FIND US BESIDE THE SUNSHINE COAST AIRPORT
Our Head Office is conveniently located right beside the Sunshine Coast (Maroochydore) Airport; at 8 Cessna Street, Marcoola (sometimes also known as Mudjimba). Find us on the Locations Page map.
To find this location, just enter the Airport entrance (Runway Drive), turn left at the roundabout and first right into Cessna Street. We are half way along on the right - now at Number 8. As our office is less than a minute's drive from the terminal we provide a quick and efficient Airport DElivery, Pick Up, and Drop Off service. This system frequently allows you to be on your way faster than if you picked up a car from an Airport terminal desk and then an open airport car park. Plus our staff can check the vehicle out with you and are readily available should you have any questions.
MEET OUR TEAM
Annette, Trish and Selwynn are the friendly and helpful voices on the phone and the smiling face in the office when you arrive. Ken looks after business admin and website and also manages the fleet. Together Selwynn and Juan are our primary car, motorhome and campervan preparation gurus. As a team we work hard to ensure your Sunshine Coast rental car is well cleaned and ready for your holiday rental or business travel.
OUR CAR RENTAL SERVICES
In the last 19 years, there have been many changes and improvements in how we operate, as we strive to provide a local car hire service that stands out from our competitors. Our customers testify to how quick, easy and efficient our service delivery has become.
During 2014 we started Sunshine Coast Campervan Hire and motor home rental Sunshine Coast services under the brand name Sunshine Campervan and RV Hire. We now have a range including two, four and six berth motor-homes, and smaller campers such as the ever popular Toyota hi-top campervans that sleep two or three persons.
Whether its a car, a camper, or a multi-seat peoplemover van, we welcome your enquiry via phone, email or our easy Quoting and Booking System.
WHAT TYPE OF VEHICLES DO WE HIRE?
At Aussie Bargain Car Rentals you will find there are plenty of options - from new and near new cars and SUVs, through to late model well maintained vehicles that are perfectly fine for extending your holiday budget further. Our brands are primarily Hyundai, Kia, MG, Haval, and Nissan. Whilst there are a few other mainstream brands, our vehicles are mainly chosen for their reliability, economy, boot size and their ability to meet specific needs of our customers.
WHAT ABOUT AN SUV HIRE OR MINIBUS HIRE?
Yes , all our SUVs are 2 wheel drive. For example Hyundai Tucson SUVs and new Nissan X-Trail SUVs. We also have a variety of Haval and MG SUVs for hire. These are very popular, so don't delay if you want one.
For those who love riding the Sunshine Coast's surf breaks, Surfers make up an important part of our clientele. We now Cater to those who wish to bring their surboards on holiday with them by providing a variety of SUVs with hard roofracks. Tie downs are also available, or you can bring your own if you prefer. Hard racks (for surfboards only) can be ordered when you make your Sunshine Coast rental car booking.
There are usually limited numbers of new or used 7 or 8 Seater vans (also known as peoplemovers or minibuses) available on the Sunshine Coast. Consequently, if you wish to book one of our's it is best to book as far ahead as you can to ensure availabilty of this type of vehicle.
Although our people movers have generous luggage space when not fully loaded, it is always worth discussing luggage capacity with our staff if you have luggage for up to eight people to carry. Eight people in one van does not leave a great deal of luggage room. Smaller soft bags are the ideal answer as large hard cases may not all fit in the available space.
