Important information about Maroochydore car hire

How can I get from Sunshine Coast Airport (MCY) to the hire car centre?

Sunshine Coast Airport (MCY), also known as Maroochydore Airport, has a car hire centre located in Park Terminal. Park Terminal is located on Friendship Avenue, opposite Main Terminal, with the car hire centre just opposite Arrivals. Friendship Avenue is the main street that gates the airport and loops around the parking and main terminals. It's easy to access the hire centre when hiring a car in Maroochydore – exit Arrivals and the centre is a short walk across the street, on your left. There are many car hire companies to choose from, including local and international names. Some of the most common companies include Bargain Car Rentals, Avis, Budget, Thrifty, Hertz, Europcar, Sixt and Enterprise.

What documentation do I need to hire a car in Maroochydore?

Hiring a car in Maroochydore is a simple process, but you will need to present a few key items: your identification, booking confirmation and a payment card. Your identification must include your driving licence and another form of ID. Other forms include a national ID card, a passport and proof of home address in the form of a utility bill. Domestic drivers may only require two items: your driving licence and one other form of identification from the list. Your driving licence must have been held for at least a year, without any major incidents. If you're an international driver, you'll need all of the previous listings plus an International Driving Permit (if your driving licence isn't in English). The minimum age for hiring a car in Maroochydore is 21 years of age, and a surcharge may apply for drivers under the age of 25. Your payment method may be a debit or credit card; most Maroochydore car hire companies accept either.

What driving laws should I keep an eye out for in Maroochydore?

Maroochydore and the surrounding Sunshine Coast area is diverse with a mix of country towns, sightseeing attractions filled with tourists and beach holiday destinations. As such, there’s a mix of speeding rules regarding these areas. Often there are default speed limits that are not signposted. In built-up areas, the default speed is typically 50 km/h, and on rural roads, it's usually 100 km/h. In areas with lots of people, usually places of entertainment (CBD and hospital zones included), the limit can vary from 30 km/h to 40 km/h. In school zones during the set school times, usually around 7:00-9:00 and 16:00-17:00, you must drive 40 km/h. These areas are indicated with signage. Other speed limits may include 60 km/h for roads with high traffic volumes. In the built-up areas, it's important to remember that you may be sharing the road with other vehicles, including buses, bikes and scooters.

Can I drive to other states, regions or countries with a hire car from Maroochydore?

Where you can drive with your hire car will very much depend on the car hire company that you choose. If you choose a local car hire company, you may face travel restrictions that will require you to stay within the confines of the local and state area. If, however, your hire company has hire offices in other states of Australia, there will be more flexibility on where you can travel. You will still be required to stay within Australia and cannot travel overseas. Your car hire company may also have restrictions on road types due to the car that you hire. If your car is not suited to rural areas, this may restrict your travel plans.
