Does Thrifty require refueling in Preston Station, Melbourne, Australia?

Accepted Answer

The Thrifty fuel policy you select at Preston Station will determine your fueling responsibilities. With a full-to-full or same-to-same option, you need to return the car with the same amount of fuel it had at pickup. If not, you'll be charged for the missing fuel at a rate higher than the local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank.
