Top tips for hiring a car in Beenleigh
Before you hit the road, here are a few quick tips to help you safely navigate when driving your car hire in Beenleigh.
Beenleigh road rules and driving conditions
Driving in Beenleigh is generally straightforward, but it's important to be aware of local road rules and conditions. In Australia, all vehicles must drive on the left side of the road — important to note if you’re visiting from overseas. The speed limit varies, typically ranging from 40 km/h in school zones to 100 km/h on highways, so always check local signage to ensure compliance. For fully licensed drivers, the legal Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05%, while learner and provisional drivers must maintain zero BAC.
When driving near rural areas, be cautious of wildlife on the road, such as kangaroos and possums, especially during early mornings and late evenings. Although roads in and around Beenleigh are generally well-maintained, some rural roads may have narrower lanes or uneven surfaces, so exercise caution, particularly at night. Peak traffic hours are on weekdays from 7:30–9 am and 4:30–6 pm, so plan your travel accordingly to avoid congestion.
Beenleigh enjoys a subtropical climate with mild winters and warm summers, making it a year-round destination. The wet season occurs from November to April, and during heavy rain and storms, visibility and road grip can be affected, so drive carefully. The dry season, from May to October, has ideal conditions for road trips, with clear skies and moderate temperatures.
Before setting off, ensure your rental car is equipped with essential supplies such as bottled water, a local area map or GPS (don't rely solely on your phone in rural areas), sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, a mobile phone charger, and a basic first aid kit. For child safety, Queensland laws require the use of approved child restraints.
Are there toll roads in Beenleigh?
While Beenleigh itself does not have toll roads, nearby areas and highways may include toll sections.
However, if you plan to travel between Beenleigh, Brisbane, or the Gold Coast, here are some key toll routes include the Gateway Motorway (M1/M2), a major toll road north of Beenleigh that connects Brisbane’s southern suburbs to Brisbane Airport and the northern regions, and the Logan Motorway (M2), located west of Beenleigh, which links the Pacific Motorway to Ipswich and the western regions.
Petrol stations and EV chargers in Beenleigh
Beenleigh offers several major petrol stations for refuelling your hire car, including a BP at 27 Logan River Road, Shell at 1-5 George Street, and Mobil at 6 City Road.
For electric vehicle users, charging stations are available in and around Beenleigh. You can find an Evie charging station at Beenleigh Central, located at 31 Logan River Rd, and BP Pulse charging stations at Loganholme, 4080 Pacific Highway, and Stapylton on the corner of Pacific Highway and Stapylton Jacobs Well Road.
Do I need to rent a car in Beenleigh?
Car hire in Beenleigh is highly recommended if you wish to explore nearby attractions such as Tamborine Mountain, Dreamworld, or the Gold Coast, where public transport may not provide direct access.
Having a hire car offers the flexibility to travel and explore at your own pace, especially if you need to carry gear or equipment for travel or work. If you're planning to venture outside Beenleigh to regional areas, including wineries, rainforests, or coastal spots, a car hire will greatly enhance your experience.
