How much is a rental car per day in Melbourne?

What happens if I need to cancel my Melbourne car reservation?
Our Customer Service Portal has details about cancellations. In most situations, full refunds are available if a booking is canceled more than six hours ahead of the collection time. It's a good idea to read the car rental agreement to double-check if there are any exceptions.
Where can I go on a road trip from Melbourne?
Melbourne is full of surprises, but don't limit yourself to just the one place. Arrange a set of wheels and head off to see what's in the surrounding area. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • Head off to Des Moines for a fun-filled sightseeing adventure. Approximately 35 miles from Melbourne, it has lots of inspiring attractions such as Iowa State Fairgrounds.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Melbourne with Expedia?
Expedia makes it a breeze to compare costs, offers and providers, and to check reviews. Combine your Melbourne car rental with hotel or flight bookings and you'll save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Melbourne?
Drivers aged 21 and above can hit the road in Melbourne in a rental car. If you're a young renter, a daily surcharge applies. You'll usually have fewer car categories to pick from, such as economy and compact, and may also have to purchase comprehensive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions or extra fees apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Melbourne?
Before you can take the wheel in Melbourne, you'll need a valid driver's license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you prefer not to take out the company's insurance plan, you may also have to provide proof of alternative coverage. Requirements may vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you select a rental provider.
What is the cheapest car rental in Melbourne?
The two lowest daily prices offered in Melbourne within the past seven days were $43 and $44. How's that for an awesome deal? These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Melbourne?
Yes, and the terrific news is suppliers often offer lower rates the longer your rental term. Browse our long-term car rental deals in Melbourne and hit the road with an unbeatable bargain.
Where can I find a Melbourne car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver hoping to rent a car in Melbourne, we recommend checking the policies of the rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional fees if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To escape any unpleasant surprises on pickup, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Melbourne?
After carefuly planning your escape, don't skimp on safety — choose collision protection while reserving your Melbourne car rental with Expedia. There are numerous benefits to this plan, including up to $35,000 in primary coverage for theft, accident damage and vandalism. Plus, with a zero-dollar deductible and 24/7 emergency assistance, you'll be able to breathe a little easier if a mishap occurs.
