Question 1

What are the requirements for hiring a car at South Geelong Station?

Accepted Answer

To hire a car at South Geelong Station, you must meet several key requirements. These include being at least 21 years old, presenting a valid driver’s license, and providing a major credit card (such as Visa, MasterCard, or Discover) for payment and security purposes. Additionally, proof of insurance or the option to purchase insurance coverage from the car hire company may be required. Insurance options can vary by location, so it's important to verify the details with the car hire company ahead of time. Be sure to review any additional documentation or requirements specific to the car hire location.

Question 2

Do I need to return the car with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

Whether you need to return the car with a full tank of gas depends on the fuel policy you select. With a full-to-full or same-to-same policy, you must return the vehicle with the same level of fuel it had when you picked it up. If you don’t, you’ll incur a charge for the missing fuel, usually at a rate higher than local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank, which means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, this option typically results in a higher overall cost, as you’ll be charged the local gas price minus a discount per gallon.

Question 3

Can I hire a car from at South Geelong Station and drop off at another location?

Question 4

How much does car hire insurance cost at South Geelong Station?

Accepted Answer

The amount of excess (the portion you must pay in the event of damage or theft) you choose will also impact the insurance cost. Some providers offer zero-excess insurance for greater peace of mind, but this option generally comes at a higher price. To find the best coverage for your needs and budget, it's advisable to compare different insurance options and rates available on various booking sites before finalizing your hire.

Major credit cards like Visa, MasterCard, or Discover are accepted for this purpose. The credit card must be in the primary driver's name to ensure financial responsibility for the vehicle. While some locations may accept debit cards, they often require additional documentation or a credit check. For a hassle-free hiring experience, it's advisable to use a major credit card like Visa, MasterCard, or Discover.

Question 7

What is a one-way fee?

Accepted Answer

A one-way fee is applied when you return your hire car to a different location than where you originally picked it up. This fee helps cover the cost of relocating the vehicle back to its starting point. The amount of the one-way fee varies depending on the locations involved and the hire company's policies. Be sure to check the fee details when booking your hire to understand any additional charges that may apply.

What should I do if I damage a hire car at South Geelong Station?
