Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Dunedin Intl. Airport (DUD)?
Budget and Europcar are within a quick commute of Dunedin Intl. Airport (DUD). After touching down, it won't be long before you're hitting the open road.
What happens if I need to cancel my Waipori car reservation?
No need to stress. You should get a total refund if you notify us more than six hours before collecting the car. Your confirmation contains information about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid bookings result in a refund though, so it's a good idea to read through your car's rental agreement.
What types of cars can I rent in Waipori?
Dash around in a nifty mini, style it up in a premium ride or go for something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to beat a compact car — the most commonly booked rental type in Waipori. They're a cinch to park and handle, fuel-efficient and a wise idea if you're cruising around big cities. An upgrade from economy, you can expect a bit more comfort and room at a price that won't hurt your budget.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Waipori with Expedia?

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Waipori?
In Waipori, the rule is 21 years of age and over. Most companies will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the rental location. Rental agreements for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as large SUVs, and require the purchase of inclusive insurance. It's a good idea to read the fine print carefully before locking in your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Waipori?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? Then there's a good chance you'll also need proof of other coverage. Requirements may differ between rental suppliers, so have a thorough read of your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Waipori?
If you're renting a car in Waipori, you'll need to drive on the left. Be aware that the driver's seat will also be on the opposite side to what you're used to. Consider choosing a car with automatic transmission to make things a little easier.

Where can I find a Waipori car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Waipori rental providers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, be mindful that some will charge extra costs. It's ideal to know about this before collecting the vehicle so you can budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for young drivers, so do your research.
