Who is Alpha Car Hire car rental?
Local or independent supplier
Alpha Car Hire is one of the car rental suppliers you can compare on Australia Rent Car.
Alpha Car Hire is an independent Australian supplier. Smaller fleets can mean more personal service and flexible hand-overs, but depot hours can be shorter than at the big airport brands.
Fees, excess and conditions differ by location and booking, so check the Alpha Car Hire terms shown in your quote before you pay.
What to check before you book
Tap a topic to see what to look out for.
Fuel policy
Check whether the car is full-to-full or pre-paid fuel. Pre-paid fuel is usually dearer than refuelling yourself.
Excess and insurance
Standard cover has an excess you pay if the car is damaged. Compare reducing the excess with the supplier against third-party cover.
One-way fees
Dropping the car in a different city can add a fee. See our one-way guide before you choose a route.
Young and additional drivers
Drivers under 25 and extra drivers often cost more per day. Confirm the amounts at booking.
Tolls and fines
Tolls and fines are passed on by the supplier, often with an admin fee. Ask how tolls are billed.
Deposit
A card deposit is normally held at pick-up and released after return. Check the amount and the card type accepted.
