Edward has been so so kind and nice, helpful all along from the beginning to the end of this trip. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to rent a car. He gave us all the valuable insights about traveling as well. He even offered a lift going back to the city(maybe it's because it was too late) anyway, he was the best guy on Turo.

I’ve rented many times off of Sixt and Enterprise etc so was quite skeptical of the competitive price off an independent rental car company. It turned out that not only was the Toyota Camry a good deal but also an extremely smooth process from start to finish, other than the slightly longer process of taking photos of the car upon pick up and drop off Alexander and team were far smoother, and communication was much more instant than with a larger commercial company. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and plan to do so in the future, thank you so much!

Top tips for hiring a car in Bondi Junction


About to hire a car in Bondi Junction? Here are a few top tips to keep in mind.


Sydney road rules and driving conditions


Before hitting the road in Sydney, familiarise yourself with Australian road rules and regulations. Remember that Australians drive on the left-hand side of the road, seatbelts must be worn at all times and pay attention to speed limits and other road signs to ensure a safe and enjoyable driving experience.

If you're driving in regional areas, be aware that animals and wildlife can wander onto the roads. Be sure to drive to the speed limit and do not swerve suddenly, as this can cause cars to roll off the road. Plus, full-license drivers in NSW have a legal BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration) limit of under 0.05.


Bondi Junction's rush hour and busiest roads


There are a number of congested main roads connecting Bondi Junction with the rest of Sydney. Bondi Road tends to attract traffic during peak hours (usually 6 am to 10 am to 4 pm to 7 pm on weekdays) along with other major nearby roads like Oxford Street.


Are there toll roads around Bondi Junction?


While there are no toll roads in Bondi Junction itself, you'll likely encounter toll roads when travelling to other suburbs (such as the Eastern Distributor and Cross City Tunnel). Make sure your rental car is fitted out with an e-tag prior to departure to ensure your car is able to navigate these toll roads with ease.


Parking in Bondi Junction


If you're heading to Westfield Bondi Junction, the centre's secure parking station is free for the first two hours. There are also a number of off-street car parks located across Bondi Junction, including the Wilson Parking Station (Grosvenor Street) and the Wilson Parking Station (Adelaide Street).

If you're heading down to Bondi Beach, it can be extremely hard to score a car park right along the beach during peak hours (usually weekends during the summer months). However, there are a number of nearby backstreets to check for on-street parking.


Petrol stations and EV chargers in Bondi Junction


Need to refuel in Bondi Junction? Head to the nearby petrol stations of Shell (120-138 Birrell Street) or Foodary Bondi Junction on Grafton Street. You'll also find a number of places to recharge your electric car, including the Evie Charging Station (Level 4 71/91 Spring Street) and the ChargePoint Charging Station (213 Oxford Street).


Do I need to hire a car in Bondi Junction?


In short, absolutely. While there is a train station at Bondi Junction and a number of bus stops, travelling to the best sights in Sydney takes considerably more time without a car. In fact, the Bondi 333 bus series has been named as the busiest route in the entire state of NSW, making it a very crowded, uncomfortable trip into the Sydney CBD.

With a hire car, you can curate your itinerary, maximise your time and pack your days filled with plenty of sight seeing in Sydney (without worrying about a bus or train timetable).


Dee Why hire car types


Expect to find a wide range of car types on Turo, including:

SUVs
Electric cars
People movers
Ute hire
Minivan rentals
Small cars
Large cars
Van hire


Car hire pickup locations in Bondi Junction and beyond 


Looking for places to pick up your Turo car near Bondi Junction? On Turo, you can find local hosts offering delivery of hire cars to nearby locations, including Coogee, Surry Hills, Paddington, Randwick and Bondi Beach.

Is Turo a rental car company?

No. Unlike rental car companies, Turo is a peer-to-peer car sharing marketplace where you can book directly from trusted local car owners in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. Turo does not own any vehicles — Turo hosts share their own personal cars and set their own prices, discounts, vehicle availability, and delivery options.

We encourage you to request to add any additional drivers before your trip starts, though guests in the US, Canada, and Australia can request to add a driver while a trip is in progress.

To speed up the process, have your additional driver create a Turo account and get approved to drive before you request to add them. All drivers must have a valid driver’s licence and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.

Do I need to be a certain age to hire a car in Sydney?

The minimum age to rent a car in Sydney on Turo is 21 years of age, with all drivers under 25 years old being subjected to an extra cost of $15/day (a.k.a the Young Driver Surcharge).
