Can I reduce my excess or collision damage payments?
Yes, you can reduce your excess or liability in case of an accident when you pickup your vehicle at the depot. There is no need to advise us at this stage.

What Drivers Licence requirements do you need?
The driver must carry a full drivers licence from their home country, if not in English a valid international drivers licence must accompany the original licence. This cannot be probationary or a photocopy, as long as the normal licence is valid and in English it will be accepted in Australia.

Can I take any vehicle above the snowline?
Budget and Avis will not allow any of their vehicles to be driven above the snow line.
Europcar and Hertz do allow this with the following conditions:
HERTZ: Only vehicle groups allowed to be driven above the snow line are Ford Falcon Station wagon, Ford Territory & Ford Fairlanes. These are all 2WD vehicles.
Snow Cover Insurance is compulsory and is $22 per day. The snow cover Insurance does not cover you for any damage as a result of you fitting snow chains or roof racks to the vehicle. Snow chains or roof racks are not available to be hired from the depot.
The Snow Insurance reduces full liability to an Excess of $2,750.00 You are then able to take out one of the standard Insurance Excess Reduction options to reduce this further. They are:
Option 1: Reduce Excess to $385.00 (not including tyre & windscreen damage) by paying an additional $22 per day. Option 2: Reduce Excess to $385.00 (INCLUDES tyre & windscreen damage) by paying an additional $28 per day. Option 3: Reduce excess to $0 (INCLUDES tyre and windscreen damage) by paying an additional $34 per day. If you are wishing to take any of these options please advise upon collection of the vehicle.
We need to advise the depot at least 72 hours prior to collection that the vehicle will be taken to the snow.
EUROPCAR: Any vehicle category can be taken above the snow line as long as the Snow Cover is taken. This is $24 per day. The excess on this is $2,750.00 in the event of any damage done to the vehicle. Cover is void if damage is from the result of snow chains. The depot does not provide snow chains however these can be hired in bright which is about 20 minutes from Mt Hotham.
Europcar recommend you also take one of their excess reduction packages in conjunction with the Snow cover as the snow cover is only valid once you are above the snow line i.e not between the Airport and Hotham.
Europcar has a standard Insurance Excess of $2,750 for their compact 2WD & 4WD vehicles. This can be reduced down to $330 by paying an additional $24 per day. Their premium reduction option to reduce the excess down to $0 is an additional $35 per day. For their large 4WD vehicles the Excess is $5,500.00 which can be reduced down to $990.00 by paying an additional $28 per day. If you are wishing to take any of these options please advise upon collection of the vehicle.
