The service at Driveaway is excellent, both cars they arranged for us were ideal for our needs, with them ready on time, easy to pick up & deliver. The cost wasn't true, there was always more to pay w... See more
I had to prepay for my tank of gas (over $60 for a Ford Fiesta, which works out to well over $5/gallon even though the local price was $4.35). Since it's impossible to estimate the last few days of... See more

Have only booked car so far; actual use period is in three weeks time. So far everything has worked smoothly and efficiently. My usual hire is from Driveaway in Australia, not NZ as it is this time.... See more

Seamless hire from online reservation, to car itself, to return to depot.
Very good service, from online booking confirmation, to service from staff at St Pierre de Corp. Would definitely recommend and use company again.

Great easy fast service!!
Tried to order a car from a couple other websites but confirmations never came through. As soon as I booked with driveaway confirmation came through in five minutes. Prices were really competitive and the car we ended up renting was awesome. Next time I am looking for a rental car I will definitely use the service again.

No hassle and good quality vehicle
The vehicle we rented is clean and in good condition. It is like good as new. We had no problem with the vehicle and the transaction is easy as. The Dollar rental company is easy to deal with. Highly recommend it.

Booking muckup
Price quoted was very competitive. However when we went to collect car in Las Vegas we found DriveAway had advised Dollar Rent a Car of the wrong date for collection and the length of rental period was for 1 day less. We were able to rearrange collection date but had to return the car 1 day earlier that planned. Drive Away have admitted they made the mistake and agreed to refund 1 days rental.

Awesome service.
On arrival someone was there to meet and greet us. Escorted to the office went through the formalities paperwork checked the car and were out of there within 20mins. I couldn`t get over it as we have hired cars before from Discovery, Samoana which normally takes up to an hour to finalise. The lady in the office and the gentleman who showed us the car and the gentleman who collected the car from us on departure were so friendly I would hire from you again and have recommended Avis to a few friends going back to Samoa. Samoans in nature normally have a relaxed attitude and take their time in doing things but this crew are on to it.

Satisfied +!
My wife abd I travelled for the first time to the States, and had arranged to hire a car from Alamo straight from the airport to head out to Yosemite. The instructions were clear, the buildings easy to find. The staff were friendly andhelpful, the car brand new and the electronic navigation guide a must! We changed our drop off point and the staff were accomodating of this, at no extra charge.Highly recommended and well worth the effort. Thanks

Great service, fast process, good prices.
I've used DriveAway a couple of times now, both for last-minute bookings. I'm impressed with the good prices (better than direct on car rental websites), and the simple booking procedure.

Quick & Easy booking online.
Quick & Easy making this booking online. There were some hidden charges though at the other end with the actual car rental company which added to the cost. Frustrating when all charges arent clearly outlined from the beginning. Other than that the booking experience was good.

Thanks for your review Todd. Your feedback has beed forwarded onto our customer service team for further investigation.
Loved DriveAway!
We found DriveAway on a blog through a Google search for the trip we were planning. The person writing was happy with their DriveAway experience so we looked it up and found the prices to be much better than we found anywhere else. Even though we are from Canada, this NZ company served us seamlessly. Would definitely use them again and recommend to all our friends.
