How easy is it to motor home around Australia?  Is it easy to hire a motorhome in Australia?  These are questions we are often asked.  The answer is ‘it’s easy’.  We can arrange motorhome hire from most major cities. 

When hiring a motorhome, most companies require you to generally stay on sealed roads, with the exception of accessing recognised camping grounds.  There are an increasing number of sealed roads, even to remote areas of Australia that are perfect for exploring, while enjoying the home comforts a motorhome provides.

Motorhomes available for hire have a built in toilet/shower which enables you to stay in bush or freedom camps if you choose.  Many of these locations are in picturesque locations and allow campfires.  It is these types of experiences that encourage many travellers to get out on the road, time after time.

Motorhome Australia

A great way to save money while travelling in the campervan or motorhome you rent, is to buy local produce for your meals.  Once away from the main cities you will often find road side stalls offering whatever is in season.  This might be a great opportunity to try something new as well as supporting local farmers.

To prevent the spread of disease, pests and weeds, there are restrictions carrying some items across state and territory borders – for example from Northern Territory to Western Australia.  There are also some restrictions within states.  Be mindful of this with bulk purchases of items when travelling interstate to avoid waste.

The most common restriction for campervan travellers will be fruit, vegetables and nuts.  There will be signs stating what is and is not allowed.  Fines for non-compliance may be as high at $100,000 and both random and permanent roadblocks operate in these areas.
