Can I rent a one way campervan from Alice Springs?
Yes. One way rentals are a common way to explore Australia. Some providers do charge one way fees for pick-up and drop-offs in Alice Springs.
Do l need to book my campervan in advance?
Do l need to book my campervan in advance?
Where possible it is recommended that you book in advance, especially if you are considering travel during peak periods such as long weekends, Easter, Christmas and School Holidays, or popular destinations vehicles sell out well in advance.
Customers should consider booking 6 to 8 months in advance to secure the best rate and avoid the disappointment of missing out due to supply being exhausted.
Here's why;
Availability
- High demand, limited supply: Campervans are popular, especially in peak seasons (summer, holidays, long weekends, festivals, sporting events). Waiting too long could mean no availability, or being stuck with a vehicle that doesn’t suit your needs.
- Popular destinations get booked out fast.
Better Prices
- Early bookings usually cost less. Last-minute rentals tend to be significantly more expensive due to limited availability.
- Many companies offer early bird discounts.
More Choice
- Booking early gives you the best selection of campervan types, layouts, and sizes. Last-minute bookings often leave only the largest or smallest (less practical or more expensive) options.
Trip Planning
- A confirmed campervan helps lock in your travel plans. It allows you to plan campsites, routes, and activities confidently.
- Some campsites require campervan size/details in advance to reserve spots.
Peace of Mind
- Especially in high season or remote areas, not having a campervan booked can be stressful. Booking in advance means one less major thing to worry about.

Packing tips for Your campervan holiday in Alice Springs
When you embark on a campervan adventure in the Northern Territory you'll want to make sure you're self-sufficient for those long drives through the outback. Make sure you have enough fuel, food, water and any medicines you require.
The Territory is sparsely populated and has long distances between the few towns and roadhouses that populate the Stuart Highway so planning your fuel stops and stocking up is important. With any campervan or motorhome rental using soft bags for your belongs is a good idea as these are much easier to stow than hardback suitcases. Hats, sunscreen cream and fly repellent are all worthy of a mention as essentials.
Your vehicle will be equipped with cooking equipment and bedding. Depending on your chosen vehicle and provider, there may also be extra items that you can hire, such as children's seats, high chairs and fold-out furniture.
