I recently hired a Haval through OCR and picked it up at the Coolangatta branch. The staff were excellent—they arranged a shuttle to pick me up from the airport and showed me around the car, making the process smooth and easy. Liz at the Surfers Paradise branch was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to make the drop-off process stress-free. Thank you to the entire team for a fantastic experience!

Best car hire experience I have had so far! The check in was easy, the bond amount was a lot less than other car rentals, the car was immaculate and almost brand new. Will definitely be using OCR again when we travel to Gold Coast. Thank you team!!

For all our vehicles we require a $500 bond be placed on a credit card (NOT Debit card) in the main drivers name, this is placed as a pending transaction (Pre-authorisation) for rentals less than 14 days. You must ensure there are enough available funds on the card when picking up the vehicle, once a pre-authorisation has been held, you will not be able to use that money. At the end of the rental, the final payment amount will be processed with the unused portion of the pre-authorisation to be released less any applicable charges eg tolls, fuel, damage charges etc. Depending on your bank, the money is usually released within 5-10 working days. OCR will not be held responsible for any incurred overdraft fees or charges. Additional bond requirements apply to renters residing within 300 kms of the rental location. Please contact our staff for details
The minimum age to hire and drive a vehicle with OCR is 21 years of age (up to 75 years of age due to our insurance policy). All drivers must hold a full (open) unrestricted Drivers Licence of the appropriate class for at least 12 months prior to rental.
Drivers must present with a full, open and current Drivers License issued by the country in which they reside. If the Drivers License is not in English, an International Driving Permit (in English) or an official translation document must accompany the original license. Australian Digital Drivers License’s are acceptable subject to verification. Note that a standard photo or copy of a Drivers License can not be used.
All additional drivers must meet the same minimum age and drivers license requirements as the main renter. An Additional Driver charge of $15 / driver will apply. If booking through a third party booking company, please verify with them if any additional rental cover purchased through them remains in effect for drivers other than the one listed.
When returning the vehicle, please ensure the fuel level is Full (unless our pre-paid fuel option has been selected), and the vehicle is in a clean and tidy condition. Any excessive cleaning required to return the vehicle to rentable condition, eg soiling, stains, will be deducted from the security bond.
Rental extensions are welcome, subject to vehicle availability. For this reason, please request rental extensions at the earliest opportunity to avoid disappointment. Rental extensions will be charged at the contracted rate of hire, unless the extension enters into a peak hiring period eg school or public holidays, in which case an increased rate may apply. Please contact our rental staff to enquire.
If you return the vehicle early, you will not be refunded any portion of your payment. This doesn’t detract from your rights as a consumer under applicable consumer protection legislation, including the Australian Consumer Law
We do allow one-way rentals between select locations. Please contact staff on 1300951782 to arrange a one-way rental (fees & charges may apply please consult staff for pricing).
If you receive any traffic infringement during the rental period these will be nominated to you. It is then your responsibility to make payment. Each infringement incurs a $75 administration fee.
Evidence of smoking in our vehicles will subject the renter to a $200 additional cleaning fee, deducted from the security bond.
Please call us as soon as possible if any of your travel plans have changed. If your flight information has been provided with the booking we'll be able to track any delays and update your booking accordingly - however we won't be able to amend the duration of the rental car, the vehicle is still expected to be returned at the original assigned time. Typically, we will hold the vehicle from being re-rented for up to 3 hours, if you have provided contact information, we will attempt to call you before re-assigning the vehicle.
All our rentals include 250 free kms per day. Additional kms are charged at 20c/km, charged at rental return.
The bond or security deposit will be released by OCR up 24 hours following the return of your rental vehicle. This is to ensure time for any toll charges incurred to be processed. Your bank may take up to an additional 5 working days to reflect this in your account.
Our vehicles are provided with a full tank of fuel. Please ensure they are also returned full unless you have purchased our pre-paid fuel option at pickup or additional refueling surcharges will apply.
Our vehicles are authorised for mainland travel within Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and the ACT. They may not be taken to Western Australia, the Northern Territory or Tasmania.
The name of the booking / driver may be changed at pickup, provided the designated hirer/driver meets all existing renter requirements and can present the relevant documents (drivers license, credit card) in their name. Please note that if you booked through a third party booking company, any additional cover purchased through them may be rendered invalid. We would recommend you contact them directly in this instance.
