GoCheap Campervans, from simple vans to family overcabs
Born in Tasmania, GoCheap Campervans is an Australian van and motorhome rental company departing from six cities: Hobart, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Cairns and Perth. In our data, its depots are those of Cruisin Motorhomes, at the same addresses, located on the outskirts, such as Caringbah south of Sydney or Kewdale east of Perth.
The fleet brings together five models with an automatic gearbox. The Hi Top comes in two- and four-seat versions; the Tamar, another van for two, is presented by the rental company with a shower and toilet; the Henty (four berths) and the Derwent (six berths) are overcabs. Tamar, Henty and Derwent are three Tasmanian rivers. The vehicles are generally models a few years old rather than new vehicles.
All offers recorded by CoolDrive in October 2026 include unlimited mileage. The excess depends on the model: about €1,860 for the two Hi Tops, about €3,100 for the Tamar, the Henty and the Derwent. Bed linen and an equipped kitchen are generally part of the hire.
Our verdict: a simple formula, with a good choice of sizes and departures from the main cities, Tasmania and Perth included. Weak points: a fleet that is not in the first flush of youth, no 4x4 and no depot recorded in Darwin or Adelaide.

GoCheap Campervans: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?
GoCheap Campervans is ideal if…
- You are travelling as two adults and two children and are looking for a four-seat hi-top
- There are two of you and you want a modest excess: about €1,860 on the two-seat Hi Top
- There are six of you and you need a large overcab like the Derwent
- You are starting your trip in Tasmania, from Hobart
- You want to drive from Melbourne to Brisbane without counting the kilometres
GoCheap Campervans is not ideal if…
- You insist on a new or nearly new motorhome
- You plan to leave the tarmac: no 4x4 in the range, look at Adventure Rentals instead
- You are departing from Darwin or Adelaide, which are not in the network recorded
- You want to collect the van at the terminal, as soon as you land
- Your group is larger than six people
Our tips for booking with GoCheap Campervans
-
Hi Top or Tamar for two?
Both models sleep two people, but not in the same way. The Hi Top focuses on the essentials, with a recorded excess of close to €1,860. The Tamar is presented as better equipped, but its recorded excess is around €3,100: compare the two listings before deciding.
-
For four, hi-top or overcab
For four travellers, there are two choices: the 4 Berth Hi Top, more compact, or the Henty overcab, generally more spacious. The first drives and parks like a large van; the second gives more room for living on board. Seats and berths appear in each model’s details.
-
Inspect the vehicle before setting off
The GoCheap fleet generally consists of vehicles a few years old. At departure, walk around the bodywork with the agent, photograph existing marks, test the fridge and gas, and check the kitchen inventory. Keep the assistance number to hand throughout your trip.
-
Heading up the east coast
Sydney, Brisbane and Cairns each have a depot: a trip along the Queensland coast is tempting. One-way hires depend on availability and the offer: enter your return city in the search to see those offered and their cost.
-
Choose your month carefully
In our records, April is the gentlest period for the budget and October the most expensive. In Tasmania, the southern summer, from December to February, offers the longest days; in tropical Queensland, around Cairns, choose the dry season, from May to October.

How much does a GoCheap Campervans hire cost in Australia?

The median price of a van ranges from €78 per day in April to €116 in October; that of a Henty or Derwent overcab, from €131 to €179 per day. Your exact dates give the final price.
What is the excess with GoCheap Campervans?

Which GoCheap Campervans vehicle should I choose as a family?
With one or two children, the 4 Berth Hi Top stays compact, while the Henty overcab gives more room on board for four. For five or six, only the Derwent is suitable: it is the largest model in the range, with six berths. Check in the listing the number of seats fitted with seat belts.
Where can I collect a GoCheap Campervans vehicle?
Six cities are served: Hobart (Cambridge), Melbourne (Tullamarine), Sydney (Caringbah), Brisbane (Virginia), Cairns (Sheridan Street) and Perth (Kewdale). These depots, shared with Cruisin Motorhomes, are on the outskirts and not at the airports: allow for a taxi or a transfer, and check the opening hours shown in your offer.
What is included in a GoCheap Campervans hire?
Unlimited mileage appears in all offers recorded. The rental company generally provides bed linen (pillows, sheets, towels) and an equipped kitchen with fridge, microwave, gas stove and utensils. Roadside assistance covering the whole of Australia is normally included. The details of your offer remain the reference: read them before booking.

FAQ — GoCheap Campervans campervan and motorhome hire in Australia
Why book GoCheap Campervans with CoolDrive?
In one search, CoolDrive compares GoCheap Campervans, Cruisin Motorhomes, Travellers Autobarn or Camperman departing from your city. The amounts shown already include mandatory fees, and each offer details the excess, mileage and depot address. You can thus spot the difference in excess between GoCheap models, and our experts remain reachable if a question comes up on the road.
What is the link between GoCheap Campervans and Cruisin Motorhomes?
In our data, the two brands share the same six depots, at the same addresses from Hobart to Perth. Their ranges differ: GoCheap Campervans offers five models, including two Hi Top vans, and Cruisin Motorhomes offers eight, including five overcabs. Run a search to compare the two brands for your dates.
Can I do a one-way hire with GoCheap Campervans?
One-way hires between depots are possible depending on vehicle availability, but are not guaranteed. Enter a return city different from the departure city in the search engine: the offers that accept it are shown with any surcharge. The Sydney–Brisbane or Brisbane–Cairns routes, along the east coast, are the most natural.
Are GoCheap Campervans vehicles recent?
Not necessarily: the rental company generally relies on well-maintained models a few years old rather than new vehicles. The exact age varies from one vehicle to another. At departure, take the time to walk around the vehicle with the agent and record existing defects on the condition report, backed up by photos.
Can I visit Tasmania with a GoCheap van?
The simplest option is to hire directly in Hobart, where GoCheap Campervans has a depot in Cambridge, near the airport. Taking a vehicle hired on the mainland onto the Bass Strait ferry is only possible if the offer’s terms allow it. On the island, the east coast, Freycinet and Cradle Mountain lend themselves well to a loop.
Do I need a special licence to drive a GoCheap vehicle?
Generally not: GoCheap vans and overcabs can be driven with a car driving licence. If your licence is not in English, bring an international licence or an official translation. Age and years-of-licence requirements change from one offer to another: read them in the details of yours before booking.
