ABOUT US
Our Dunedin car hire branch is part of the New Zealand Rent A Car network, offering affordable car hire from locations all over New Zealand.
New Zealand Rent A Car began in 1991 and has grown from 10 offices into a network of branches throughout New Zealand, from the top of the North Island at Whangarei to the lower South Island in Dunedin.
With its historic buildings, great shopping, scenic beaches, and eco-tourism attractions Dunedin has something to offer everyone. It is also a great staring point if you are planning to explore other areas of Otago.
The Dunedin car rental branch is located at 51 King Edward St, 10 minutes from the CBD. Our friendly staff are ready to help customers reach their destinations and can advise on the Dunedin area and its many attractions.
We have a comprehensive fleet of rental vehicles for our customers to choose from, and our staff look to supply the right vehicle for the right hire, be it a day trip or a long term hire.
The Dunedin branch offers:
- Vehicles available from the Dunedin Airport
Dunedin Airport
Dunedin Airport Car Rental
NZ Rent a car provides a personal and friendly service at Dunedin Airport. We offer a contactless service which means you receive instructions on how to get to your car in advance. You have a short walk to your car and you get the key from a key box for which we have supplied you the code. You get the car and drive off, no long ques or waiting. This works at all times of the3 night and day.
Dunedin Airport is approximately 30km south of Dunedin City. The address is Miller Road, Momona.
We have a number of allocated spaces in the Rentals Carpark and when a customer returns a car to the airport the keys are placed in a drop box attached to a pole in our spaces. There is no need for time consuming check ins and the system works quickly and with a minimum of effort from the customer. We give full instructions to the customer regarding pick up and drop off procedures.
Although there is a modest ‘airport fee’ the fee is much cheaper and convenient than airport shuttles or other paid methods of transport to and from the airport. All fees are shown on our web site.
We also have a stream lined system for customers arriving on the ‘mid night’ flights which greatly facilitates their access to the vehicle and there departure from the airport. Again full details of the procedure are given to customers in advance.
We do not require several days advance notice of bookings and we try to provide a service, where possible, with short term notice. We also do not have a minimum length of hire. We pride ourselves on taking short and long term bookings with limited notice and with convenience to our customers.
We are generally the cheapest rental car supplier at Dunedin Airport across most categories and all our cars are clean, reliable, safe and well maintained. We pride ourselves as normally being able to take short or long-term bookings at short notice. We have a wide range of vehicles from small cars up to 12 seat mini-buses.

Easily it was one of the best experience we have had so far with a car rental company - and we travel a lot and hire a lot of cars in different locations, and so are able to compare.Craig - the person in charge of this set up, is totally customer focussed. He is friendly and does not hesitate to go out of his way to meet a customer's requirements. For example we were travelling to Dunedin for the first time and so casually enquired with Craig about the best way to reach the car yard. It was a surprise to hear him offer to hand over the car at our hotel. Not only that - he even arranged to collect the car from our hotel at the end of the rental without charging anything extra.The car provided was clean and in very good condition.It was a very different and pleasant experience dealing with Craig, and this car rental outlet. read lessKrish Haldar5/19/2022

The price was easily the cheapest I found so I booked and gritted my teeth in anticipation of the extra costs that were likely to come my way - but these costs did not come.During our trip, my wife had an incident with a boom gate. I looked at my paperwork and found the excess to be $2000 (I didn't pay the extra to reduce this). Luckily, NZ Rent a Car looked at the photos of the damage and told me it would only be $1500, not $2000. This was good news, I have come to expect car rental places to just charge the full amount.Later, NZ Rent a Car told me that the price actually came in under the $1500 quote and they refunded me more than $400.Great customer service, even after I returned the car.A brilliant company to do business with. read lessPaul Henry7/12/2017Excellent service and car!My family came over to NZ for a visit and I decided to bring them to South Island to see all the amazing towns and cities down... read moreExcellent service and car!My family came over to NZ for a visit and I decided to bring them to South Island to see all the amazing towns and cities down south.

We had a very good experience: excellent, personal service from Craig who clearly cares about his vehicles, his business and his customers. He was friendly to deal with, helpful about collecting me from the city and unfazed by us changing our drop off arrangements at short notice. The car we hired was a sturdy Corolla in good order. I wouldn't hestitate to hire a car here again. read lessRachel Rose7/12/2019NZ Rent a Car were awesome!

Craig in particular in their Dunedin office was extremely helpful after there had been a blunder with a different rental company and I discovered 2 hours before flying that we didnt have a car on the busiest weekend of the yearCraig saved our holiday and was friendly and professional while he was doing it. Whats more the rates were very good and didnt reflect the demand of that period (there wasnt another car anywhere best I could tell)I'm a fan! Thank you Craig, and your team - the girls in Christchurch I met when I dehired the vehicle 10 days later were awesome tooYou guys are doing a great job!Dave Hall read lessdave hall7/12/2019

The price was easily the cheapest I found so I booked and gritted my teeth in anticipation of the extra costs that were likely to come my way - but these costs did not come.During our trip, my wife had an incident with a boom gate. I looked at my paperwork and found the excess to be $2000 (I didn't pay the extra to reduce this). Luckily, NZ Rent a Car looked at the photos of the damage and told me it would only be $1500, not $2000. This was good news, I have come to expect car rental places to just charge the full amount.Later, NZ Rent a Car told me that the price actually came in under the $1500 quote and they refunded me more than $400.Great customer service, even after I returned the car.A brilliant company to do business with. read lessPaul Henry7/12/2017

We didn't make a reservation, but when we showed up Craig was very helpful asking us about our driving plans and recommending a particular car that would meet those needs and even hooking us up on the spot with a car. Additionally, we were returning our car to another location in NZ and it was easy to extend our rental by a day or two as our plans changed.
