  • To land the best deal on a cheap MIM rental car, it's a good idea to book in advance. Prices tend to rise as your travel dates get closer, and waiting too long might mean missing out.

  • Grab your wheels from Budget, Avis or Europcar, some of the most reliable providers at Merimbula Airport.

  • Whether you choose Budget or a different supplier, be sure to check the coverage on your Merimbula Airport car rental. Some companies include a collision damage waiver (CDW), while others treat it as an add-on.

  • Booking one-way could save you cash on your car rental. Providers sometimes offer lower prices when vehicles need to be relocated. Just click 'Return car to a different location' when searching for a car for rent in MIM.

  • Search for a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You'll pick up and drop off your car hire in Merimbula Airport with a full tank, so you're only paying for what you use. No surprise refueling fees tacked on at the end either.

  • The real fun starts once you've grabbed the keys to your MIM car rental. You've got the freedom to follow your own road, but if you're headed to central Merimbula, it'll take you around 5 minutes to travel the 3 kilometres or so north-west.

  • You can also reserve a car hire in Merimbula. If you don't need a set of wheels right away, wait until you're in the city and avoid paying for extra rental days.
