Parked rental cars

Can you have your hire car delivered to you?

By Vroom Team • Reviewed 06 Nov 2025

It would be nice, but rental car providers in Australia generally do not offer this service. All is not lost though.

It’s common in many countries for rental car providers to offer delivery to your nominated address when you book a rental car. However, in Australia, the major car rental companies — Avis, Budget, East Coast, Europcar, Hertz, and Thrifty — do not offer an option to have your rental car delivered.

Tips to consider instead of having a rental car delivered

  • Choose the closest depot to your location. Remember, many major car rental brands have suburban depots in addition to their CBD and airport locations.

  • Major airports and most regional airports are serviced by at least one of the major car rental providers—if not all.

  • Look for a depot that is close to public transport. This way, you’ll be able to get to and from the depot easily.

  • Consider your arrangements for both collecting and returning your rental car to the depot. Sometimes, customers may only think about the collection and forget to plan for the return.

  • By using our search form and clicking on “Map View” you’ll be able to see the depots within a 10km radius of your search.

If you need help selecting a depot, please contact our customer care team, who will do their best to assist you.
