At Dream Drives, we want to make sure you're covered — without surprises. Every rental includes standard insurance, but if you'd prefer peace of mind with lower excess costs and added protection for common incidents like tyre or windscreen damage, we offer two optional Excess Reduction Packages.

Option 1: Standard Insurance

- Daily Rate: Included in your rental - Excess Payable: $2,500 per incident What’s covered: Basic third-party and collision insurance What’s not covered: Windscreens, tyres, wheels, lost keys, and all minor damage unless you opt for an excess reduction package. Full excess applies to all damage.

Option 2: Basic Excess Reduction

- Daily Rate: $14.75 incl. GST - Excess Payable: $1,000 per incident Benefits: - Lower excess if something goes wrong Does NOT cover: - Windscreen damage - Tyre damage - Cosmetic or structural wheel damage - Lost keys If you're after a more affordable level of cover but don’t need full protection, this plan is a good middle ground.
