Explore the State with an economy car rental from your Queensland Airport

Queensland is the second-largest state in Australia. It covers over a quarter of the continent in the northeast and has borders with New South Wales, South Australia, and the Northern Territory. Queensland covers an area of 1,727,000 square kilometres.

Queensland’s geography is part of what makes it so appealing. There are countless significant locations with tablelands, mountain ranges, rivers, and islands, as well as long stretches of outback plains! Queensland has about 4 million people, yet only around half of them live in Brisbane, the state’s largest city. The seashore is home to the majority of the state’s inhabitants. The Gulf of Carpentaria, the Torres Strait, the Coral Sea in the north, and the South Pacific Ocean in the east, define this vast 7400-kilometre stretch.

Sun, sea, relaxation, water activities, a location close to home, and all the conveniences and familiarities that come with travelling within your homeland. Queensland is ideal for individuals of all ages, offering a wide range of activities and entertaining things to do for families and multi-generational vacations.

Couples will find many isolated areas to retreat and escape or enjoy a weekend away in Cairns, Brisbane, or the Gold Coast with the sun, shopping, and nightlife. In Queensland, there is truly something for everyone!

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.

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.

  • Reversing damage
  • Overhead damage
  • Undercarriage damage
  • Water damage
  • Hail damage
  • Negligence or Abuse

Please note that you will not have the benefit of Alpha’s insurance if the rental vehicle is driven on unsealed roads.

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.

I have hired cars all over the world and this would be by far the best experience I have ever had. Everyone involved was well trained and helpful. The car was great (Maybe could have had a bit of instruction with use of modern cars). The two drivers of the shuttle were really good and there was very little wait.An all-round pleasant experience.Thank you.

Cannot fault any part of the experience with Alpha Car Hire. The pick up and drop off driver was amazing helpful and very professional, office staff efficient and pleasant, the car was clean but was not impressed with the MG3. Overall a great experience

Highly recommended! Great value, no nonsense car hire co. Airport shuttle drivers were great, and even helped us return to get a handbag left in their waiting room. Service staff explained everything carefully and the car was perfect for our needs!

Alpha provides an excellent array of well-priced, high-quality vehicles for hire. Their service - from the airport shuttle right through the collection of the car - is efficient, friendly, and generally pleasant. On return, the efficiency is magnified, and the shuttle back to the airport is timely and comfortable. The quality of the end-to-end service is very high. I highly recommend Alpha if you ever need a car hire when flying in from Brisbane.

Customer service is good. Picking up and returning of the car is hassle free. Car is relatively new and well maintained. Price is cheaper compared to other established companies. Shuttle service is efficient. Will definitely recommend to friends and families. Rented from 9th Dec toc 2023.

The airport shuttle was efficient. There’s a free public phone at the international airport that you can use to call for it, and we waited about 10 minutes. The purple buses are easy to spot. When we returned the car at the end of the hire the shuttle went straight away.The car was a fairly basic model with 48k km on the clock but it did the job, and was clean and in good condition. Good value. I would use them again.

First time hire with Alpha and I must say it was great. Much better value than other hire companies. Was reticent about the off airport location but the shuttle was easy, virtually no waiting and drivers friendly and polite. Check-in and drop off very easy as well. Again, staff were great. Car clean and no problems.

I used Alpha 10 years back when they had just started out and loved their service back then, so when it came time to hire another car in Brisbane I sought them out. Super pleased to see their great work has paid off and they are now a massive company but have retained the small company service and vibe. Super friendly staff from the shuttle drivers, to front desk and phones. 0800 is answered quickly unlike others. Nice vehicles and great price. Will be back for sure.

Great experience renting a truck (both times). In both cases - clean interior, runs well. Hydraulic lift, A/C, cruise control were in good working order. Booked and paid online, no hassle pickup and drop off, friendly staff. Also, great price on truck rental, looks like the best in the city. Don't forget to fill that tank when returning the vehicle.

The business is located in the perfect spot in Hendra and there is a service station only metres away, making it super easy to refuel just before returning the car. The staff are quick, friendly and efficient. The car I had was relatively new and in excellent condition (although it did need a more thorough clean, which could be due to my last minute booking). The shuttle bus runs regularly and the driver was extremely helpful and considerate. Overall, I was very happy with every aspect of my first experience with them. It won't be my last!
