier to inform them.

Before heading to the station, make sure to check the rental company's opening hours to avoid arriving when they are closed.

Inquire about any additional fees, such as airport surcharges or insurance costs, to budget accordingly.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Brisbane, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70
