AutoRent Tasmania is a locally-owned campervan and motorhome hire company operating exclusively from Tasmania, with branches at Hobart Airport, Launceston
AutoRent Hertz is a Tasmanian campervan and motorhome hire company with multiple depots exclusively in Tasmania. It caters for 2 to 4 people in a range of vehicles, from a 2-person campervan to a 4-person high-end motorhome.
This Tasmania-owned and run company is clearly a marriage of smaller rental business in Tasmania and the much bigger Hertz car rental company. Campervans and motorhomes aren't the only vehicles on the fleet as there are also plenty of cars and trucks available for hire from the company. Plus, they have vehicles for sale. AutoRent Hertz offers bike hires on top of their campervan rentals. There are several branches scattered all over Tasmania―Hobart, Devonport, Launceston, and Burnie―to make your campervan/ motorhome hire more convenient. Since they have multiple branches across Tasmania, they allow one-way rentals at a certain fee.
Discover the charms of Tasmania with the help of Autorent Hertz's set of campervans and motorhomes. All vehicles on fleet are automatic, so no option for manual lovers. Still, you may enjoy the selection that ranges between budget backpackers to premium travellers. Catering up to 4 persons only, there will be lots of choices on hand, depending on your preferences and budget. And if you're travelling with your kids, there are certain vehicles that come with child restraint anchor points. But, all models on fleet do not have a self-containment sticker, which means you need to shed a couple of dollars if you want to park and charge the battery at powered sites.
A more compact yet still cost-effective choice, this 2-berth motorhome features a full kitchen with gas cook-top, refrigerator, electric toaster and a spacious living quarters with flat TV with CD/ DVD/ USB/. Watch your favorite videos from your permanent double bed or if you want more room, let your companion relax at the convertible dinette. If you think the kitchen, living and sleeping areas already consume the entire stretch, well, there's still an extra space at the rear for your wardrobe, food and more! Even without shower and toilet, you'll love the unique interior features and quite sophisticated aura inside the motorhome.
This 2-4 berth motorhome is quite more appealing than the former as it provides a shower and a toilet, on top of the existing camping facilities. It is also versatile to cater to couples or even larger families because of its well-fitted layout. If you're travelling with two kids, let them sit securely behind the driver's seat with the help of the child restraint anchor points. And if you want, you can add an external awning and dine outside. And when the sun goes back to its horizon, the diesel-powered heater brings comfort and warmth without the need to charge at a powered site.
Beautifully built on a Fiat Ducato model, this Premium Motorhome is the priciest and the fanciest among all vehicles on fleet. There are big external lockers to secure your things and cabinets for the kitchen utensils and food. The kitchen is more elegant with 3 burner gas stove, microwave oven, oven with grill, range-hood, separate and more. Of course, the living area is also equipped with TV with CD/ DVD/ USB/ and the like. The sleeping quarters allows two to rest on the permanent double bed and the other two on the dinette that is convertible into a double bed. There are 2 child restraints in this motorhome, making it ideal for couples with 2 kids. So, if you're travelling with the entire fambam, then you'll get a pretty good deal with this motorhome.
Compared to other companies, AutoRent Hertz does not require any bond or deposit in advance, which is great! The liability of the renter is payable at the time damage or loss and not beforehand. There are three liability reduction options: option 1 at $25/ day reduces the liability to a certain manageable amount; option 2 at $40/day reduces the liability to zero, plus coverage of tyre and glass damage; option 3 at $52/ day is pretty much the same with option one, but provides free usage of personal kit, camping table and chairs, iron, GPS, and child restraints.
AutoRent Hertz has continuously lived a good reputation all throughout the years. The extensive choices ranging from budget to high-end market is a nice attraction for different types of traveller. Aside from campervans and motorhomes, there are also cars, wagons, trucks and the like, making it quite favored than smaller, local businesses. However, the multiple branches exclusively in Tasmania is a thumbs up and also a thumbs down. It is because vehicles may not be taken out of Mainland Tasmania. Still, AutoRent Hertz is a pleasant choice for couples and families travelling with children.
With AutoRent Hertz, you have 2 to 4 berth unique campervans and motorhomes to choose from, which means there’s bound to be a vehicle to suit your needs. With several depots in Tasmania, it is a convenient choice only if you are travelling within the island state.
A range from budget to premium, all automatic. The 2-berth motorhome offers a full kitchen, flat TV, and permanent double bed without shower or toilet. The 2–4 berth model adds shower, toilet, diesel heater, and child restraint anchor points. The Premium Motorhome on a Fiat Ducato platform is the flagship — the highest spec vehicle in the AutoRent fleet. All vehicles are automatic. One-way rentals between Tasmanian branches are available.
Four locations: Hobart Airport, Launceston Airport, Devonport Airport, and the Spirit of Tasmania ferry terminal. This four-location Tasmanian coverage is one of AutoRent's strongest advantages — fly in to any of the three main airports, or arrive by ferry. One-way hire between all four locations is available.
Yes — AutoRent Hertz is primarily a car and truck rental company that also offers campervans and motorhomes. This means the depot infrastructure and support systems are built on a larger car rental foundation. Bike hire is also available at branches.
No AutoRent Hertz vehicle carries a self-containment certification sticker — meaning you'll need to use caravan park powered sites or pay for access where self-containment is required. If free camping self-containment is important, look at Leisure Rent's motorhome range.
Liability reduction options range from $25/day (partial cover) to $52/day (zero liability with full personal kit included). Confirm exact current amounts and what each tier covers at booking. See our campervan insurance guide.
Leisure Rent is Tasmania's highest-rated operator — newer fleet, technology-first keyless pickup, no credit card bond hold. AutoRent Hertz has the broader location network including the Spirit of Tasmania ferry terminal, which Leisure Rent doesn't cover. For ferry arrivals at Devonport, AutoRent Hertz has a depot advantage.
AutoRent Hertz is the most geographically flexible Tasmanian campervan operator — four locations including the Spirit of Tasmania terminal, one-way hire across the island, and the backing of the Hertz car rental network. For ferry arrivals or travellers who want to pick up at one airport and drop at another, the infrastructure is the strongest in the state.
The ferry terminal depot is a genuine and unique advantage that no other Tasmanian campervan operator matches. For all other Hobart/Launceston/Devonport airport-based trips, compare directly with Leisure Rent, who leads Tasmania on fleet quality, ratings, and the no-bond-hold policy.
Best suited to: ferry travellers, multi-location Tasmanian itineraries, and travellers who want Hertz brand familiarity in an unfamiliar destination.
