Top tips for hiring a car in Western Australia

  • If you are planning to drink alcohol during your time in Western Australia, then make that you always abide by the maximum alcohol consumption limit before you get behind the wheel. A driver must always drink responsibly and never drive when they are under the influence. Your Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) level should never be over 0.05%. This is the equivalent of consuming two standard drinks, such as regular strength beer.
  • Providers can usually differ in their requirement of documents to successfully hire a vehicle in Western Australia, but you always have to show proof of your full and valid driving licence. This can be either a UK driving licence or an Australian Green Plate P Licence. Some providers will also request that you have held this licence for at least 12 months. In addition, you will almost always have to show proof of your passport. This passport must be valid at the time of your booking and must also be valid throughout your entire stay in Western Australia.
  • Those who are looking for accessible branches for their car rental will find lots of availability all throughout Western Australia. If you are travelling from airports like Perth Airport, Albany Airport, Broome International Airport, Carnarvon Airport, and more, you will find suitable providers directly outside of the Arrival’s Terminal. There are also information desks within the Arrival’s Hall. Otherwise, there are also lots of branches in locations like Fremantle, Wembley, Highgate, and more. Make sure to choose the most accessible branch to you as it is a common requirement that you must return your vehicle to the same branch.

FAQs about hiring a car in Western Australia

  • Should I hire a car in Western Australia?

    Whilst there are public transport options available in Western Australia like buses, trains, and ferries, the most convenient and the easiest option is to rent a car. By renting a car you won’t be limited to visiting some of the top sights and attractions that Western Australia is gifted with by relying on public transport. Drivers will also find that attractions are not all located within close proximity so driving a car makes appreciating these attractions the best choice. Some of the top attractions include Kings Park and Botanic Garden, The Pinnacles Desert, Cable Beach, Lake Hillier, Karijini National Park, Busselton Getty, Cottesloe Beach, Perth Zoe, along with much more.

  • What is driving like in Western Australia?

    Driving in Western Australia isn’t too different to drive in the UK. Those renting a car will need to drive on the left-hand side of the road and will have a wheel located on the right-hand side. Make sure to always give way to the right at roundabouts and proceed with caution. When driving in zones that have high levels of pedestrian activity then expect a speed limit of 40kmh (25mph) or in rural areas a maximum of 100kmh (62mph.) A passenger must always drive appropriately and drive at a speed that is appropriate with the road conditions as the limit of speed is not always signposted.

There are also a select few companies that will hire to those at the young age of 19 but these drivers should expect to pay an additional charge, also known as a young driver’s handling fee.
