What do you need to rent a car in Townsville?
Generally, you’ll need a valid driver’s license and credit card in your name when picking up the vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you decide to opt out of the company’s insurance policy. Rules may differ between rental outlets, so be sure to check the terms and conditions.
Can I drive in Townsville with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes, your valid U.S. License is enough for you to legally drive in Townsville. But if you’re the sort of holiday maker who likes to cover all the bases, get yourself an International Driving Permit. It’s relatively easy to arrange.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Townsville?
You can, and the wonderful news is companies often offer lower rates the longer you rent. Browse our long-term car rental deals in Townsville and drive away with an unbeatable bargain.
Where can I find a Townsville car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to investigate the age policy of the Townsville rental suppliers you’re interested in. If you’re under 25 years old, some outlets will charge extra costs. It’s better to know this before collecting the vehicle so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own policies for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
