We understand the importance of choosing the right pick-up location. With that said, Bookingauto strives to provide customers with the opportunity to collect a car from all desired locations in Sydney, including the city centre, main railway stations, and the nearest airports. Thanks to such a large selection of rental points, our clients can book a car in Sydney and pick it up at a convenient place for them.
Options and possibilities:
We take into account the preferences of our customers and look for a car that fits into the right category. For example, those who come to Sydney on their own or with a small company can rent a spectacular convertible Mini Couper Cabrio from us, starting at €84 per day and rented out by the popular company sixt in Sydney. For those of you who arrive with your whole family or friends, a roomy and reliable minivan Opel Zafira might be best - from €66 per day. For anyone who loves comfort and doesn’t have limited funds, budget recommends opting for a business class car like Mercedes E for €78 per day. For those travelling on a budget, rent a compact model Ford Fiesta for just €15 per day.
How to minimize costs:
In order to avoid paying too much, plan to pick up the car and return it at the same time. Car rental fees are set for the entire rental day. Therefore, if you return the car after 25 hours, the payment will be calculated as 48 hours, or two full days. Likewise, if you use your rental car for more than 72 hours, you will pay for 96 hours of rent.

Average prices by car class in Sydney
Price changes Sydney depending on the season
The highest demand for car rental in Sydney occurs during the high tourist season - summer.
On average, the cost increases by 20-30% and the choice of available cars is also significantly reduced if you don’t book in advance.
For example, in July, the average price for the popular model Audi A4 in Sydney is €28 per day.
In autumn, the same car costs about €11 per day.
In the summer, prices for convertibles are especially high. As a guideline, a Mini Couper Cabrio will cost €84 per day for the duration of the vacation period.
Among budget models, the most demanded in Sydney is the Ford Fiesta. The sixt company rents it out for €15 per day.
For lovers of comfortable driving, you will also have to pay an increased price for business class cars – a Mercedes E will cost about €78 per day.
The excitement noticeably subsides in autumn and rental companies begin to reduce their rates. For example, you can rent a Opel Mokka very cheaply in the autumn for just €39 per day.
Fans of exclusive car models also find it easier to fulfill their requests in the autumn months. For example, in Sydney, you can easily rent a BMW 8-series to travel in style through the streets of the beautiful city. Rest assured that the memories of these drives will linger in your imagination for a long time.

Cancellation policy
On our website, you can cancel or change your booking in Sydney under certain terms.
The booking can be cancelled with a full refund at least 24 hours in advance (in some cases, 48 hours may be needed).
If cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice (or 48 hours in some cases), the administration fee will be deducted from the online payment amount but the rest of the money will be returned to your bank account.
Each vendor has a different cancellation policy and administration fee for different cars. Therefore, we recommend that you carefully read the cancellation policy before booking.
Note: you can only cancel or modify your order before the pick-up time!
These additional rules apply to all bookings:
If the online payment sum is less than the stated administration fee, there will be no refunds when cancelling your booking once the administration fee is applied.
If your booking is made less than 24 hours prior to the pick-up time (or 48 hours in some cases), a cancellation policy will be automatically applied to your booking.
Important information: All cancellations must be made in the “Manage My Booking” section and not directly through the car rental company itself.
Insurance coverage cancellation policy:
If you purchased an additional insurance product with your car rental, the policy will be automatically ended when the booking is cancelled. To check if you are eligible for a refund, see the cancellation policy set out in the terms of your insurance product.
No-show at the rental location:
A “no-show” can mean that:
● You didn't inform the car rental company of your cancellation before your pick-up time.
● You failed to pick up your car in Sydney at the arranged time and date.
● You failed to provide the documentation required to pick up the car.
● You failed to provide a credit card in the main driver’s name with enough available funds on it.
In the event of any of the above, no refunds can be made.
The car rental company reserves the right to refuse a car to any customer who fails to arrive on time with all of the necessary documentation and a credit card with enough available funds for the car's security deposit. In such cases, the customer will not be entitled to a refund.
