On hiring a car at Essendon Airport
Prices start at AUD $56 per day for a Compact Car, up to AUD $212 per day for a Standard Car. Get a live rate for your planned dates and desired vehicle at Docklands.
If you prefer to plug your car in rather than fill it up, an Electric Car costs AUD $57 per day. Enter your car hire dates and find a live rate for your desired Electric Car at Docklands.
If you’ve got a crowd, but don’t need something as large as a bus, then a 7-seater or 8-seater Minivan hire might be your best option. A Minivan costs AUD $82 per day. Check for a live rate by entering your desired car hire dates at Docklands.
The per-day rates of some rental cars may fall if you book for a longer rental period. Prices often change around daily, three-day, five-day and seven-day periods. Also, note that the selection of rental cars available at Essendon Airport may be more limited if you are looking for a long-term car rental, so it’s best to compare a few different booking durations first.
You can choose to refuel in Caltex Woolworths located at 359 Keilor Road, Essendon. Be sure to fill up before returning your vehicle to avoid any additional fees from your supplier.
When you rent a car at Essendon Airport, general car insurance is covered by your car hire supplier. However, if your car is damaged or stolen while you’re renting it, you’ll be responsible for paying an excess ranging anywhere from AUD$4,000 to AUD$8,250.
