If you live in Melbourne's inner west — Footscray, Sunshine, Yarraville, Seddon, Flemington — you've probably experienced the frustration of car hire. The major brands (Hertz, Avis, Budget) concentrate their locations at Tullamarine Airport, the CBD, and a handful of suburban sites. Getting to them is half the effort.
888 Car Hire takes a different approach.
We're based in Maidstone
Our base at Maidstone, VIC 3012, puts us in the heart of Melbourne's inner west. For residents of Footscray (2 km), Yarraville (3 km), Seddon (3 km) and Flemington (5 km), that's as convenient as it gets.
We deliver to you
Even better than being nearby — we bring the car to your door. For most addresses in the Melbourne metro area, we can arrange delivery directly to you. No trip to the depot, no waiting around at a counter.
We're flexible
The big rental chains require credit cards, rigid return times and long queues for paperwork. We're a local operator. We work with you to find a time that suits, and we keep the process simple.
Our fleet
We run a lean, well-maintained fleet:
- MG3 — from $50/day. Compact and efficient for city driving.
- MG HS — from $60/day. A proper SUV with modern tech.
- Toyota Camry Hybrid — from $70/day. The ride-share favourite.
- Toyota HiAce Van — from $90/day. For moves, markets and tradespeople.
- 7-Seat Family Van — from $50/day. Melbourne's most affordable people mover.
- Lamborghini Urus — from $2,400/day. For when ordinary won't do.
