So what is the rental process in RaD Car Hire Dunedin?

Step 1: Making a booking

This can be done over the phone (+64 3 477 7822) (0800 736 823), or online www.radcarhire.co.nz

You will need to know the following in order to make a booking;

  • Know your kilometre requirements. A short hire (less than 4 days), is likely to have limited km's
  • Know the type of rental vehicle you will require, ie smallest cheapest, medium size sedan/wagon, 4WD station wagon, people mover or Minibus....make sure it will suit the number of people/luggage you will have or if you need a trailer
  • A Full (unrestricted) Drivers License is required, as well as for any additional drivers
  • A Valid Credit Card is required. Payment however can be made with Eftpos or Debit Card if picking up from Dunedin City.
  • Age may determine the level of excess required on the vehicle
