One-way rental: Return rental car to another location

With the one-way rental you can easily return your rental car at another location. The one-way rental is ideal for New Zealand trips that start in Wellington and end in Auckland, for example. Simply enter your desired destination in the search mask at the return location.

What should be considered when returning the rental car in Wellington?

Plan enough buffer time for the return of the rental car. Depending on the selected refueling regulation, you must fill up your rental car accordingly. In principle, we recommend to always choose the fair tank regulation full / full. With this you return the rented car with the same fuel level as you picked it up. After you have parked the rental car on the area of the car rental company, an employee of the car rental company will check the condition and fuel level. If everything matches the time you picked up the rental car, the retained deposit amount will be returned to you.

Returning the rental car outside opening hours

It is possible to return the rental car in Wellington outside opening hours. Car rental agencies at airports are often open around the clock. If the car rental agency is closed for return, there is usually a separate safe or mailbox where you can leave the car key. As soon as the car rental office opens, an employee of the car rental company will inspect the rental car. Should everything match the time of pickup, the deposit amount will be fully released again.

The minimum age for a rental car in New Zealand is 21. For drivers under 25, many car rental companies charge a so-called young driver fee. An international driver's license is advisable, but not mandatory.

Speed limit

The maximum speed limit is 50 km/h in built-up areas and 100 km/h on highways. If the speed limits are disregarded, a fine of between NZ$ 30 and NZ$ 630 is to be expected.

Further road traffic regulations in New Zealand

In New Zealand, as in Great Britain, driving is on the left. In addition, seat belts are compulsory for all passengers. In New Zealand, many roads are narrow and winding, so caution is advised even on less frequented roads. The drink-drive limit in New Zealand for drivers over the age of 20 is 0.8.

You can cancel a rental car free of charge up to 24 hours before the start of the rental period. Please note the opening hours of our service team.
