888 Car Hire
For smash repairers & panel shops · Melbourne metro

Help your customers get back on the road. We'll take care of the rest.

Partner with 888 Car Hire to offer your not-at-fault customers a fast, no-cost replacement vehicle — arranged the same day their car comes in for repairs. No paperwork for your team.

Why partner with 888 Car Hire?

Same-day replacement

We deliver a replacement vehicle to your workshop or your customer's location the same day their car comes in — minimising disruption.

No cost to your customer

Where eligible, we seek to recover hire costs from the at-fault insurer. Your customer pays nothing upfront — which makes the conversation easy.

No extra admin for your team

All you do is refer. We handle eligibility, delivery, insurer correspondence and return. Zero admin burden on your workshop.

Direct contact, fast turnaround

Call 0423 022 881 and speak to our team directly. No forms, no waiting — we'll confirm the arrangement within minutes.

Melbourne metro coverage

We're based in Maidstone and cover all Melbourne metro suburbs. Wherever your shop is, we can deliver.

Happy customers = better reviews

A customer who never lost a day's mobility is a customer who leaves a five-star review for your shop.

How the referral works

1

Customer drops car in

When a not-at-fault customer books or arrives, let them know about 888 Car Hire and give them our number: 0423 022 881.

2

We arrange the replacement

Our team handles eligibility, vehicle selection and delivery. Same-day in most cases across Melbourne metro.

3

Your customer stays mobile

They're collected from or delivered to your workshop, so they leave with keys — not without transport.

What you need to tell your customer:

  • You may be entitled to a no-cost replacement car while yours is being repaired.

  • Call 888 Car Hire on 0423 022 881 — they'll check eligibility and arrange delivery.

  • You'll need the other driver's details (rego plate / name / insurer if you have it).

Who can partner with us?

We work with smash repairers, panel beaters, and auto repair shops across Melbourne metro. If you regularly see not-at-fault customers coming in for accident repairs, we can add value to your service.

We're particularly active in Melbourne's western suburbs — Maidstone, Footscray, Sunshine, Maribyrnong — but cover all metro areas.
