Cheap campervan hire from Sydney: here's how.

Cheap campervan hire from Sydney: here's how. Sydney is one of Australia's most popular travel hubs but it's also one of the most expensive places to hire a campervan. If you're looking to hit the road without blowing your budget, Imoova relocations are the way to go. Marketing Manager What's A relocation? With Imoova, you can drive a car, campervan or motorhome from Sydney for as little as $1 per day by helping rental companies move vehicles between depots. They save money vs using truckers and you save money vs renting a vehicle - big savings all round! Depending on the route, you can often get a fuel reimbursement too for an even bigger saving. Where can you travel from Sydney? Relocation routes from Sydney open up huge parts of Australia. Common one-way trips include: * Brisbane - the classic East Coast road trip * Cairns - the full tropical coastline adventure * Melbourne - a shorter but iconic journey south * Adelaide - gateway to South Australia's wine regions * Hobart - via ferry for a Tasmanian adventure * Perth - an unforgettable cross-country drive * Newcastle - a quick and easy coastal trip You can tick off bucket list experiences, experiencing the Great Ocean Road, Nullarbor, the Great Barrier Reef & more! Why it's such a good deal. Instead of paying hundreds per day, relocations offer cheap $1/day campervan hire, one way travel without the massive fees, potential fuel reimbursements, and the ability to combine transport & accomodation costs. Imoova partners with major rental companies like Britz, JUCY, Camperman, and Indie Campers so you're getting quality campers at a fraction of the price.
