More About Saving at Hertz Australia
The cheapest Hertz rates in Australia almost always come from booking ahead with the prepaid Pay Now option, which trims the daily rate against the standard Pay Later rate. Stack a Hertz promo code on top by entering it in the CDP, PC or coupon field on the booking form on hertz.com.au.
Mid-size, SUV and ute categories tend to discount harder than the entry-level economy class on long bookings, so it's worth comparing daily rates across vehicle groups for stays of seven days or more.
When Hertz Runs Its Biggest Australian Sales
Hertz's biggest Australian discounts cluster around school holidays, long weekends and shoulder season travel. Watch for stronger rate drops in February and March, May, August and early November, when leisure demand softens between major holidays.
Click Frenzy and Cyber Weekend in November bring rare sitewide percentage deals on prepaid bookings, and travel agents often run Hertz fly-and-drive bundles around Boxing Day. The free Gold Plus Rewards program also runs members-only weekend rate offers a few times a year.
Delivery, Returns and Payment in Australia
Hertz operates company-run depots across all major Australian airports plus city, suburban and regional locations. Pickup is in person at the chosen depot, with Gold Plus Rewards members able to skip the counter at most large airports. Returns happen at the agreed drop-off depot during opening hours, with after-hours key drop available at many sites.
Payment is taken on a credit or debit card at pickup for Pay Later bookings, or charged when you book on Pay Now rates. Visa, Mastercard and American Express are accepted, and a separate authorisation hold is placed for incidentals on the day of pickup.
How to Use a Hertz Promo Code
Open the booking form on hertz.com.au, fill in the pickup and drop-off locations, dates and times, then expand the "I have a coupon, CDP, PC or rate code" panel. Drop your Hertz promo code in the matching field and run the search. The discount lands on the rate shown for each car group, before you select the vehicle and confirm the booking.
