Vehicle Pick-Up and Drop-Off Locations Vehicles must be picked up and dropped off at the KEA rental location. Office Hours Monday to Friday/Public Holidays: 08:00 - 17:00 Saturday/Sunday: 08:00 - 13:00 Note: All branches are closed on Christmas Day (25 December). Darwin closed for pickups and drop-offs between 11 December 2010 and 27 March 2011. Deposit and Final Payment At time of booking a deposit of USD $400.00 is payable. The deposit secures the booking. The balance is due 40 days prior to commencement of the hire. If the balance is not received 40 days prior to commencement of the hire, KEA Campers reserves the right to treat the booking as cancelled. In this case the deposit is non refundable. Rental Duration Minimum rental period: 7 days. Minimum rental is extended to 10 days for travel period 20 December to 05 January. Vehicle rentals are calculated on a per calendar day basis, i.e. day of pick-up or drop off is always counted as a full day irrespective of what time it is collected or dropped off. One Way Rentals One way rentals are available subject to the minimum rental periods in the table below. One Way Rental Fee One-way rentals are available between depot locations. A one way rental fee of AU$ 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 ‘premium’ 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 Campers vehicles come with comprehensive insurance cover. A bond of AU$ 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 AU$ 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: Excess Reduction 1 (Bronze Cover) Excess Reduction 1 at AU$ 28 (AU$ 35 for 4WD vehicle) per day will reduce the excess for any damage to the vehicle to a maximum of AU$ 2,000.
