KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Hoppers Crossing

  • As you use cheap car hire in Hoppers Crossing, it is important to note there are toll roads that you might come across. One toll road running through Hoppers Crossing is the West Gate Freeway. The toll is collected electronically using a system called CityLink. To navigate this toll road, drivers need to have an electronic tag installed in their vehicle. The tag is linked to a prepaid account, and the toll is automatically deducted when the tag passes through a tolling point. Drivers can apply for a tag and set up an account online or at one of the CityLink customer service centres, or your hire agency may be able to provide one.
  • If you expect to drive with children in your Hoppers Crossing hire car, it is advisable to follow the child safety rules in the area. Children aged between six months and four years are expected to be buckled in the backseat in a safe and backward-facing kids’ car seat, while children aged between four and seven years can be placed in front-facing booster seats. All children under seven years are expected to be restrained in the correct child car seat for their age and size. Failing to comply with child car seat regulations can lead to a fine and penalties.
  • When looking for cheap car hire in Hoppers Crossing, there are several requirements that one must fulfil. To start with, most car hire companies require that drivers be at least 21 years old; although, some companies may require drivers to be older. Additionally, drivers need to have a valid driver's licence and a credit card in their name to hire a car. While some companies may accept debit cards, it's important to check with the hire company beforehand. It's worth noting that car hire companies may also require a deposit or additional insurance for drivers under the age of 25.
  • Conveniently explore Melbourne and other cities around the area with a car hire in Hoppers Crossing. It’s around 30 km from Melbourne and less than 50 km from Geelong.
