Why Rent a Campervan in Sydney

By Tim Ahern


When thinking of hiring a campervan in Australia you have to consider Sydney as the best place to do it. You might wonder why this is the case and I'm going to explain it to you.

With over 5 million people, Greater Sydney is Australia's largest city. With such a population there is plenty of supply of virtually any service you can ask for and finding a campervan hire company is no exception. Sydney's central location on the east coast also puts in the in best proximity of all capital cities to get to any other major city in the country. It is around 1000km to both Brisbane to the north and Melbourne to the south. It is only 1400km to Adelaide to the west and a mere 290km to Canberra - Australia's capital city. No other city has bragging rights on being so central to all the other cities of attraction.

Sydney is also the major arrival port for Australia. More passengers come through Sydney airport than any other in the country, so it is likely that you are going to arrive or leave through this city anyway. From Sydney you can also catch any form of public transport to any other part of the country.

With such a large city offering many public transport options to get anywhere else, why would you want to hire a campervan for your travels. Well the the main reasons are control and ease. You can control your destination, start time and finish time a lot easier if you have your own vehicle but more importantly, once you leave major cities, then public transport becomes difficult by world standards. This is because, overall, Australia actually has a small population for its massive size meaning less demand for services outside the major cities. Also, being a wealthy nation, most people own cars reducing the need for public transport. It all adds up to public transport being a nightmare once you are out of the cities and off highway 1.

Another reason you might consider a campervan is that there are a great many things to do on the outskirts of Sydney. Down south there is Cronulla and its glorious beaches and surf, and further south the Royal National Park. To the west is the Blue Mountains and to the north is the central coast and the famous Hunter Valley. All of these are quicker to reach in your own vehicle and you can stay at any one of them overnight in the camper you arrived in

Hiring a campervan is not for everyone, but it certainly does expand your options considerably in getting to all the places in Australia that you might want to visit. Sydney, having more campervan hire company depots than any other city, is certainly the city that you will be able to get the best deal in with the greatest variety of options. And a word of advice when selecting your campervan hire company - be sure to shop around. There are over 30 companies with depots in Sydney and many price comparison websites will only show you prices for the top 5. Some sites show results for around 10 companies, but make sure you find a campervan hire website that shows you prices for at least 20 companies or you are likely to be paying more than you need to.
