One Way Rental Fee
One-way rentals are available between depot locations. A one way rental fee of AUD $350 is charged for rentals 20 days or less per segment. Multiple rentals are treated as separate rentals under the one way fee and minimum rental period conditions. The fee is waived when all inclusive ‘platinum’ cover is taken.

Remote Location Fee
A surcharge of AUD $750 applies to vehicles picked up or dropped off in Broome. This is in addition to the one way fee if applicable.

Multiple Rentals - Minimum of 7 days
Multiple rentals can be combined to qualify for a longer term rental rate. Australia and New Zealand rentals, as well as multiple rentals within one country, can be combined to qualify if travel is within a 12 month period. If the drop off and pick up of a vehicle occurs on the same day then each day will be charged per respective vehicle. Multiple rentals are treated as separate rentals under the one-way and minimum rental period conditions.

Standard Excess Insurance Cover
All KEA vehicles come with comprehensive insurance cover. A bond of AUD $7,500 is taken to cover the excess in the event of any damage to our vehicle. The hirer will also be fully liable for demurrage - the daily rental rate for the period the vehicle is off fleet for accident repairs (max 14 days) - and for replacing or repairing damaged windscreens and tyres. Overhead and under-body damage on the rented vehicle is not covered. The bond can be paid by cash, traveller's cheques or credit card (see paragraph “Important: Bond Payments By Credit Card”). The bond is fully refundable on return of the KEA vehicle to the agreed location, on the agreed date in clean condition with no damage incurred to the vehicle, with a full tank of fuel, the toilet cassette and waste water tank emptied and no equipment lost or damaged.

Important: Bond Payments By Credit Card
If the hirer does not choose to purchase an Excess Reduction option from KEA Campers, a bond of AUD $7,500 is taken. This bond is deducted from the customer’s credit card when they pick up their KEA vehicle. We only accept Visa, MasterCard, AMEX and Diners Club. Visa and Master Card will incur an additional surcharge of 2.0 % on any transaction, AMEX and Diners Club 5.0 % on any transaction. When the vehicle is returned to KEA undamaged and no third party damage occurred, the excess is refunded. Like other currencies, the AU Dollar does fluctuate, sometimes by up to 3 or 4 cents in a period of only 3-5 weeks. Fluctuating exchange rates, the difference between buy and sell rates charged by banks as well as bank fees, may result in the amount refunded being different. KEA Campers is not liable for currency variations or bank transaction fees which may be payable, depending on the credit card provider.

KEA Campers offers the following options to reduce or waive the Standard Excess:

A bond of AUD $2,000 is payable at the time of pick up and can be paid by cash, traveller's cheques or credit card: a manual imprint of the credit card will be taken. The bond is fully refundable on return of the KEA vehicle to the agreed location, on the agreed date in clean condition with no damage incurred to the vehicle, with a full tank of fuel, the toilet cassette and waste water tank emptied and no equipment lost or damaged.
