Choose Uber Rent for your next Kiwi Roadie
Written byUber Rent is now available in New Zealand, so local and international users can now use the Uber app to book and hire a car in more than 300 pickup locations across the country.
Uber Rent promises to make hiring a car easier and more convenient than ever before. With hundreds of vehicles from high end EVs to practical everyday cars available to rent from the most trusted car hire companies (including Hertz, Avis and Budget), the new service will allow users to book the perfect rental car for their trip at the tap of a button.
Powered by Car Trawler, the world’s leading technology provider for the rental industry, the Uber app will allow users to search for the best car hire options based on a user’s location and destination. This will include the ability to compare options by price, vehicle size and user ratings.
To book a rental car using the Uber app, follow these simple steps:
- Open your Uber app and tap the “Rental Cars” icon.
- Enter the address that your rental car pickup/dropoff will be near and the times and dates that your reservation will start and end.
- Browse vehicles and compare prices. You will not be charged when you complete to make your reservation. Payment will be processed at the rental location when you go to pick up your vehicle. You can pay in advance to save money or pay at the rental location.
- Go to the rental location with your driver’s license and credit card at the time referenced in your reservation in the Uber app.
- When your reservation is over, return your vehicle to the location indicated in the reservation.
You can now use the Uber app for all your door-to-door travel needs, perfect for weekend getaways, inter-city business travel or simply for everyday errands.
