Cost Of Motorhome Hire In Australia

Motorhome rental prices vary greatly from state to state, but there are some things that remain constant regardless of where you're travelling. Here's how much you'll pay for motorhome hire in each Australian state.

New South Wales
The cost of renting a motorhome in New South Wales varies depending on the season. The cheapest time to rent a motorhome in NSW is during winter months when demand is low. During summer months, the price rises due to increased demand. Prices start at around $150 per week for an 8-seater and rise to over $300 per week for larger models. This means that if you plan to travel throughout the year, then it makes sense to buy a motorhome before leaving home.

Victoria
Renting a motorhome in Victoria is generally cheaper than other states. A basic 6-seater model costs between $100-$120 per week. If you're looking for something bigger, expect to pay between $200-$250 per week. It's important to note that these figures don't include GST, which is added onto the final bill. To get a rough idea of what your total weekly payment might be, add together the base rate plus the estimated additional charges such as fuel, insurance and registration fees.

Queensland
In Queensland, the average weekly rental fee for a motorhome starts at around $140. There are no extra charges like in other states, so the overall cost remains consistent. The best time to visit Queensland is during spring and autumn, when temperatures are milder.
