Travel in Comfort with Alpha's Cheap Van Rentals

As opposed to renting two cars to fit your family and luggage or your large group of friends, an 8-seater van with ample storage space will be the more economical choice. More space means less compromise, you’ll have more than enough room for your stuff and your legs.

Whether you’re taking a road trip with your family, a city tour with friends or a business trip for work, rental vehicles will always beat public transport. Hire a van to have full control over your schedule and itinerary and save money on transportation fees.

Our clients are always delighted by our competitive pricing.

Convenient Locations

Reliable Car Hire

We make it a point to source only the most reliable makes and models.

Additional Benefits

From free airport transfers to affordable add-on roadside assistance, your convenience is our priority.

You may request a quotation and check availability without making a reservation. Complete only the first pages of the rates and reservations process. If you wish to make a reservation at this time and with these details simply continue by pressing the “Book Now” Button.

Extending the rental duration is possible at time of check out or during the rental itself. You will need to contact or come in person to the nearest location. The extension is subject to vehicle availability and extra payment.

Yes, however, the person with the credit card must be on the Rental Contract as the main driver so they will need to have a current open driver’s licence written in English.

What happens if I return the vehicle late?
If you return the vehicle more than 1 hour after the drop-off time, you will be charged an additional full day’s fee. For example, if your rental is from 8:00 AM to 8:00 AM the next day, and you return it at 9:01 AM, the extra charge will apply. If you have any questions, please contact our customer service team.

All vehicles are covered by 24-hour roadside assistance for all mechanical faults with the vehicle.

Free Roadside Assistance does not cover non-mechanical defects and driver errors, such as lost keys, keys locked in the vehicle, flat battery due to lights being left on, etc. These instances will incur a $180 fee per call-out.

However, all costs are waived if the customer avails of the $5.50 per day Roadside Assistance package.

If you run a business with ongoing transportation needs, you know as well as anyone that handling maintenance, inventory and financing can be both an expense and a hassle. If you need to supplement your fleet for a short-term or longer term, our friendly team will happily provide a quote.

At the end of the reservation process, you will receive a “Reservation Confirmation” page with the reservation number highlighted. You will also receive a confirmation email containing the details of your reservation and collection procedure.

Yes. Please contact our Reservations Staff and they will be more than happy to help 1300 227 473.

You may receive a refund of your booking fee, minus any applicable cancellation fees. We do not charge cancellation fees for bookings cancelled more than 48 hours before pickup. Otherwise, for cancellations within or less than 48 hours of pickup, a fixed $75 cancellation fee will be applicable.

Please refer to our Car Hire Terms and Conditions.

All Alpha vehicles which are rented have comprehensive insurance with a standard liability that is applicable to renters that may be reduced with one of Alpha’s waiver options. For passenger vehicles (hatchbacks, sedans, family cars, SUVs, 8-seater vans and Utes) the standard liability is $5,000 for drivers over 21 years of age. For more information on our Standard Liability Protection Cover visit our Terms & Conditions.

Hired a vehicle for 7 days.
Really happy with the service received from shuttle and vehicle pick up. Our vehicle was the perfect size, had a few cosmetic imperfections but did the job. Will use this service again.

One of the best rental experiences I've had so far! The shuttle bus pickup was seamless, and the drivers were friendly, courteous, and attentive. I had several pieces of luggage, and they helped me load them onto the bus, making the process stress-free.

The counter staff were welcoming and informative, and the rates were the most affordable I found. They even helped adjust the rental hours to maximize my usage. The child seat hire was also cheaper than other providers.

Best of all, the bond was released within 30 minutes of returning the car. I’ll definitely use this company again when I visit Brisbane!

Not familiar with Brisbane airport and Alpha made it stress free with prearranged shuttle to site. Hassle-free check-in to pickup vehicle and drop off on return. Company cars modern spotless and comfortable. Very much made a 4 day trip from NT easier. Recommend company to others.
